You can refuse to believe it all you want, it don't make it go away. People didn't believe Galilao when he said the Earth revolved around the Sun. People laughted at Columbus for his idea. The point is, I'd rather live my live preparing for worst, but hoping for the best. You can still believe nothing is going to happen, but cut back on the CO2 production! It won't hurt anyone if you do! And I didn't say that CO2 is unnatural, just that it is at an unnatural LEVEL. Personaly, I don't like the idea of politicians and other people saying that they know more or have a better intuition about this than the scientists. Scientists have proof stuff is happening. Were is yours? Oh, that's right, you don't have any. I guess that means we win.

Your right about there being natural fluctuations of CO2 and other greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. But you forget that the level we are pumping into the atomosphere is not natural. Even the scientists who have been studying this for decades concede that they don't really know what will happen, just that something will happen. One way is that the excess CO2, which is unnatural remember, will trap more heat, and more heat, and more heat until the polar ice caps melt, etc, etc. Another way it could go is that the excess heat caught by the CO2, which again is at an unnatural level, will cause more of the oceans to evaporate forming more clouds. These clouds could acutually chill the planet and send us into another ice age. If we plan for there to be a change, and there isn't one, oh well. We live on. But if we don't prepare for a change, and there is one, that's it, we're dead, end game. Remember that when you talk about there being nothing to worry about.

See, the thing is, over here in the States, we have what we call "dumbasses". They don't have any common sense or useful skills. They are not forward-thinking, and the only thing they're concerned about is the persent, here and now. Unfortunately, they outnumber the logically-thinking population.

thats what i saw, when i reread it, i saw what you said, sorry i accused you of being an idiot and kolben, the fact remains that where theres a will theres a way. your people pussied out, because i (doubt im the only one) refuse to believe that there was no way for them to help. and it doesnt mater if youre country was surrounded by water, dont you have boats? planes? and about me pussying out in the same situation, your dead wrong. i dont take shit from people, if someone steals something from me, i get it back, if someone does something to me, i get them back. if someone invaded my house, i wouldnt go down without a fight. im sorry if you dont have enough self respect to stand up for yourself, but thats why youre a pussy. DEAL WITH IT.

You're a fucking idiot you know that Sithiee. No, we had no means of getting our army out of the country. Read impossible. Well maybe a few soldiers could go on our fishing boats to Sweden (the only place to go) and do what the sedish army did. Nothing. Planes HAHA!!! Yeah right. Understand this. The danish army was set decades back in WW1 (didn't you know that? But you are so smart, and you know everything). We had nothing. And we didn't have any eiger to build it up again. We do not like war. Everybodys not war sick like you. We HATE war. We do anything to avoid it. And before you even learn ANYTHING about Denmark, and our history, and our way of living you should stfu. You don't know the geography. You don't know the purposes we had, and you don't know the situation we were in. In fact...you don't know shit, and you weren't even there. OMG! I think you are the stupidest person I've ever had a discussion with. To fight a hopeless battle that would get you killed for sure, is rediculous. I'd rather live in good and bad and have a life, than being dead and have nothing. And I have ALL the self respect a person could ever get. My conscience is crystal clear. If someone comes to me asking for help, I'll help them. But if they ask me to kill a man, I'll tell them to do it themselves. And Sithiee. The ones in Denmark not surrendering to the Germans ended up dead. So you'd be dead if you were here and you wouldn't even have won the country back. Nice move there. Cool to have self respect when you are dead. And don't even try to make me feel guilty. I wasn't there either. Fuckhead! Another thing is purely strategy analysis. If Denmark had put up a bigger fight the Germans would have been slowed down. Then they would reach Soviet by summertime, and then they'd have kicked Soviet asses. Uh oh. Then they would have gotten the oil they needed, and then they'd go kick US asses. /me is tired of Sithiee /me tells Sithiee to go masturbate to a war movie instead of making himself look bad /ignore Sithiee Stop talking to me about that fucking war. Please get it this time!! My English is not THAT bad.

I love kolben. (You perv's out there shut up) Not for hating sith, but for being able to withstand through this and provide reasonable arguement. Usually when I try to make points like these I trail off.

ugh you people are all full of shit. you are all spewing BS more then bush at a japanese banquet. here we go: quote: And as the only nation in the world you refuse to sign the treaty that might save us.
wrong. there are only a handful of countries that have agreed to the kyoto protocals, which only plan to decrease CO2 by 5-10\% in 20 years. not only that, but countries can trade pollution points, effectively nullifying the benefits. quote: WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU THINK WE BREATHE OUT???? thats right, CO2.
the normal amount of CO2 in the atmosphere is about 1\%. the amount we (as in ALL LIVING THINGS) metabolise is didleyshit compared to what industry has pumped out in the last 100 years. quote: so if youre really paranoid about the CO2 situation, start planting trees and bushes. dont bitch about how we use energy, thats our business, not yours.
there are already a ton of trees and such. that is hardly a solution. quote: as the poles melt, resulting in a larger exchange of water from the seas to the air, creating more wind, creating more storms making more funny blackouts in the US,
someone has been taking waterworld too seriously. besides what does that have to do with blackouts (which we have not been experiencing anywhere in the US) quote: The weather people are actually talking about the fact that we might have an iceage just now
riiight....the weather people! lets all trust the weather people for now on! quote: People didn't believe Galilao when he said the Earth revolved around the Sun.
thats copernicus not (sic) Galilao quote: People laughted at Columbus for his idea.
that the earth was round? that's just an urban myth told to elementary schoolers. even the greeks knew the earth was round. and personguy - it is commonly accepted that global warming is occuring, although the degree to which and the effects of which are still being studied.
