No evidence it is caused by humans?? Whether you use the term global warming or not, from the 'throw away' attitude of the previous generations and products made from materials like plastic that are non biodegradable that we simply throw to the dumps (when we can easily use more efficient materials) to the fact we now have millions of cars roaming the planet and ice caps melting how can you state that it is unsure it 'will be of any danger to us in the long run'?!?
And what about the animals who live in the wild whose habitats are being destroyed by this? I feel sorry for the people who have to live in this world in the future if we are just going to pass this problem off as not our fault.
Emotionalism is not any help HOS. The planetary population HAS been working for the past 70 years to address climate change and pollution. We're lucky that many are now running around like chooks with their heads cut off - aka mainstream- and striving to actually DO something to reduce pollution. In the end though it is going to come down to overpopulation of the planet I am thinking.
