Like actually cutting emissions quantitavely, not relatively?


Actually I don't think mankind can do much against global warming. We might contribute a bit, but it's proposterous to think we have the ability to have a lasting impact on the climate on this third rock from the sun.
Nothing extraordinary is happenening at the moment. Sure, humans might die, possibly get extinct. We won't be the first, and we certainly won't be the last. Sealevels have risen far beyond their current level, in ancient times. Sealevels have fallen way beyond present levels in the past as well.
They will do so again and again.

If anything, we should worry about the pollution we cause with pesticides, fertilizer, toxic fumes, heavy metals, nuclear waste etc., because they will affect our present day life.
Global warming may or may not happen, with or without
us.

Uh.
I'm just getting static on this thing.

If it's satire it's good, but alas, some people seriously believe such things.

*Taps sarcasm detector again*
Nope, still can't get a reading.
