It's scary. Rent 'Inconvient Truth' at the movie place...anyone who is in denial is uneducated. A huge piece of the iceberg just broke off, not good.

Warming is happening and it's happening fast. If the ice continues to melt our oceans will rise and ocean and global temperatures will rise. And we'll begin seeing even 'more' extreme weather.
Humans are trashing the planet and denying that they are doing any bad at all. Yes the earth will probably dry up at some point and we'll be without water and everything will die but you and I will not be around to see it happen. Which is why we need to make sure our actions today are positively influencing the health of our planet.

Hey people- call it "Climate Change" and that will address the "coldest winter" some people are talking about above. There's no need to panic but it's a good time to start behaving more responsibly about how we affect our planet. Greenhouse gasses and carbon emissions SUCK friends.... it's not a "natural phase the earth goes through". The 3 warmest years in recorded history have been in the last 10. My advice, move inland and turn off some lights!

Please! ... We're having a huge snow blast of the century in many areas of the world.......
Don't be brainwashed by school, the media and politicians who are not experts in the field!
Its highly debatable whether humans are influencing global warming. Every 11,500 years, the earth goes through a major extinction with a global warming and cooling phase (ice age.) Paleontologists are able to track this through soil samples. We may actually be headed into an ice age because we are coming to the tail end of the current cycle. The problem is that the media and politicians get focussed on a piece of the puzzle and try to simplify this issue. Don't be fooled. There is probably nothing humans can do. Even if we could, there is no way you can control China who is becoming a major world polluter. Humans will need to adapt to climate change. Where I live there are small changes in our weather pattern, but nothing major. A lot of the media is hype to sell newspapers. The only caution is that some past climate changes have been more radical, swinging wildly from hot to cold. Others have brought on instant and severe cold conditions. I know the area that I live used to be buried in hundreds on feet of ice, but temperatures are mild today... Humans will just need to wait and see what mother nature brings and adapt as necessary.
Enjoy the Coldest weather in centuries..............

i'M 58 AND When I was in 6th grade we had to practice closing the blinds and getting under our little desks. Closing the blinds was going to protect us from the flying glass and the desk from the collapsing building. No one said anything about the radiation. I guess we were to get creative with that one.
When gasoline went from 30 cents to a dollar it was the end of the world for sure.
The point is, the longer you've been around, the more this is more of the same. It seems ironic to me that the "solution" to this one is to burn more coal for electricity and stay inside with the airconditioning...A little world history would tell us that we live incredibly rich and perhaps that don't last forever.

we wouldnt have any problems if people in the world would save energy and stop polluting the air. Its very simple, but people just don't care. They dont think about what they are causing and that they're jeopardizing our future generations with all the pollution.

The earth is not going to crumble, we are not going to die. There is global warming, there is nothing we can do about it but live with it.
