Go put some tinfoil in a microwave, watch the after-effects and then imagine that on MUCH bigger scale.
That's what.

Our world will not change in any way at all due to our doing something or nothing about global warming.
Global warming is one-half of the climatic cycle of warming and cooling.
The earth's mean temperature cycles around the freezing point of water.
This is a completely natural phenomenon which has been going on since there has been water on this planet. It is driven by the sun.
Our planet is currently emerging from a 'mini ice age', so is becoming warmer and may return to the point at which Greenland is again usable as farmland (as it has been in recorded history).
As the polar ice caps decrease, the amount of fresh water mixing with oceanic water will slow and perhaps stop the thermohaline cycle (the oceanic heat 'conveyor' which, among other things, keeps the U.S. east coast warm).
When this cycle slows/stops, the planet will cool again and begin to enter another ice age.
It's been happening for millions of years.
Humans did not cause it.
Humans cannot stop it.

The media has a habit of reporting on the end results of international warming and in many situations sensationalising the situation. in spite of everything, this sells papers and grabs audiences. much less interest is paid to the ordinary, mundane stuff it particularly is happening. and there is particularly some stuff happening which contain extensive study into the way you are able to cut back and / or opposite international warming. In Europe and a few Australasian countries politicians have already finished particularly a lot. specially circumstances they have imposed taxes to cut back emissions, the two although they have made obtainable financial incentives for people who cut back their emissions. there is much extra that they may be doing yet politicians are specifically in contact approximately votes. issues that could desire to impact their possibilities of re-election tend to get positioned off interior the wish somebody else will cope with it or it is going to bypass away.

The same way it's been changing for thousands of years. The earth is an evolving thing. If it wasn't we wouldn't be here. It's also very resilient. There's nothing we can do that the earth can't handle. By the way, did you know that a single volcanic eruption puts more pollutants into the atmosphere than we could do in 100 years?

Burning of fossil fuels at the unprecedented rate at which this is now taking place is not a "natural" activity like the eruption of volcanoes or other such acts which evolved with the earth since its earliest times. My answer to fears of global warming and impending doom is that we cannot tell for sure how the planet will handle it to ENSURE OUR SURVIVAL ON IT. We may perish in the process, but the planet will recover and continue on its predestined course without us. We should remember that we as humans are "mere latter-day products" of this planet. It came into existence billions of years before we were evolved (or created or whatever word you prefer) and I cannot see any logical reason why it cannot continue on its course without us. For our own sake, it may pay to act on the side of caution rather than recklessness.

This world is headed for a disaster of biblical proportions.
Real Wrath-of-God-type stuff. Fire and brimstone coming down from the skies."
Rivers and seas boiling!
40 years of darkness, earthquakes, volcanos.
The dead rising from the grave.
Human sacrifice, dogs and cats, living together... mass hysteria!

The planet will die and us with it. Unless we SERIOUSLY take steps to save ourselves and our planet we will eventually become extinct. Al Gore is on track rather we like him personally or not. The facts are in our face that back up what his message is. Do something NOW! Those lining their pockets, getting rich at the planets demise must soon come to realize "YOU CAN'T TAKE IT WITH YOU!". We all must change, roll back the clocks live a gentler lifestyle. Forget the Bling-Bling and start cleaning the water and growing trees not building more houses and commercial real estate. How many food stores and clothing stores does one need?? Save the wildlife if they don't survive neither will we!!! Wake up People!

reality check -- absolutely nothing has polluted and caused more damage on Earth than mankind has since the last ice age.

All you have to do is stay tuned.
Not enough is being done anyway and even if everything that could be done were done, it still might be ineffective.
Remember: The weeds always win. Nature bats last.
