I agree with you about the fear-mongering that comes from the Alarmist's propaganda.
But you are an example of one of the worst aspects of this man-made global warming "movement": their actions have been so over-the-top that they are turning off many to taking ANY environmental responsibility. The people they should be wanting to be reach the most are demonized. Just look at the negative responses so far. Look at the thumbs-down that Sara e got - and she advocates reduction of fossil fuels! I regularly get multiple thumbs down from the same crowd.
On the flipside of that coin, I would hope that you reconsider your environmental outlook. Even if you think of yourself as an independent individual, you will need to rethink the way you utilize resources: the more you "waste", the less you have. The less you have, the less you enjoy life. If you were to multiply your current attitude by the rest of the population, you would soon find very little in life to enjoy.
Don't get me wrong. I believe that your enjoyment of life is worth MORE than the resources you use - if you were not enjoying life, then you would be wasting resources altogether. The key to this is the same as it is in almost all things in life: finding balance. You can enjoy life AND live in a way that minimizes your negative impact on the environment WITHOUT believing the hype of global warming.

ok,firstly,some people actually care about things other than themselves!you are so selfish in saying that you dont care what the state of the world will be like in the next hundred years or so!!never mind the fact that its already bad now!!
what about your future children?and theirs?or maybe because you're such an idiot you wont ever have kids because no woman could ever put up with you!
the world WILL end,and a major contributing factor is global warming and people like you who live like idiots and pigs!!
its not propaganda,its REALITY. something which you should get in touch with!!!
one day you're going to wish you actually had a brain and did your bit,but by then it will be too late!!

Maybe you are just being satirical - I don't think that anyone gets scared into recycling, if they share your purported attitudes then presumably they just hang out with other wasteful people who don't give a toss.
Anyway, we will not 'save the planet' by recycling, we need to do much bigger things (as well) - reducing what we consume is the first thing that we have to think of, as the average USA person is consuming loads more than an African or Asian, with Western Europe not looking too good either.
If you want to wallow in your ignorant arrogance by all means do so - greenies like me never bother with people like you as your selfishness would almost certainly permeate through your life making you the kind of person I avoid. Unless of course, you are just trying to wind people up.
To the person who says that global warming is not real: you are a total ostrich. There are people who deny the Holocaust in spite of all the evidence. You are presenting with the same extraordinary rationale - you don't believe it because it doesn't suit you to believe it

I have a question for you, in about 30 years when the effects of climate change have reached the point where they can't be reversed (and while you maybe nearing the end of your life) and your children will have to live in a dying world due to people like you. Due to people like you who are so ignorant to open your eyes and look around at a dying world pleading for us TO CHANGE OUR WAYS.
My question is when your children and/or grandchildren ask you, "What were you thinking? Why didn't you do anything?"
What are you going to say?
Think about that the next time you decide not to recycle, or do anything that helps to improve the environment.

a christian person can try to force his views upon a nonchristian, and there will be resentment. however the worst outcome of the nonchristian's refusal to convert will be the frustration of the evangelizing individual. perhaps the loss of a soul too, but that is entirely debatable by others. in any event, the only two affected are the two directly involved.
an environmentalist has much more at stake than just one individual if people are not willing to make needed lifestyle changes. the health and welfare of this generation and countless others (they're called 'descendants', and christians care about them too) depends on the acts of stewardship we take and do not take today. i see that chris above told you as much already...
these "ideas about global warming" hold the keys to making the best use of our environment today, and preserving it in a useful and diverse form for those who are to come.
i see your philosophy is written quite clearly in the last sentence of your question, and it indicates a fascination with the 'here and now' and a lack of interest in the 'there and then'. THAT is the scary thing.
green up.

It’s sparkling worldwide warming/climate substitute is genuine. It’s the two sparkling the > present day < warming cycle has been happening by using fact the final ice age and that’s why the Sahara replaced into grassland 10,000 years in the past yet is barren area in the present day + has been barren area for many centuries. the actuality the present warming trend began long beforehand there replaced into any marketplace and while there have been rarely any people is sturdy evidence people at the instant are not the reason. It additionally skill people at the instant are not the answer. The Earth is going by using consistent climate substitute cycles and has finished so for the period of its historic previous. the suited mechanism isn't nicely understood yet seems to be on the subject be counted of the solar + photograph voltaic interest. word that the Earth is conceivable on the top of the present warming cycle and could initiate cooling quickly (“quickly” in geological words). each and all the carbon tax/carbon offset BS is purely theft or extortion disguised as technology. worldwide places like China and India enjoyed the belief of carbon taxes/carbon offsets – yet basically while they could fake to be “undeveloped”. as quickly because it replaced into stated the two are awful polluters of > each variety < they without notice weren’t so prepared on the belief. basically the worldwide Left and worldwide places like North Korea & Zimbabwe nevertheless love the belief of carbon taxes. The Left loves the belief by using fact they are devoted to destroying the West customarily and the u . s . a . especially. Getting the more desirable worldwide to ruin its very own business base is something they like. Having the West concurrently supply loose guilt-money to worldwide places like North Korea & Zimbabwe could purely make it greater valuable. regrettably, scientific study has been compromised by the politics of the subject. the tutorial community leans some distance to the Left, so researchers who “coach” human-brought about worldwide warming (AGW) are rewarded with greater provides, yet researchers who don’t “coach” AGW locate themselves decrease off. The politics of the difficulty are a difficulty by using fact we actually do could desire to be conscious of the way the Earth works so we are in a position to assume, are watching for, and regulate. We additionally could desire to decrease extremely pollutants that is poisoning our ecosystem, and worldwide places like China & India shouldn’t get a loose holiday.

Nobody is forcing anything on anybody. You geniuses are coming into the Global Warming category and ranting and raving about how much it troubles you to find posts about Global Warming. You are your own problem.

Since you choose to put it that way--
Here's why. The negative consequences of global warming aren't centuries away--but within a very few decades--within the lifetime of most people now living. And--that is proven fact, whether you choose to acknowledge it or not.
And--if some people's actions can be shown to have a negative effect on others, then the other DO have arigt to put a stop to the behavior. So that
s why--self-protection.

I would have stated just the same
Let´s not care about the future. Let´s all join in a big orgy including sex, drugs, violence, vice and not worry about tomorrow and the consequences for the society and the future of the next generations !!!
Yes obviously this is a freedom to to have such kind of life.
----------
No seriously, why should people who don´t give a damn about the future be allowed to decide for it ?
