My additional detail is all the scientific evidence of global warming.

In addition to the question, I would like the Yahoo editors place this question on the ask! homepage.

This is a real question. Not some polyana junk a celeb would ask.

All the doubters need to do some investigation.

Anyway, I think it's funny when people say you need to do the best you can do, it's an individual effort. I'm sorry, but it's not.

Our government allocates about 1 billion to fuel cell developments for the auto industry. Unfortunately it takes at least 100 times that to make an impact within a short time frame.

Did anyone see the recent proposal to allocate 130 Billion to war efforts?

I guess this is typical American short sightedness.

If any of this doesn't make sense, rent the movie Idiocracy.

God? Google "FSM"

That's just not scientific. Please don't post on my questions again. You're brainwashed.

Hoax?

This is crazy.

Look up "normal process variation" ... this will explain your post.

If you actually research global warming you will see that humans are adding chemicals to the atmosphere at unprecedented levels...and there's a direct correlation to global warming.

Again, this is science, not opinion.

Look at Dons post below...notice how he is over 40 years old & how he is completely uninterested in facts. Maybe he just can't use his computer very well. Oh well.

This is false. If so civilization would have ended in the 1950's. In the late 1890's through 1900's we witnessed a climate change just as we have now. I was reading a journal in our local newspaper and when were getting 70F weather in December near Philly the journal of a Doctor in 1906 recorded the same temperature throughout the week. These dates fall into the Industrial Revolution era. Evidence that the Earth can correct itself in my opinion. Don't be fooled by environmental wackos who need a little attention and money. Do your own studying into the issue. Now I am all for cleaning up environmental hazards but global warming is a hoax.

Fuel Cells won't work until they can get the horsepower out of them without the cost to the consumer plus they are highly explosive.

Your wrong look up the temperature patterns in the early 1900's. Open your mind buddy your brainwashed by environmental wackos. It was above average temperatures in the early 1900's and they evened out just like they are now and they will even out later. So right now as you babble on about global warming I will bundle up and go outside to the record freezing temperatures we are getting. While your single minded brain is on the computer, look up the poor weather reports in the late 1800's and early 1900's and look up theories on how the environment can stabilize itself.

We are more likely to end civilization by nuclear war than by climate change in 45 years. Civilization has survived war and famine in the past and will likely survive the effects of global warming. There could be less civilization, but I doubt that there will be no civilization. The worst case scenario is that a 5 C rise in temperature melts methane hydrates leading to an additional 30 C rise in temperature. That scenario could end civilization, and most life on earth, but it would take more than 45 years to play out.

I am a 45 year old smoker, with no children. (Wait, I have to turn up the heater). I will be 90 if I live that long. I think that all of this global warming hoopla is reminiscent of "Chicken Little". It is arrogant of man to believe that we could influence our climate. I plan on conserving energy because I was taught not to waste, and because I wish to lower my utility bills, not because of anything Al Gore says.

i have common this stuff for 35 years. Many fellow environmentalists for longer nevertheless. It brings a wierd type of melancholy that extra all and multiple seems starting up to understand those truths, unusual because my attitude is and ever has been - we are able to fail. Sorry, i'm a pessimist. The atom bomb and moon landing analogies are telling. those endeavors succeeded precisely because we were in competition. the merely element that drives us to cooperation is the straightforward probability. yet the following we've the frog in boiling pot problem. with assistance from the time adequate human beings understand that gigantic coordinated international authorities action is needed, we will be previous the tipping factors and it will be no longer a threat to undo the wear. we've human beings the following who nevertheless imagine it truly is a good element that an airline flight can value below a taxi journey. they do no longer understand of the authentic hierarchy of issues. The arbitrary economic constructs of humanity are secondary to the surroundings on which all of us remember. what's going to ensue contained in the authentic international? Governments that embody sparkling means and environmental sustainability will be in a position take care of their economies. The others gained't. in spite of everything, innocuous all and multiple seems death and many extra will die from our state of no pastime. i'm no longer merely speaking about climate change, i'm speaking about our cutting-edge equipment of international governance that places income earlier than human lives, income earlier than our surroundings. until eventually this adjustments we are able to stay on the direction to international environmental give way. For all you freakish conspiracy mongering denialists i'm no longer hostile to competition and income. i'm for a real accounting of costs.

College students don't know their power. It was the anti-war rallies, marches, demonstrations in the late 60s and early 70s that ended the Vietnam War.

No one else is going to demonstrate in the numbers it will take to force our government to compel the fossil fuel giants to go green.

College students: save the world!

Hehe, God will probably beat the climate. I read the end of the Bible and I don't think it is going to be the climate that kills mankind. :) hehe
