Man made global warming is real.

I'm not increasing the birthrate of our species. So... uh. Yeah.

Ok, so just because people overreacted in the 80's to HIV/AIDS, doesn't mean that HIV/AIDS weren't real and didn't need to be addressed. Same thing here. Obviously there are a lot of idiots out there who take global warming to the extreme.  But that doesn't make it any less real.

I agree with Yeti. Restricting the amount of punks the breeders are allowed to birth would significantly help.

High five?

AIDS...no biggie.

even if global warming were literally a hoax....wouldnt it still be smart to limit how much we pollute the air...just in general

Yes, it's a great idea and everyone should be good custodians of the planet.

We could always breathe toxic fumes. Then you could drive that hummer and use 25 plastic bags when you go food shopping.

and use 25 plastic bags when you go food shopping.

Now that I've got 2 dogs, I stopped using the re-usable grocery bags and now I have everything double bagged in plastic.

You would make a fantastic lawyer.

The power outage in India has a lot to do with policy that has allowed growth of demand to outstrip supply, but it also has been exacerbated by climate change:  the rains which have always been relied upon to quench the fields have not come, and as a result, the farmers have resorted to irrigation powered by electric pumps.  Had the rains come, the pumps would not have placed such a strain on the already over-taxed system. 

These are not surprising phenomena.  This is the new reality.  Deny we caused it all you like, it's happening.

Glad you are doing so much about it from your computer screen in your middle class home, hipster douche

I'll bet you ten pesos he's not using any of India's electricity.

[MDS]

I'll bet you 50 Aussie dollars he moves on tomorrow to whatever problem the village voice tells him to care about

[General_Failure]

I'd be in real trouble if that problem is a lack of ditches.
