    these scenarios are far more important to us than CO2. i'd also add epidemics and space borne dangers like meteorites. i'm actually very scared on chinas part for their upcoming battle with the desert. what other natural disaster has been so overwhleming that china is seriously considering...

    "for our purposes ice age would refer to the last glacial maximum" boagsy (sorry my browser is giving me all sorts of grief with posting in this forum. you'll have to live with a little paraphrasing) no. ice age would be what the experts refer to, and that's what we are in right now. why you...

    that link i showed you was put together by scientists. they are more educated than us both yet you dismiss them? they are not my personal theories. my personal theory is that climate change happens all the time. even if i think carbon emissions are the cause, the actual threat is mostly hype...

    my objection is you calling it "vulnerable to climate change" yet there is no real danger to us that has not been faced by humans for thousands of years. 3 degrees warmer and the earth thrives. colder and people die. if there is a side to be cautious on it's the warmer one. i believe the video...

    my counter. at layman level. ;) these are Viking age houses i refer to. i assume they migrated there during the warm medieval period and left when the ice closed in on them during the mini ice age. there is a lot of info here on vikings in greenland

    yeah thats what i said. fossil fuel is chaep. renewable isn't cheap. fossil fuel is reliable, renewable isn't. fossil fuel pollutes, so does renewable. assuming you want to make 10 terawatts of solar energy how much land do you need to cover in mirrors? half the worlds current power? thats over...

    if there was a coal power station next to me i'd be all for it. but being an ass you forget that they don't generally put power stations of any sort right next to people. all i get from your posts is that you know nothing about nuclear power and less about solar. i guess you can do without...

    well bumhole. that radioactive material is thown into the atmosphere every time someone digs a hole. it's no sealed anywhere it's IN YOUR BED. coal power produces more radiation in our atmoshpere than nuclear ever will. but it's good that at least your not arguing i should pay taxes on anything...

    i bring up dinosaurs only because they are the fuel we are using. we need that fuel. we will need it until we have viable RELIABLE alternatives in place. come up with a better solution. i suggest we get the **** off this planet before a meteorite wipes us out of the equation. there a frikken...
