Scientists are claiming that global warming could cause an ice age again. BUT, how did the FIRST ice age occur? Humans sure didn't do it with our factories because, well, it was toooooooooo long ago. So, if WE didn't cause the first ice age, how did it occur in the first place? I can speak for everyone here that global warming must not have happened, and if it did, then its very strange.

The technology to do so is already being devolped when it is fully devolped should using it on every coal power production plant in the world be one of the main parts of any future global warming treaties, that if the US signs onto and pushes for would result in the vast majoriety of other nations following it's lead in adopting it? This would end coal power productions emissions and by doing so would remove that source of global warming climate change or carbon loading of the atomsphere, whatever one wishes to call it, greatly helping reduce it. Of course this would have to be only one of many solutions to this problem though if it works why not do it? Wouldn't this be a way for the US regain it's leadership position in the world? Of course the conversion would have to be as cheap as possible to install and use to enable poorer nations to afford it as well as help keep global energy prices low and the global economy running as smoothly as possible. Would doing this be right?

Ok, so does a candle work out more environmentally-friendly than a lightbulb (let's say, a 60W incandescent)?

One thing to consider is that 2/3rds of power generated at a power plant is lost - from the lines - on the way to the consumer.

So for some ambient lighting, does the candle beat the light bulb?

GO!

Ignoring effects of added mass due meteorites or other extraterrestrial objects, does increasing human population increase the overall mass of the Earth? It would seem that it should not, given that humans and animals are comprised of Earthly stuff like water and minerals. If that's true, it would imply that increasing human and animal populations would require a commensurate reduction in the amount of plant mass on Earth, resulting in no net change to the Earth's mass.

True or not? Justify your answer!

Corollary: If increasing human and animal population requires an offsetting reduction of plant life, how long will it be before there is insufficient plant life to sustain animal life on Earth? Is there a "break even" point? Is it already here, and is resulting in the extinction of certain species, or would such extinction occur anyway?

Enjoy!

Ok, so I would like to know what side of this debate everyone is on (because, news flash to al gore, there are still two sides). Please say whether you are for it or against it, and also if you have researched the arguments of both sides, or whether you go with whatever side suits your fancy. Thanks!

They aren't all warning people who won't understand. Do you have hopes some are planning a way to save our species from nuclear war or global warming?
