People need to get their heads out of their collectively globalized behinds and take a sniff of the future.

Conservative professors that have to hide their true beliefs, conservative students attacked, conservative students not allowed to voice their opinion, etc etc etc.

You or anyone else can argue all you want about the Global Warming, or the Anthropogenic Global Warming or the Global Climate Change or Global Climate Disruption.
It is ALL hogwash. All you have to do is go to the end of the argument. What happens if we stop all carbon emissions right now? NOTHING. So where do you want to go with the argument now?edit on 16-11-2010 by saltheart foamfollower because: (no reason given)

I do not have to listen.
I have listened to the experts and read their papers.
Because both you and I know that India and China are not going to change. Should we wipe out the Western countries? Is that what you want to do?
Is that your purpose for arguing about this?

I'm not saying you're wrong but I would like to see some science to back that statement up.

China is heavily invested in conventional energy production, but that doesn't mean it will remain this way in the future. The Chinese corner the market in rare earth elemental production. I have a feeling that in the next 10-15 years a new fuel source will come about that doesn't emit greenhouse gases. As cheap peak oil is realized, there will be push for innovation. As climate change progresses, the two needs will push together and make way for some new cheap, environmentally friendly source of energy. Basically, it either happens and civilization continues, else it doesn't and we go primal.

Still lookin but heres one article off the top of my head
www.cbsnews.com...
The amounts are small and, so far, only found in a region of the atmosphere known as the free troposphere, at an altitude of two to five miles, but the development could complicate U.S. efforts to control air pollution.
