Subject | Global warming IS an oxymoron: it's global climate change! |
Comment | Warming is just one consequence of human activity, be it from burps of cattle, cars or burning forests by the acres per minute... Warming is one of many negative consequences from melting ices which raise the ocean levels, fluorocarbons which depletes ozone which increases solar heating. Other more remarkable effects of human activities include wasting of oceans which destroys the carbon retaining qualities of sea life; overfishing which changes the eco-balance to favor o-2 depleting species; economic subsidies to industries exploiting energy sources with both huge carbon footprints and enormous polluting, health and environmental costs as are the cases with coal, oil, 'nucular' and 'natural gas'. All these confluences impact the earth in a highly negative fashion independent of their specific 'warming' effects. It is not a case of just one or two million people polluting and laying waste, but an issue of 2 BILLION people doing this and another 3 billion aspiring to do this! If we should put a cap on our survival; we should also be bold enough to allocate by country population, a percentage of our society to be exterminated for the purpose of eventual survival at a specified level of suffering in a hostile world which is left to them. |
