What is the deal with the whole global warming thing anyway? Everybody is worried that carbon dioxide is causing the earth to warm up. So we are all going to cut down on creating it. So on the count of three....everybody hold your breath for three minutes (30 seconds for all you smokers). I seem to remember from elementary school that trees breathe carbon dioxide...remember? We breath in oxygen and out carbon dioxide, trees and other plants breath in carbon dioxide and out oxygen. (This is the stripped down version, obviously trees and plants don't literally breathe in the way that we do). So the big question is....if we are so worried about the plant like on the planet....why would we want to cut down on the amount of air they have to breathe? I don't rememeber anyone ever saying that too much oxygem would be a bad thing, but if we were running out there would be quite the hue and cry!
Maybe the planet is getting hotter, hell, according to scientists the earth was frozen a few thousand years ago...maybe it just hasn't reached it's temperature peak before it heads back down. I think it's arrogant folly to presume that man's power to control the earth is even close to being able to accidentally cook it. Of course there are other equally reputable scientists who seem to think we're heading in the opposite direction. Click Here for Story.
I think the main point here is that we don't really know for sure what the planet's temperature should be, we don't know why it's rising, in fact we aren't even sure that it's rising. So creating international laws to prohibit the economy from making everyone's lives better, so that we can somehow, maybe, possibly do something to maybe help the earth from either getting too hot, or maybe, possibly getting to cold...we're not sure. REALIZE THAT IT'S ALL POLITICS, WE NEED DO NOTHING!

I have never bought into global warming, atleast in the sense that it would be our demise, I understand that there are educated people on both sides who interpret the evidence differently, and I, not being one of those educated people, don't have a concrete opinion on global warming. However, I wish the alarmist approach to global warming would subside, so other essential environmental actions could be discussed.
