In case anyone wants to know, I've made a list of which major US cities (and some world cities) will be submerged after all of the polar ice caps completely melt. According to latest statistics, oceans will rise 200 feet. I based it on each cities elevation, so some buildings will survive (i.e. New York City).

The pollution from ship exhaust make more sulfur dioxide (SOx) than all the vehicle in the world.
What do you think about that.

CO2 is NOT 'evil'. It is essential to all life on Earth. You simply would not exist without it.
It's disturbing that so many people seem to have lost the ability to think and rationalise. Do you really need a 'cause' to validate your lives? Do you feel that empty and worthless without a common enemy?
You are being made fools of by the media and the more you slowly realise that the more you fight to protect your pride.
The real question you should be asking is; why to you let yourself be led so easily... to paraphrase, 'Who's the more foolish; the fool or the fool who follows him?'

If someone is trying to reduce his or her “carbon footprint” then what is the best way to do so concerning food?

Does organic food take more CO2 to bring it to the marketplace than non-organic?

Does organic food have a shorter shelf life?

If sea level rises due to global warming, then lots of property all over the country, and the world, will get destroyed. Just like so much property in New Orleans. But until recently I lived in a nice shore town, and if I still had a job there I would have considered eventually buying a house there, fully aware of what could happen in the next few decades.

According to information on the EPA web site; "When people reuse things or when products are made with less material, less energy is needed to extract, transport, and process raw materials and to manufacture products."

I am having some difficulty accepting this statement as 100% accurate. The materials obtained from recycled products also need to be transported and processed, don't they? I would think there would be a lot more transporting and processing associated with recycled materials than with virgin materials. Granted it probably requires more energy to extract a virgin material from mother nature versus obtaining the recycled materials. But still, the amount of transporting and processing required of recycled materials must offset that one benefit. Does anyone have any info about this? Where I might locate more information about this aspect of recycling would also be appreciated.

I assume this would take one heck of a lot of hydrogen sulfide. Hydrogen sulfide is quite toxic, so how safe would the process be? What would be the potential environmental side effects of the process? Isn't H2S a significant greenhouse gas all by itself? How would we produce enough hydrogen sulfide to make a dent in global warming this way?

What is more annoying: the fact that this world is going to **** or that there are people who are arguing that global warming is just a leftist popularity contest and doesn't exist, and in the process, trying to stop all global warming solutions? Seriously though I don't get why some people like to argue just for the sake of hearing their own voices! Global warming is real, its not a partisan issue, it is a MORAL issue. It sucks that progress has to be stalled so much by people who want to argue that it isn't true. Why can't people put aside their egos and political identity and just do what is right?!!

If the earth is heating up and ice is melting we have an increase in water in liquid and gas form correct? Isn't the end result an increase in cloud cover that will reflect sun and have a corresponding cooling effect? An anology might be a govenor on an engine maybe?

It is a fact that many commercial greenhouses supply extra co2 to promote plant growth. If there is extra c02 around why don't we see a surge of plant growth on the planet?

I believe that there are still many questions that need to be answered as far as what the true cause of global warming is, and if it can be prevented. However, I have noticed that many American politicians, usually on the democratic side, are strong advocates of global warming and pass legislation to reduce the amount of carbon emissions in American industry.

However, this comes at a price - a great price in the increase of production costs inside America, resulting in many jobs being outsourced to places like India and China, developing nations which have little to no environmental restrictions on production.

With that in mind, this leads up to my question of why are politicans focusing so much on America reducing its carbon emissions in industry, while they are letting other countries with many more people and much worse environmental practices do what they please to destroy the environment while allowing them to take jobs from other places around the world?

Leftists love hierarchical control viz a viz Soviets, China, Cuba, Franco's Spain, Venezula, several baltic/eastern europe countries, -etc. They needed big rallying cries to 'justify' their takeover of a country [fighting imperialism, economic factors, jobs, no wars, utopia laced platitudes, -etc]. Just ask a leftist - they are smart and probably smarter than you! They are not interested in debate for in their minds they have won. Just straighten up and do as we say (they say)

Global Warming is the new rallying point behind which THEY HAVE A PLAN and you my little ones, WILL PAY FOR IT.
Do this, do that, pay this, pay that, buy this, dont ever buy that , control, control... total control.

How do we keep control freaks out of the Global Warming fixes?
