I say this only because the policys/policies that took SO long and much marketing and advertisement has long since been included in almost ALL levels and all aspects of government !!! So even as global warming, climate change or whatever one wishes to call it, has been part of the policy landscape for easily 40 years: it will take ANOTHER 40 years MINIUM to expunge.

Replying to: alltorque (Jan 07, 2009 9:10 am) I think you may be correct in that I have seen some ever so slight back-pedaling by the media on the whole GW thing. This morning as I was off work (schools closed again by snow & ice) I was watching a History channel show on "The Little Ice Age". As part of the discussion they had a climatologist talking about what caused a 4-7 degree drop in global temperatures long before the industrial revolution. He stated "It just shows how we have NO CONTROL over the climate". This is a small admission from a station which has run shows centering on how we will all be drowning in a few years when the ice caps melt. |

If you still are dreaming that the sun is and will only be a minor player in our climate, then you definitely need to read the following. http://www.universetoday.com/2008/01/31/will-earth-survive-when-the-sun-becomes-- a-red-giant/ It sure looks like nature trumps anything man is going to do. And I thought if I was just gentler on the Earf, it would be a paradise and nourish us.

Replying to: steve_ (Jan 07, 2009 8:00 pm) It amazes me that you do not see the connection and the results of what you said AND the connections. |

Replying to: ruking1 (Jan 07, 2009 8:42 pm) You came back with a link about Chavez and his social oil program. I'm not connecting the dots, but I'd love to hear what I'm missing.
