Will we all die from Global warming ?

Question

Or will everyone just start wearing shorts ?

Answer 1

No. Life will go on as normal, global warming or not. Nothing can be done about it anyway, so there is no need to worry yourself needlessly about a non-problem. The same 'scientists' predicted a new ice age coming in the 1970s. That never happened either. Don't sweat it.

Answer 2

Nahhhhhhhh

id say the atom bombs is right now the biggest danger
here is my collection of ends of the humanity

dont worry the planet will survive ,but it is unlikely that we will
many predictions are for the years between 2012 and 2020
Nostradamus,the mayas ,Egyptions Jesus ,and Terrance Mckennas time wave who put the magnetic output of the world into a computor projection that stopped at zero in 2012,this stops the globe and it starts turning into
the other direction ,the resulting change of currents will turn the planet into a giant washing machine cleaning the surface

then there are the meteor ,the gulf of Mexico is the result of one that would have made life exstinct for a while ,this would result in an other ice age if the globe is covered in dust

then there are natural disasters
Volcanos are coming to life everywhere
the weather has giant storms like hurricanes ,tornados ,tidal waves ,earth quackes

a shift of the earth crust ,like a changing of the poles
under Anrarctica were found fosilized tropical plants indication the pole must have been in a different place then (the mainland atlantis is thought to be under it )

Now we got Global warming to contend with (see my answer on global warming)

and the biggest threat to any species of exstinction is ,when there are too little ,and when there are too many ,so overpopulation is also a threat

and the USA appears to be gunning for a global nuclear conflict .it is most likely that this will get us first looking at present politics

the planet will probably survive unless humanities bombs result it to be knocked out of its orbit

so many ends to choose from
if it wasnt so serious it would be rediculous

meanwhile enjoy life .and make the most of it at least we are all in the same boat

Answer 3

Neither... Global Warming/Climate Change is not as big a problem as some would have you to believe. A recent article in the New York Times has even asked Al Gore to stop all the hype:
http://www.nytimes.com/2007/03/13/science/13gore.html?_r=1&oref=slogin That same article talks about Al Gore's claim that the oceans could rise 20 feet is exaggerated by 18.08 FEET! The latest UN study on the subject says the seas could rise a MAXIMUM of 23 inches. Al was only 18.08 FEET off. That, my freind IS hype...

If you look up any global temperature chart on the net, you'll find the earth's temperature has only increased by about 6/10 of one degree (C) - that's 1.1 degree (F), in the last 125 years. So yes, the globe is warming up, but it's not overheating like some would have you to believe. http://data.giss.nasa.gov:80/gistemp/2005/2005cal_fig1.gif

The latest research shows that the methane from cows and pigs is a major factor in the increase of "heat trapping gas". It's actually 23 times more potent as a heat trapping gas than is carbon dioxide. http://www.greenpeace.org/international/campaigns/climate-change/science/other_gases According to the newest UN report on Global Warming, "Livestock are responsible for 18 per cent of the greenhouse gases that cause global warming, more than cars, planes and all other forms of transport put together." http://news.independent.co.uk:80/environment/article2062484.ece

So if Al Gore and all the alarmists really want to do something about climate change, they MUST become vegetarians and shut down cow and pig farms. I mean seriously, if they truly believe that global warming is as disastrous as they are preaching then they need to stop eating meat, period! I doubt that will happen. If not, then they are the hypocrites that some of us already suspect they are.

Also Al Gore preaches to you to conserve, but he does not practice it himself. He uses 20 times more energy in his Nashville mansion than the national average. http://www.tennesseepolicy.org/main/article.php?article_id=367
One thing he has not learned is that you MUST practice what you preach... at some point you will get caught as he has.

Answer 4

Neither.

In rich countries people won't die. But fixing the damage to coastal areas and to agriculture will cost hundreds of billions of dollars and lower the standard of living.

In poor countries already struggling to feed themselves many people (not all) will die of starvation due to damage to agriculture.

There's no need to exaggerate the danger of global warming. The reality is bad enough. The worst natural disaster in history.

Answer 5

Yes i guess we all dont want to hear it but i think we should be living everyday on earth as if its our last. Nobody can predict whats going to happen...but with all these natual disasters happening may be its god's way of warning us that the world is collapsing and heating up the earths core...which one day is going to explode...

Answer 6

You might not, but your children will. You should not breed. The secret to survival is intelligent design ;-)

Answer 7

No, but it will probably get very unpleasent for a while.

Answer 8

You need some pills, SERIOSLY!!!
