Actually, even the past 10 years should do. And what am i suppose to see? Like i said, classes i’ve had have used the same and similar graphs. If you look at the past 10 years it looks like drastic change, but as you look at the bigger picture it isnt. > [@Pass McGrass](#): > > The world started off as a fireball, then turned into a frozen desert (dessert for jeg) and now, 4 billion years later, it has settled enough that life can occur quite easily. So yeah, it has gone back and forth many times, it’s just the rate in which it is rapidly changing is what WE are causing. And tell me why exactly the rate at which it happens is the problem? ---

> [@jeeves744](#): > > And tell me why exactly the rate at which it happens is the problem? -Ice caps are melting faster than ever. -Hurricanes are becoming stronger than ever. -Ocean sea levels are rising faster than normal, causing villages around the world to abandon their land. -Species are becoming extinct because they don’t have enough time to adapt. (see polar bears) What do you think happens to the billions and billions of tons of co2 that gets pumped into the atmosphere every year? And what do you think the affect of cutting down 1000’s of acres of vegetation every year is? Trees absorb co2 and release oxygen. Yeah no shit, right? Loggers cannot replenish the rainforest as quickly as they’re destroying it. So we are burning fossil fuels and adding an unfathomable amount of co2 into the atmosphere, and then we take away the only natural way of getting rid of it. It’s a double wammy. ---

So we are burning fossil fuels and adding an unfathomable amount of co2 into the atmosphere, and then we take away the only natural way of getting rid of it. It’s a double wammy. ice melting, stronger storms, water rising, animals going extinct. Guess what, all those things are going to happen reguardless of if it takes 100years or 1,000,000years. So once again, what exactly is the speed at which the earth is warming affecting that it wouldnt be affecting if it warmed at a slower rate? ---

[http://www.john-daly.com/solar/solar.htm](http://www.john-daly.com/solar/solar.htm) It’s a good read. 🙂 I think there are many compounding factors that are creating climate change. Proving one over the other may be good for debate, but will take too long for any of us to reap any of the benefits. Furthermore, we should be watching our emissions for reasons that impact our own lives and not just our posterity. Certainly cancer and many neurobiological diseases may have been caused by our own ignorance in the past, but it appears that in the future it will be our negligence which will cost us family members. I can imagine the costs associated with treating these problems will skyrocket higher than the money we could make by having unrestricted emissions. The irony in this is that it would certainly have to be made up via healthcare costs and taxes which would impact the corporations just as much as it would affect the everyday American. We act based on “it won’t happen to my family” and not “I don’t want it happening to anybody’s family”. America has grown to become the best nation without a heart.
