They say that after we build a base we will be able to build solar satelites that feed the earth with solar energy...kind of like solar harvesters...

Statistics predict that harvesting just 1% of the solar energy on the moon would end our fossil fuel dependency world-wide. Thoughts.

After reviewing such data it becomes a lot more apparent the usefulness of such an endeavour, instead of just a hollow idea for national prestige.

The world population is six billion,if each person planted ten trees per year, that makes sixty billion trees.If everyone carried on planting trees for the next five years that would make 300 billion trees.After five years you will have cut down on global warming. Everyone would continue on planting trees and if everyone used wood to burn instead of oil and elec the energy problem would be solved too.

Ok, the saliant points as I see them,

1. Asthetics and knowledge for its own sake (the world seems like a better place with wilderness and varied animals) 2. Technological advancement (new medicines, perfumes, tastes can be discovered, as well as inspiring technologies). Most primary forest ecosystems have barely been explored. 3. Collapse of certain key species could precipitate the collapse of a whole ecosystem. The possible ramifications for humanity could be a loss of services that we require to survive. For example desertification.

The issues are 1. Most endangered environments are in the poorest regions of the world where people can barely get enough food to eat, and fall easy victim to preditors and elephants. 2. Corporations are being prevented from making large profits from wood or other natural resources. 3. Poor people need farmland, bush meat and wood to feed themselves, the only place to get these resources is their surroundings.

I'm not an activists, but I always see PETA activists and other animal rights activsts in the news with picket signs and protesting for whales, deer, and bears, Oh my. etc... Mostly all cute, or beautiful animals. If they supposedly care so much about all animals, why don't they protest the needless slayings of opssums on the roads of America. Or protesting the stores that sell the rat killing poisons and/or devices. Either go all out or don't do it at all. Oh, and also, owning anything leather, well, that just like wearing or sitting on a big slab of beef jerky isn't it?

As high school student in the mid seventies, I raised the question then. I tried to raise a red flag, but was largely ignored. Now there is a looming global threat. Iam not going to say i told you so, but what i will ask, is why more attention was not paid to the effects of pollution on the ecosystems thirty years ago?. I fell that everyone knew, but largely ignored the scientific findings, until scientists themselves began to raise red flags. This is the only planet we have and as stewards of earth, we have failed.

well i researched global warming it took me a while and i wanted to know people's opinion , well here it is -

global warming - well actually the truth of global warming

in this piece { and yes i like calling it that , it gives it a sense of importance } you will learn how global warming started , y global warming is a myth { however the symptoms of global warming are not , not in the wildest imagination } u will also learn what are actually causing these so called symptoms , so keep reading .

to understand global warming we have to go back in time { so slip in the new clay aiken cd , because a thousand days and a thousand nights are not enough } and off we go . welcome to february 1972 where an article sponsored by the world association of world federalists appeared in a magazine titled the humanist { the magazine of the american humanist association } in this article the world association of world federalists said and i quote -

" world federalists belive that the environmental crisis facing planet earth is a global problem and therefore call for a global solution - a worldwide united nations environmental agency with the power to make decisions stick . wawf has submitted a proposal for just such an agency to be considered at the 1972 u.n. environmental conference to be held in stockholm . "

the momentum gathered from the u.n. environmental conference and because of the power the wawf held led to { u guessed it } the united nations environmental program or unep { which officially started the global warming movement and debate } . the first executive director of unep was the canadian millionaire who made his money in oil - maurice strong , the man who was the secretary general of the stockholm conference . anyway lets move on , in 1990 in a speech addressing the global forum conference mikhail gorbachev said and i quote -

" the ecological crisis we are experiencing today - from ozone depletion to deforestation and disastrous air pollution is tragic , but convincing proof that the world we all live in is interrelated and interdependent . this means that we need an appropriate international policy in the field of ecology . only if we formulate such a policy shall we be able to avert catastrophe . true , the elaboration of such a policy poses unconventional and difficult problems that will affect the sovereignty of states . "

then in 1991 a good friend of maurice strong named lester r. brown a member of the council on foreign relations { cfr } , put out a report which stated and i quote -

" the battle to save the planet will replace the battle over ideology as the organizing theme of the new world order , with the end of the ideological conflict that dominated a generation of international affairs , a new world order , shaped by a new agenda , will emerge . "

then in 1992 came the united nations earth summit which was held in rio de janerio and brought together the world governments and the best known environmentalists and who was the secretary general at this conference { yes u guessed it , gold star for you } maurice strong . at this very conference came a speech from the former secretary of state of the united states under richard nixon - henry kissinger - which stated and i quote -

" today americans would be outraged if u.n. troops entered los angeles to restore order , tomorrow they will greatfull. this is epically true if they were told that there were an outside threat from beyond , whether real of promulgated , that threatened our very existence . it is then that all peoples of the world will plead with world leaders to deliver them from this evil . the one thing every man fears is the unknown . when presented with this scenario , individual rights will be willingly relinquished for the guarantee of their well being granted to them by their world government . "

i'm sure ur thinking what is the point of all this , well the point is if u haven't noticed my little green bugs of displeasing , that global warming was started to control , period . that is its purpose . there is no truth what so ever to global warming , it was , is and will probably always be , used to control other countries , average peoples lives and everything in between , its that simple . it has nothing to do with particles of dust in the air . if it did then how come people cant see the hollywood sign in california and can clearly see straight ahead in new york , the answer - because the earth is self sufficient . the politicians who constantly talk about global warming know this , that is the only reason they are pushing this , unless of course they are totally brainless and the media pushes it because they do what there told , and the celebrities who push global warming either don't know and are being manipulated or actually belive that they are doing a good thing . so now lets get down to the symptoms of global warming which u most likely won't see on the news and the u.n. , politician's , etc. has known about for years .

hold onto your hats and strap in those seat belts because here we go - the symptoms of global warming is caused by { get ready } - the earths energy field { yes u read that right } , we are now according to a number of scientists experiencing a cycle called procession something that happens every 26,000 years where the earth will stop spining and half the earth will be left in darkness for a number of days - just let me explain . the earth is a giant magnet with different levels rotating to create a magnetic field . however the earth is spining faster and faster and the more powerful it spins the more dense the magnetic field . two thousand years ago the earths rotations reached its peak according to a california scientist named gregg braden and has been falling ever since . the earths rotation called base resonant frequency or schumann cavity resonance was first identified in 1899 . between 1899 and the mid 1990's the earth maintained a constant pulse of around 7.8 hertz or 7 cycles a second . by the end of 1995 it had increased to 8.6 last i checked it was 12 and still rising . gregg braden says that the earth is spinning out of control and will indeed stop , he say's this will happen he belives on december 12 , 2012 . he calls this zero point when the earths magnetic field will disappear because the planets rotation will have stopped . however before u go jump out that window my friend this does not mean we will fall off the earth as gravity is a different energy all together . the earth will spin again , however the other way around and east will become west and west will become east . this has happened in history at least 14 times in the last 4.5 million years , the last one is said to have happened in about 11 - 13,000 bc . this is essentially what is causing floods , famine , the melting of the polar icecaps , ozone depletion and terrible weather around the globe - the earths rotation or lack there of . this according to gregg braden and many scientists who have been told to shut up and keep quiet when they present this fact to government officials who don't want to hear it , y ? well scroll up and read y and next time try and pay attention .

Try to keep in mind that history has shown cyclical warming and cooling trends, so the temperature rising does not count as proof.

Also, Can you even prove that a warming trend is detrimental?
