- taberiand 11y agoDon't worry too much - our children's children won't suffer. They'll be dead.
- guard-of-terra 11y agoI think you're overdoing it. In the history of Earth there were periods where climate were much hotter, with more greenhouse gases, yet life did not stop. Yes maybe we will suffer (maybe not so much), but don't over-dramatize the issue because drama does not last.
- andrewvijay 11y agoI think you are not realizing the scale of the impact its gonna create.
- andrewvijay 11y agoyeah its sad that not many ppl realize the effects. Even geeks seem to be arguing that there were hotter periods and blabla. This time the heat was added by humans!!
- guard-of-terra 11y ago"This time the heat was added by humans!!" So what?
- tremon 11y agoThere's two directions you can go: - the normal heating/cooling periods take place over thousands of years, which leaves ample opportunity for species to adapt to the changing climate. The human-added heat works much faster, and could trigger a massive extinction event unless the same humans work to prevent it. - irrespective of whether the heat was added by humans, the previous "hot" periods did not happen during human habitation of this planet. The change we're facing is unprecented in our history and we must work to prepare for it. Either way, action is required.
- andrewvijay 11y agoSo it should have been avoided because everyone is going to suffer now.
