Quote:The demise of a West Antarctic glacier poses the world’s biggest threat to raise sea levels before 2100 — and an ice shelf that’s holding it back from the sea could collapse within three to five years, scientists reported December 13 at the American Geophysical Union’s fall meeting in New Orleans.
That said I haven't changed any of my carbon producing habits. I also think it is silly to put the burden on individuals. Anyone have plans for how to weather the impending water world?
It’s even sillier NOT to put the burden on individuals. Do you seriously believe that the industries that most contribute to carbon emissions are going to stop doing so out of the goodness of their corporate hearts? *chuckle snort guffaw*
The ONLY thing these entities respond to is economic pressure. As long as consumer demand for fossil fuels remains high, they’re going to go right on belching carbon and whistling all the way to the bank. And don’t depend on government action to force them to behave themselves - far too many lawmakers have been bought and paid for by energy companies and other polluters.
