Hey,
There are two tings here, "global warming" and "climate change". Global warming may not be as accurate a term. But climate change is very, very real unfortunately. It isn't necessarily about getting warmer, just about the organization of things changing.
We are going somewhere, and there's no going back. We will tell our grandchildren (those of us that don't have some yet) about how we lived on an earth that hadn't changed for thousands of years. Our grandparents say 'remember before TV', we will say 'remember when there was salmon'. It's all coming apart. DLF is right, plant as many trees as you want, but the real need is to stop the logging corps from cutting them down.
Same as when they tell us to take shorter showers. Like that helps. About 80% of the water that is used is used by agriculture and industry. Make them take shorter showers first.
But I hate to see people saying global warming is not real. Because it is a poor term, but climate change is very much undeniable. Search Oceanic Dead Zones, Salmon numbers, The great pacific garbage patch, forest destruction.
Now we've found something I am militant about, environmentalism. Bet ya I'm more radical than all youse...
