If We Do Not Have A Technology...

If we do not have a technology this day, what do you think will happen to us? Imagine that we do not evolve from the past up to the present without any technology, do you think "global warning" will exists? For me, the reason why we have this "global warning" is because of the technology we have, that effect its atmosphere.

I live in New York City and with this weather we've been getting, about 35 million people will argue that no such thing exists. Its been so cold and we've gotten 5 winter snowstorms one after the other. If there's global warming, its not affecting us here. All that aside, scientist say that global warming is indeed occuring and that the average temperature on this planet has risen 2% in the last 100 years. They attribute this to carbon emissions from fossil fuels. I just wish some of that warming would reach New York City since we just woke up today with a foot of snow on the ground.

we wont miss what we dont know.. so i guess if we never had technology.life still goes on.. of course its harder to imagining world today if u suddenly take all the technology away.. it will be catastrophic And if we have never had technology..then no one human will actually discovered there such a thing as "Global Warming" - (even if its around-there no technology to measure it)..but honestly ..Technology is hard to avoid..the human mind will always evolve .one way or another.

I think if the modern technology we have right now does not exist... We would not even have so much problem as we have right now in terms of the polution... And all other things related.

Technology has it's plusses as well as it's minuses. I believe, however, that the plusses outweigh the minuses. As far as global warming goes I believe it is blown way out of proportion. Contrary to what some scientists and opinions would have us believe, the fact is, there is no absolute concrete proof that global warming is a threat to us or the environment nor is there such proof that it is caused by man. It is the opinion of some scientists and environmentalists that "manmade" greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide are the main if not only cause of global warming. It is a fact, however, that solar flares from the sun are a primary factor in global warming. Volcanic activity has also been discovered to have an impact. It is also known that carbon dioxide occurs naturally in far greater amounts than it does in the manmade form....approximately 97% occurs naturally. That leaves only about 3% that is alleged by some scientists to be the primary culprit of global warming. Common sense tells me that's highly unlikely. These same scientists tell us that the melting glaciers are proof of global warming. That might be the case if the melting of glaciers had never happened before. But, glacial melting is hardly unprecedented. Not to mention the fact that while there are certainly some glaciers that are receding(melting) there are others that are advancing(growing). But those scientists conveniently fail to mention those truths. There are far too many factors that affect the climate for us to simply cut back on our carbon dioxide emissions and hope to have an affect. And many of those factors are beyond our control.

It is difficult to be sure of the reasons of global warming. Actually we live between two glaciations. It is sure that fossil fuels used today have an impact... It is known that Earth had a weather more hot than today at the end of the Roman Empire or in the middle age : do you know that vineyards were growing in the North of England in the XIIth century ? No technology was involved at these times. So, is global warming a threat for Earth or a scarecrow created by our politicians to create a new world tax ??? Personally I can't respond.
