We don't need to keep spewing carbon emissions into the atmosphere.
Speaking of which, what happened to the whole 'ozone hole' thing?
We also shouldn't need to farm so much meat that the cattle damage the atmosphere.
We have renewable, clean ways to live. Why persist in tempting fate?

Which is probably why you'll ever be a dupe chasing after the latest fad.

Hmmm.
I'm a Hindu. I take my own senses as a primary source of information, and books and other people's testimony (and such) as a secondary source.

No. No I don't.
I genuinely think that cleaning up our businesses - effectively and rigorously - will preserve our planet enough for future generations (and future technologies) , to stabilize the atmosphere.
However if we let the political pressure slip, and put this on the backburner then all sorts of other negative influences can disrupt this process ( 'clean' coal comes to mind )
I am also a proponent of nuclear in the short-mid term. A form of energy or government don't want to use for some reason.

Don't think its ok to support a society which insists on polluting our environment.
Don't wait for some outside help to come fix things.

Try it on the Science Forum.
These threads gravitate to matters touching Spirituality.

Well if your body can change for the better then that would be ok.
