		<description>Another thought for my liberal minded friends.

You could have an ally in &quot;America First&quot; minded conservatives. The problem is you phrase the issue incorrectly. You want people to pollute less and RetroCons want to stop using foreign (Mideast) oil. I see a commonality there. If you phrase alternative energy (solar, wind and dare I say nuclear) as energy independence then you will see allies that you thought were enemies.

Food for Thought...</description>

		<description>Simple Math Question

Global temperatures have gone 1-2 degrees in the past 100 years and we have used 50% of the fossil fuels (oil, natural gas and coal) 

How much will the temperature rise in the next 100 years as we burn the remaining 50% of the fossil fuel?

The point of the question is eventually we wil run out of the &quot;trouble making&quot; fuels and that I think that fact should be a bigger concern than a couple degrees on the old thermometer.</description>

		<description>What on earth has this guy been popping, snorting, and/or smoking lately? It&#039;s certainly done one heck of a job on his intellectual capacity. If &quot;vast regions&quot; of Canada become &quot;comfortably habitable&quot;, this will almost inevitably mean that at least some regions further south become too hot for human habitation -- has he forgotten that the earth is curved and that regions near the equator always have a hotter climate than those closer to the poles?  That would most likely displace a large number of people. His comments show an utter lack of understanding about how climate works. If you watch television shows like &quot;The Future Is Wild&quot;, you begin to understand that one of the reasons why it&#039;s harder to grow crops in some of the Western states than it is in the Eastern region -- it&#039;s because there are more and larger bodies of water in the Eastern part from which moisture can evaporate and fall as precipitation, and wind can only carry it so far. Global warming will not do much if anything to correct this, because it has to do with the land mass of the continent as much as anything. Rising sea levels will likely wash away or flood at least some of the useful farmland and housing land that currently exists, which will drive populations inland and create housing problems. The change in the shoreline will probably help create some farmland which wasn&#039;t there before -- but probably nowhere near as much as he thinks, 

The Newfies -- who he describes as &quot;enjoying the surfing&quot; in the future -- have a word for people like this.  That word is CHUCKLEHEAD.</description>

		<description>To Honey dipper:  The IPCC is an organization run by the administration, which only tells lie after lie after lie (just like the administration!).  If you believe them, you&#039;re a bigger dope than your post represents.  The IPCC site has been criticized by numerous scientists for its lack of facts.</description>

		<description>For those wing-nut tools that see global warming as a real estate opportunity, let them start by buying up the 9th Ward of New Orleans from the current deed holders at pre-Katrina rates.</description>
