    If history is any guide, probably not.

      Nope, we´re all going straight to hell. The earth will purge itself of this cancer called humanity and the monkeys will eventually take over.

            Uh huh.

            Notice how forest has increased in North America. It's because people need houses.

            I watch Penn and Teller:Bull**** on this subject the other day.

            They sent a lady out to get environmental protesters to sign a petition to get Dihydrogen monoxide banned. They told the absolute truth about it.

            100's of people signed this petition.



            If you are going to protest something at least know something about what you are protesting.

            ACK!
            Don't try to confuse the issue with half-truths and gorilla dust!

              Forest has not increased. Acrage of trees has increased, but that's not the same thing. A farm is not a prairie, a tree farm is not a foreset anymore than an orange grove is. A forest is a type of ecosystem, and most of those have been pretty well destroyed. These so-called forests are nothing more than neatly arranged rows of lodgepole pine, sprayed, weeded, etc.

                  So you were totally wrong. You were just as taken in as those people signing the H2O petition.

                    There are more trees in North America then a century ago but many (most?) of those trees aren't a natural forest. Forests are cut down then tree farms are replanted with one or two types of fast growing and economically useful types of trees. The biodiversity is gone and animals which relied upon old growth trees or trees other then those one or two types are screwed.

                        No I wasn't, my point is why should I care?


                        you did teach me something though, I now know how to do the sub thing.

                          Tubes, a better tack would have been to try and go after whomever these Millenium Environment Assessment people are.

                          It was funded by the Global Environment Facility, the United Nations Foundation, the David and Lucile Packard Foundation, the World Bank and others.


                          I would say that at least partially, some of those involved might be predisposed to find the answers they found. On the other hand, anyone older than their mid-twenties, only has to drive around and see how much has changed since the '70s, even in the U.S., which has pretty strict regulations.

                            It doesn"t conserve humodity like forests do. Thus the making of clouds and regular rain fall.

                              No, your point was:

                              And yet, that's what you just did, as evidenced by both Oerdin and I pointing out your factual error.
