  7. Climate change is a global issue for several reasons, not just environmentally, but economically, politically and ethically.

    Environmentally, climate change will result in a rise in sea level from the melting of polar ice caps and glaciers. This will cause phytoplankton (microscopic organisms that produce 70-75% of the worlds oxygen, and live within the ocean) to be thrown deeper into the water. Sunlight is nessecary in the process of photosynthsis, and as the sea rises the phytoplankton will not be able to recieve enough sunlight to produce oxygen. Geograhically, islands will disappear underwater, changing the shape of the worlds continental land masses entirely.

    Economically, homes will have to be relocated, energy sources must be changed, ultimately the industrialization of the world must take a new path-environmentally friendly.

    Politically, the United Nations must come together and radically review and create new laws, such as the kyoto protocol (an international framework convention on climate change).

    And finally, ethically there are many moral issues the world are presented with as a result of climate change. Who is going to pay compensation for the damage caused by climate change, especially in developing countries? How do we establish who lives and who dies as the ice melts and the seas rise? Is it the developed nation’s responsibility to sacrifice obsessions of wealth and success for the good of everyone?  

    Currently humans are producing 7 billion tons of carbon per year. For temperature stabilization only 2.5 billion tons of carbon can be produced annually. How do we allocate who gets to use this, and how much? Should it be a user-pay system? Will this distort the global economy? The need for action is necessary at a global level. If others don’t act, why should we?

    Hope this helps!


  8. America's "Inconvenient Fraud" - he's the environmental activist whose 20-room mansion and pool house devour nearly 221,000 kilowatt-hours of electricity a year - more than 20 times the national average. His name - Al Gore, the Academy-Award winning producer of the pro-global warming fraud, "An Inconvenient Truth."

  9. Because it is the AGW alarmists that have created the current high consumption of carbon based fossil fuels situation, not the deniers and skeptics whose ideas would have led to high tech clean solutions more than 30 years ago. The central core of every argument or dissertation put forth by the alarmists is the same one put forth in the bible of the National Socialist New Left that clearly states a policy that denies the existence of 99.9% of humanities physical and material resources. This book called “The Limits to Growth” published and funded by group of billionaire elitists called the club of Rome makes the false assumption that we as a race have already discovered and are consuming every possible resource that is in existence and when we finish consuming them there will be no more forever.

    This report was written by and funded by people with small minds and limited knowledge of the world and the solar system. It is a group of inbred blue blooded morons that because they have inherited great riches from their grandfathers and a staff to manage them for them they are like gods in their glory directing the fate of the whole planet and all that live on it. In all truth the world and its people would be much better off if all these blue blooded parasites would just stop breeding and die off like Darwin predicted the useless evolutionary dead ends should.

    Right over our heads in near space we have access to ten times the resources we can mine on the earth. And if we go past Mars to the asteroid belt and the moos and rings of Jupiter, Saturn and Neptune there we will be able to access a million times what we have on earth. In orbit around Saturn alone is up to 10 times the amount of water to be found on Earth in nice handy frozen chunks ready for transport. The asteroid that passed between the earth and moon a dew years back and scared the liberals out of their skins contained more high quality nickel iron than we have mined on earth since we discovered the use of it 3,000 years ago.

    Alarmists deny the plenty that surrounds us in the new frontier and like their predecessors before Columbus deny the riches to be found out there just a step over our heads. But then it always has been the skeptics who deny the existence of limits that have explored new frontiers and opened things up so the cowardly can follow and steal it away from the productive.

    The limits to growth of the head in the sand alarmists who would deny the human race its future of plenty so they can hog what’s here for themselves.

    A link about the future and the new frontier of plenty for all of humanity if they will only reach out and work for it.

    How to reach this dream vote for any party except the democrats and the greens this year for all offices. Throw the Luddite bums out and maybe the world can be saved for future generations! Then the Jimmy Carter anti technology edicts can be reversed for the good of the American people and the world.
