If so, do you work for the government or a government contractor?

I just purchased Hoodoba Hoodia Gordonii Plus from an American site as it's the only legitimate company which delivers these diet pills to Australia where they are not sold. Because the pills contain Hoodia from the Hoodia plant found in Africa it's become one of those endagered flora that can only enter this country with a C.I.T.E.S. ceritificate. The website had a legitimate CITES certificate, so does that mean because it is a legal source that is importing the Hoodia to Australia that I will be able to recieve it without it getting caught up in customs.

I just paid $170 US for these dietary pills & i'm really worried I won't get them.

My worst fear is that with the coming reliance on nuclear power then there would be an increased chance of a meltdown somewhere on this planet - i was wondering if those 'greenhouse gases' could contribute to the resulting explosion.

I've been wondering this for a while. I can't find anything on the internet concerned with reversing the damage we've done, only slowing it.

I believe that we're too late to stop devastating global warming. Rising carbon emissions on top of a growing population, widespread deforestation and possibly carbon-sink reversal (which pretty much spells the end, as far as I can see) means that soon the whole house of cards will collapse.

So, given that everything we have done (not much) and everything we're likely to do (not enough) to prevent catastprophy, I believe that civilisation as we know it will fall.

So, in the future, faced with living on an ever more inhospitable planet, is there anything the survivors could realistically do to reverse global warming?

You could remove carbon by encouraging reafforestation, storing it in oil (you can make lots of oils), geo-engineering or maybe something I havn't thought of.

What are the realistic solutions?

I'm trying to figure out what chuda is going on about in this question:

http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=Ahcv_Bibgu9s.zetjaawxfPty6IX;_ylv=3?qid=20070917050525AAjH0xK&show=7#profile-info-a85bd4d28281b52b7bdecfc33cd65da3aa

This is why I wanted to discuss this via email - his additional details are so long that I can't even figure out what he's talking about anymore. He seems to have ignored my response and continues to claim that I'm wrong when I say Hansen's 1988 predictions were quite accurate, and he's even gone so far as to say that Crichton was not wrong when he claimed that Hansen was off by 300%.

Here is my evidence to support my claim. As you can see, up through 2005 Hansen's scenarios B and C were both quite accurate:

http://www.logicalscience.com/skeptic_arguments/models-dont-work.html

Therefore Crichton's claim that Hansen was off by 300% (lie by omission of Scenarios B and C) is wrong.

Can anyone clarify what the heck chuda is arguing?

With all the evidence, with all the scientist who support SGW (Solar Global Warming) why are there still people who try to deny that the Sun is the Earths biggest heat source?

There are many fine scientist, many of them have several PhD's who have spent their entire life dedicated to climate science, yet they are dismissed like they are children. And by whom? Politicians and twenty something’s that believe they know everything about how the world works? Somehow, I think not.

We should listen to these scientist whom over 90% believe that SGW is real, and not to the skeptics and deniers who think warming is man made.

Who do sensible people really trust? I tend to trust thousands of respected scientists who have each given years of their lives to get educated and to conduct research. It wasn't too long agot he public were in denial over the effects of smoking, now people with such views are not so common. Will people who deny global warming and humanity's role in it also be seen as ridiculous in years to come? Can we afford to risk it and do nothing in the mean time?

Some folks in the microbrewing beer business need your help! Some are looking for viable ideas for used beer bottles. One has been approached by people who make concrete into "sparkling" concrete, and now we need new ideas.

Now it's your turn: do you have a good idea for used and broken beer bottles - except for glass recycling in general?
