There is a definite need to preserve our world. Not because of "global warming" but because it is the right thing to do. I love to hunt and I want my son to have the ability and the land to do the same if he so chooses to. I want my son to see nature in real life, not just the zoo. BUT, I do not want him to be influenced or scared by junk science. There is ZERO proof that man has had one thing to do with the so called warming trends that you hear so much about today. In fact, the majority of claims made by warming scientist have been shown to be false. Many leading scientist have stepped away from the warming theory. Here is a link that will show everyone the hypocrisy and BS that is and has been made by the alarmist. Read them before you simply state more rhetoric. Cause quite frankly, I and many others have grown so tired of the BS and do not want to hear it anymore.

NO MORE LIES PLEASE

rocky5544, you're obviously an educated man, so I won't bore you with websites--just look them up for yourself: look up evidence of increased CO2 levels in the earths thermosphere, about 100 km above the surface, depending on where you live. Increased CO2 in the thermosphere can ONLY be there from one source--the burning of fossil fuels. So, take the time to google 'increased CO2 in thermosphere' and then tell the world your thoughts on global warming again. There is NO other vehicle for CO2 levels to rise in the thermosphere other than anthropogenically (burning of fossil fuels). If you started chainsmoking in your house, how long before the walls are greasy from tar? How long before the ceiling turns yellow? How long before you and everybody else in the house start to get sick from the 4000 cigarette chemicals merged into the walls of the house?
I ask you that because your house is like the atmosphere, that's the last stop. Sure, trees replenish our atmosphere, but not at the rate we are dumping pollutants into it. Sure, you can open the windows in your house, but the smoke quickly fills up again. Our earths atmosphere has a very delicate balance, so what did you think was going to happen when we started polluting it? The air has nowhere to go, it too is trapped on earth, so the pollutants start from the ground and work their way up, and now the thermosphere is cooling (much faster than the surface is warming I might add), and there's not a darn thing we can do about it. Even if we stopped burning fossil fuels worldwide tonight, the damage is done, and will take a hundred years or more to repair itself.
I envy you your unlearned opinion about the atmosphere. Myself, I know too much, and I worry for my children, and my children's children. And I worry about mankind. Will we survive the next 1000 years on earth? We can't move to another planet. It would take at least 1000 light years space travel to explore planets that we haven't already plausibly ruled out as habitable just to start searching for a likely candidate to host humans. I would love it if you could prove me wrong, factually. I invite you to do so. Tell me what you find. JMW
