The weather has been seriously changing, no doubt about that.

I'm dying from an irreversible terminal illness called 'old-age' anyway so it's not going to have much affect on me personally. Unless I came back as a porpoise on purpose in my next life. Then I'll have lots of water to swim in. grin

How serious do you want to get?

Don't worry about the future. Just enjoy the moment. That's really all you can do.

I mean, sure you can partake in political activities etc. and do what you can toward supporting enviromental-friendly things. But the bottom line is that life will bring whatever it will bring.

All humans will die. That's a given fact no matter what else is true. It's the nature of living creatures to die. All you can really do is just live the best possible life you can.

If you suspect that sea levels are going to rise and weather is going to become unpredicable then I suggest you help your family move to a high location in a nice secluded nested valley in the mountains with souther exposure and build a green house. wink

First of all this quote "life will bring whatever it will bring", we aint talking about life, were talking about NATURE..
What our world is going to look like in 20 years if we don't do nothing to prevent it..

There are many places that are going to pass away, in the next 20-50 years, Because of the SEA LEVELS.
Enjoy the moment, and thats all i can do, if we can do something about it, why dont everybody TRY. We are in YOUR FUTURE WHY DONT you think about all the young people, children and babies and what our Future Is Going To Bring US....

It's not a matter of caring about it. It's a matter of not being smart enough to deal with it.

Look at the violence between human beings in the middle east. Solving that problem is an absolute piece of cake. Yet they can't even begin to deal with it.

And you expect them to be able deal with controlling the weather of an entire planet?

You've been watching too many sci-fi programs.

Human beings can't even control themselves, they sure as hell aren't in any position to be controlling the weather of an entire celestial body.

Do I care?

Sure I do.

Is there anything I can do about it? Let me tell you this much, I've lived a back-to-basics simple environmentally-friendly lifestyle most of my life. I used to ride a bicycle back and forth 20 miles each way to work over very hilly terrain. I did that for 3 years of my life, before I finally got tired of disrespectful assholes in 2-ton automobiles blowing their horns at me as they whizzed by going well over the speed limit.

I also raised horses, grew all my own food, built all my own furniture by hand. I'm an avid believer in living off the land in a back-to-basics lifestyle. I denounce large cities, and large commercial farms that use chemical fertilizer. I grew everything organically using manure from my horses. I even kept bees for honey so I wouldn't need to buy sugar. I grew my own wheat and made my own flour, noodles and bread. I raised chickens for eggs and they ranged off the land.

If everyone lived like me there would be no global warming. I did my part.

The white man came and ran the indians off their land and then raped the land and conquered it and spit into its face the pollution of his deeds. And now he's reaping his just reward.

Pardon me whilst I have myself a belly roll. rolling on the floor laughing

And no, it's not funny at all.

But what good will crying do? crying

Humans don't deserve to be saved from the fate of their very own selfishness.

There are some folks who care.

And quietly try to do the best they can to help the environment...

Recycle, use green products, use less gas. There are lots of ways to act to help the earth.

Act to save the earth wave

I know the thing behind the film is real, I mean the deestruction of the planet....but it has been used by Gore (with not so much success) to have an alternative message to the war-freak US people who want to fight alongside with Bush for freedom and democracy..
As for the rest Gore is just another plain bullshitting politician. A plain ignorant and arrogant arsehole..(just like the others)
Read this:

From: http://www.nopunditintended.com/2006/09/unpimp_al_gores_ride.php#more

here the article:

Unpimp Al Gore's Ride

Al Gore has gone green - there is no doubt. Everyone knows he is hot on the trail of global warming, only recently unveiling his global warming plan.

Gore proposed a Carbon Neutral Mortgage Association ("Connie Mae," to echo the familiar Fannie Mae) devoted to helping homeowners retrofit and build energy-efficient homes. He urged creation of an "electranet," which would let homeowners and business owners buy and sell surplus electricity.
"This is not a political issue. This is a moral issue -- it affects the survival of human civilization," Gore said in an hour-long speech at the New York University School of Law. "Put simply, it is wrong to destroy the habitability of our planet and ruin the prospects of every generation that follows ours."

Al Gore has liberals around the country in a state of revolutionary ecstasy with his Inconvenient Truth. Indeed it is inconvenient - for Al Gore.
There is only one thing wrong with Al Gore's plan and Al Gore's morality. He doesn't live them.
Take Al's modes of transportation. He claims to live a carbon-neutral lifestyle, but I don't think that includes the private jet he uses to get around the country. Then there are his houses:
Public records reveal that as Gore lectures Americans on excessive consumption, he and his wife Tipper live in two properties: a 10,000-square-foot, 20-room, eight-bathroom home in Nashville, and a 4,000-square-foot home in Arlington, Va. (He also has a third home in Carthage, Tenn.) For someone rallying the planet to pursue a path of extreme personal sacrifice, Gore requires little from himself.
Then there is the troubling matter of his energy use. In the Washington, D.C., area, utility companies offer wind energy as an alternative to traditional energy. In Nashville, similar programs exist. Utility customers must simply pay a few extra pennies per kilowatt hour, and they can continue living their carbon-neutral lifestyles knowing that they are supporting wind energy. Plenty of businesses and institutions have signed up. Even the Bush administration is using green energy for some federal office buildings, as are thousands of area residents.
But according to public records, there is no evidence that Gore has signed up to use green energy in either of his large residences. When contacted Wednesday, Gore's office confirmed as much but said the Gores were looking into making the switch at both homes. Talk about inconvenient truths.
This is not all that surprising really. The liberal elite mentality is based upon a belief that their ideals and policy are for the masses - not for smart people who make sure the masses are cared for. Al Gore presses upon us the framework in which we should live. Those things don't apply to those who reside on Mt. Olympus. The gods live by other rules.
