Now what do you say?

Although you missed the point of my post, you concede that some planning must go into the change in the environment we are experiencing. You must not get out much or you would have seen areas still devastated by the storm(s) like I have. My point is that the effects of the changing environment is real and ongoing and a wide sampling of the population is affected on a daily basis, unlike the chickenlittle-terrorist-sky-is-falling scenerio.

While those numbers clearly indicate that other countries problems are growing much faster than the US, and point to future problems ahead, it would be good to see absolute numbers, as opposed to percent increases. I am sure the US generates more carbon emissions than anyone else.

I mean, CNN is CLEARLY not shy about the climate crisis – they did a 3 night special on it. I see it as being the case where these anchors aren’t discussing the issue because it is widely accepted to be an undisputed problem.

It should be more of an issue in debates, for sure, but other than that I consider it a victory when global warming comes up as often as support of evolution does. Both are just simply reality.

Why is ‘the sky falling’ when it comes to ambiguously percieved threats from groups incapable of following through on those threats, yet record-breaking hurricanes, floods, wind and rain, heat waves and fire have no impact on emergency preparation and response at the very least?

The Gulf Coast still looks like a storm just hit, over two years after the storm actually hit. On the other hand, impractical liquid bomb stories float around, and within days there’s a new list of things you can’t take on the plane.

Why wait for a smoking gun in the form of a Category 6 hurricane striking the east coast? The cost of doing nothing could be your life.

give us a minute, guys, so we can place some bets as to which righty can throw the hot potato the furthest.

Boldly played, Captain.

I wish that the Democrats would talk about this issue 24/7.”

y’know what?, HfDC? – If GW “Capt. Hazelwood” Bush hadn’t run the ship of state onto the rocks for the sake of his Napoleonic ego, the D’s probably would be talking about global warming 24/7, and it probably would hinder their campaigns, but he did, so they can’t, and the result will be something that will have you rending your garments and gnashing your teeth for the next 20 years.

Congratulations.

One would think that countries that committed to the Kyoto treaty are doing a better job of curtailing carbon emissions. One would also think that the United States, the only country that does not even intend to ratify, keeps on emitting carbon dioxide at growth levels much higher than those who signed.

And one would be wrong….

Boycott the MSM today.

You’ll really enjoy this piece where Norman Solomon takes Glenn Beck to the woodshed and reveals all the corporate whoring (and conflicts of interest) going on at all the major networks.

Because of rising demand for ethanol, American farmers are growing more corn than at any time since the Depression. And sea life in the Gulf of Mexico is paying the price.

The nation’s corn crop is fertilized with millions of pounds of nitrogen-based fertilizer. And when that nitrogen runs off fields in Corn Belt states, it makes its way to the Mississippi River and eventually pours into the Gulf, where it contributes to a growing “dead zone” – a 7,900-square-mile patch so depleted of oxygen that fish, crabs, and shrimp suffocate.
the lifeless spot.

…With demand for corn booming, some researchers fear the dead zone will expand rapidly, with devastating consequences.

“We might be coming close to a tipping point,” said Matt Rota, director of the water resources program for the New Orleans-based Gulf Restoration Network, an environmental group. “The ecosystem might change or collapse as opposed to being just impacted.”

They’re reporting no signs of foul play. I’ll reserve my comments.
