What are YOU doing about Global Warming?

[Big Train]

I've put a lot of money into alt. energy stocks and I'm creating a lot of green in many senses.

Come to Siberia with me sometime and I will show you there is no shortage of trees. That's all you see from the Trans Siberian railroad for thousands of miles.

Dude, one volcano going off in 1815 put enough aerisol emitions into the atmosphere that it created a mini ice age for sevral years. One volcano. It's in Indonesia and the crater is five fucking miles across.

Just north of where I live is Yellowstone National Park. The largest volcano in the world. The culdera is 30 fucking miles across and could erupt at anytime. The result would be catastrophic and black out the sun for a year. Kiss lots of species and plantlife goodbye.

Not too long ago, they found dead bison in the Norris area of the park. What was happening is some of the geothermal vents were emitting toxic gas that settled into the low areas where the bison were. Yup, nature creates toxic gas as well. The whole park stinks like sulfur and emits sulfur dioxide into the atmosphere. Gyser water is caustic and will eat the paint off your car.

This being said, I can no longer ride my snowmobile in the park because it emits sulfur emitions.

There once were lots of plants and animals that were here that are no longer here. Go to dinosaur national monument in eastern Utah to see the big lizards that used to run around there. Funny, whole species were wiped out never to return and man wasn't around to blame for it.

If the volcano at Yellowstone goes off we're all dead, it's apocalypse.

You'll be dead right away and it will take a few weeks before it's all over for the rest of us.

A lot of the usual confusions in this thread. It's not global warming it's climate change. Some places getting warmer can also make somewhere else get much colder. So for example the West coast of the US will fry whilst the East coast gets more and more storms and floods.

For fuck sake you lost a whole city last year and the penny still hasn't dropped...

I firmly believe we should take care of the environment. It really pisses me off when I see people throwing trash out of their cars. Littering is just wrong. The neighborhood I live in uses recycling bins and everyone participates. As far as this planet goe's I think Mother Earth is at the end of her rope with the human race. It is only a matter of time before a cataclysmic event takes place and we join the dinosours in fossil land.

Gotta love the scarcity of liberals taking part in this thread. Tons of threads bitching about the way things are, but when it comes to a thread that invites contributing and building "that better world", where the fuck are y'all???

A city under sea level in Hurricane Alley with crappy levees. It was a situation bound to happen.

I was waiting for someone to mention the mini ice age.

What we really should start worrying about, instead of sitting and blamming loggers and saving the trees, are the coral reefs. Everyone complains that man is causing the high temperatures in the ocean, but what they fail to realise is that the coral reefs remove all the carbon dioxide and stabilize temperatures in that region. But now they're all dying of the white plague whichs helps spike up temperatures, then hurting the ones that haven't caught the disease yet. But we'll complain about logging, which replants the trees.

Hey people, it's fishing season!!!!

Time to pull some bass and crappie out of my local lakes.

Gotta keep the fish population down, ya know!!!

I'm all for packing my trash out and taking care of the environment but it's gotten rediculouse. We are paying out the ass for energy in the western United States because we can't build new power plants. Nobody wants a coal power plant but what they don't relise is we can build them now with really low emissions and we have the best coal in the world to run them on.

Theres all this talk of running cars on hydrogen. It will never happen without cheap electricity. You can make hydrogen from sea water with electricity but you have to have a lot of it. Coal is the key to the hydrogen problem but no way are we going to do that.

Most environmentalists know nothing about the environment.

Something in the world is going to bite your ass. Pick a problem because theres always a thousand more. Maybe it's the smart people who stay on a constant herion buzz until they kick off on an overdose.

I'LL SAY!!!

I keep my car tuned up and try to use synthetic oils if I'm driving something newer (lowers emissions, increases mileage, and you change it less often)...

I religiously recycle and even pick up litter from fuckers that throw empties out of their cars when I take long walks.

I vote only for candidates that make this an issue.

I support the exploration of alternative fuels such as wind-farms and solar...

So I guess you didn't vote for Kerry then, since he didn't say three words about it during the 04 campaign?

So I guess you don't have anything good to say about those hypocrites the kennedys who are blocking the buidling of windmills on their beloved Martha's Vineyard b/c it would ruin their precious skyline...

[LoungeMachine]

I'm doing my part by doing nothing other than Lounging......

No heat generated by ME this summer.

Unlees of course, you count my multitude of Air Conditioner Units all set at DEEP FREEZE.

Glad I could help
