afterall americans don't believe in global warming and as they say these are normal part of earths cycle.So why do we need to be told this BS?

Answer 1

I answer the non-believers with this .....
Will it hurt you so much to bend over and pick up that can and recycle it, or plan your trips so you don't pump hundreds of pounds of pollution into the air? I mean really, WILL IT??

Answer 2

Personally, I don't put much faith in the man made global warming or any of the so called cures to it. What I do know is that we waste far too much, of everything. There is no denying that we need to find an alternative to burning any fuel even remotely related to gas or diesel fuel, one need only look at Los Angeles or Albuquerque to see this. I am a smoker, while I dislike being told that I should quit, I do realize that the message is correct for the most part, and that none of us benifits from the continuation of this nasty, addictive habit. The real problem is that as long as corporate america continues to profit from all these things, they will continue, while the average individual is asked to sacrifice what they rightfully view as their personal little bad habits.

~Gee, I couldn't agree more, even if I did miss the part of the article that mentions global warming. Hey, why waste our time telling us about a little bad weather in Oklahoma? I mean, that's as much a waste of time as writing about a little rain in New Orleans, or that Iran really isn't building nukes or about buildings falling down when planes hit them in NYC, or about fires in California and all that other useless crap. Fill my paper with real news, I say. So, what are Paris Hilton, Nicole and Brittany up to these days, anyway?

By the way, I really don't think the ice in Oklahoma was shipped in as part of some kind of subversive plot by Al Gore as a propaganda publicity stunt to convince you that maybe global warming is real. Bill O'Reilly maybe, but not Greenpeace. I'd say more, but I've got to go start up my SUV and warm it up for 10 minutes or so, because I've got to run down to the corner store for some disposable razors, some plastic garbage bags and some tin foil. I hope I remember to crank up my thermostat before I leave because it's all the way down to 68 degrees in this place and I refuse to shut the windows.

Answer 4

American's don't believe in global warming? Do you have proof of that or are you just ranting?

Answer 5

You probably believe that the earth is flat, too.
