Given the rate at which the globe is warming on it's on, we can say that it is not warming. The sun is going to burn out too. But for practical purposes, it's not burning out. There is a think called infinity. For some purposes, it's three inches. The distance required for a magnetic field to have negligible effect on something may be one foot. That is infinity, for that system.

Global warming is primarily due to population. Ten people on earth could have done absolutely anything they wanted to do. But not 7 billion.

On the other hand, now that we are living modern lifestyles, we are not going back. Not unless we are willing to stop doing the very things that we enjoy.


Today is a different morning for me. We're melting. My parent's house in Palo Alto is going to be under water soon. Tell that to a person walking down the street. Oh yeah? Right. Europe went into it's last ice age in a matter of two years, or so.

We're in much bigger trouble than people realize, unless there is some hidden mechanism that will step in and change the direction we're heading.

Damn, I can't even say thank you for your thread without going on. This subject has been the single most important thing in my life since the mid 70's.
