Why the hell isn't anyone doing anything about it? We all know it exists, we all know what we've got to do, politicians say they'll make a difference but never do anything. We really need to begin to save the world before its too late...it's just typical human procrastination...views and opinions please

p.s. i dont want any crap about global warming not being true

• IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) warned that 13 million Filipinos out of 640 million people, who are living in coastal areas 10 meters above sea level, face the greatest risk from abrupt climate change? -- How was this related to Batangas?

I have most of the stuff in my room (laptop, cell charger, printer) hooked up to one power strip or surge protector. I want to conserve more energy, and I know these devices suck energy out even when not in use or in sleep mode. When I leave for the day/go to bed and want to turn it off, do I have to unplug the power strip from the wall or do I only need to switch it off? Thanks!

Michael Mann became infamous because of his statistical errors and unethical behavior.

Other climate scientists continue to overstate the case for global warming. MIT professor Carl Wunsch thinks global warming may be happening, but it is unhappy with the unscientific statements of his fellow climatologists about specific effects of AGW.
http://www.royalsoc.ac.uk/page.asp?id=4688&tip=1

Wunsch has recently published an online paper trying to teach climatologists the importance of using statistics to keep from jumping to conclusions about global warming.

Climate scientists known for their global warming alarmism are named for their errors.

Why is it necessary for climate scientists to be lectured about the importance of statistics?

This is a question that has come up recently in my advanced course of Enviromental Catastrophes of the 21st Century at Colorado University taught by Professor Von Algoremeister. We need the egologically correct analysis on this issue so that we won't fail this course by actually having another point of view. I hope that I get the answer before there is no more snow around to shovel (every Winter--can't understand that either!) here in Missouri.

So what do environmentalists care most about?

Please answer 1, 2 or 3
Answer 1: The Environment?
Answer 2: Mankind?
Answer 3: Or do you need to care equally about both the Environment and Mankind to call yourself an Environmentalist?

Please feel free to comment on your answer if you wish but a 1, 2 or 3 answer is fine.

Why do you ask questions? Do you just want your question answered? Have you an environmental issue you want to raise?
Are you using your questions as a way to find alternate opinions or views or more information? Why do you ask questions?

Is it interesting to read the questions and answers in Global Warming section, even if you do not feel able to answer the question yourself?

There seems to be people asking questions in Global Warming Section who already seem to know the answer to their own question. Why do you think people who know the answer ask these questions?

The other day ago my family had a family reunion at the park. When we left, the ground was covered with cigarette butts. Well today when I went back to the park, all of the cigarettes was gone. I guess the rain got rid of it.

(One of my co-workers asked this question in another section, and a responder suggested that it be posed to sections populated with environmentalists, and Democrats, respectively. He wanted to do that, but had reached his questioning limit for the day. So I'm doing it for him, which is fine with him. And I'm just as interested in the answers to this as he is!)

The bulk of the oil shale is in Colorado, and Big Oil said, back in the 1980s (when oil was around only $20 or so per barrel) that once the price reached $60 or so, it would be economical for us to start gleaning and refining it. So by NOW, we could be making ourselves TOTALLY independent of foreign oil. So NOW what is Bush's, and Big Oil's, excuse for not doing that?
