| said by DarkLogix :You fail to grasp the scale of the planet (and Plants kinda need CO2 to live) You sir fail to grasp that the planet, while quite large is basically a closed system; and there are billions of us and growing all the time, and more and more of us are burning fossil fuels each year as previously "less developed" areas gain more modern technology and machines.
While the variables are indeed many, the simple fact is there is always a cause and effect. While many scoff at the idea of Man-made climate change, I have to say it makes a lot of sense to everyone but the fanatics. -- "Fascism should more properly be called corporatism because it is the merger of state and corporate power." -- Benito Mussolini

| reply to DarkLogix RLH,
A volcanic eruption can THROW OFF THE CLIMATE for months. Look at major eruptions in history. You will have SEVERE changes in weather. SO your analogy just goes to show that AN EVENT can has catastrophic consequences. Man is that event right now. Our actions are single handedly screwing up this planet. We are polluting, cutting down trees (remove carbon from the air), and causing species to go extinct in record numbers.
As for mars. Well no dude, things take time. It's like an oven, it doesn't reach full heat the second you turn it on. It takes quite a while to heat up. Mars has probably been warming nonstop for years. It just is a gradual process considering the surface area that has to get hot. No ozone layer means its not protected. It however doesn't mean that it just HAPPENS instantly. See above rationale. |
