head of the United Nations is urging everyone to come to

Of course it will take longer, especially if we continue to listen to windbag Gore and his swiss cheese theory.

I'm sorry I'm not one to completely buy the global warming theory and anything Al Gore says I take with a grain of salt on a beach washed up by the ocean.

Mooch

Well, let's see .. first we need to get people elected who look at evidence before making up their minds.:)

To start with... it would be nice to stop talking about it... and actually do something about it.

I did watch the movie "An inconvenient truth"...
And I believe it.

The only ones who don't want to believe it are the greedy little capitalists who are more concerne about money than humanity.

The greedy little capitalists don't think it will happen in their lifetime.
"I'll be dead... so I don't care".

All those people who died in world war 1 and world war 2... fighting for our freedom... must be turning in their grave and wonder why they did bother.

And to answer your question...
No it will not work because it is taking too long. It has to be stopped today if we want any chance of fixing it. The pollution is growing at a faster rate that anything we do to try to reduce it. It is a lost cause. Which is why nobody wants to do anything about it. Governments know... just like I do... that it is too late.

I agree with everything Al Gore says in the movie... minus the ending. I don't agree that it can be reverted. We would be doing extremely well to stabilise it at the level it is today. But we are not going to revert it... not while our population keeps growing.

If the UN was serious about the Global Warming it would have held the confrensce via the internet and not spending weeks in Bali. One report I read estimated that the carbon foot print of the confrence was over 100,000 tons of carbon. nature put in more carbon each year than we put in in a decade. When Al Gore and John Edwards start to live 'green' then maybe I will think about it. He uses more energy, for he and his wife, in a month than I use in a year .

Hopefully, it will never happen! We cannot control the climate. The solar system is in charge of that, primarily the sun. If it were about controlling pollution or utilizing our waste product as a renewable fuel source, I'd go for it. But the GW is entirely BS (yeah, that's right - Bad Science). I think it would be worth your while to look at the following...

Once you've read the truth I think you'll see why I feel the way I do. Thanks for the post!

I think it will take longer, which is tragic. Making sure the environment is sound is like saving for retirement. You have to start now or it may be too late.
