Czuch: BTW, last i heard, the ice glaciers were growing again? could you send me a link on THAT one,I would be interested in reading it. And yes,I AM suggesting that we are changing nature. Agreed that the earth goes through her own heating/cooling cycles,but humans and all of our greenhouse gasses and polution and waiste,and definatly adding to the warming effect and essetially throwing off the earths cycle of balance.Put 100 people in a small room,think will eventually start to get warmer?? now have some of them smoke,now have a few cans of hairspray spraying,now have put some animlas in there with ya,maybe a running car or 2...after,oh lets say...not even a day,ya THINK it will start to get a bit nasty in that room?? Even IF you had a good ventalation system installed,one that would have worked perfectly fine for say,you and your family....start throwing other stuff into that mix and you ventilation system doesn't do such a good job anymore does it?? Humans are a parasite...a cancer on this earth,and one day she will have enough of us abusing and taking her for granted and find her own way to get rid of us...I just hope when that day comes,the earth isn't so far beyond it own repair that it becomes a waisteland
anastasia: Nahhh the earth won't dump us.... but we might do so much damage through not understanding our impact properly that the earth might become a hostile enviroment causing the deaths of millions upon millions.
..... people will be fighting over good living places and it won't be pretty.
anastasia: I think because it implies we ain't supposed to here. While I agree we have mucked things up and not really thought about our impact on this world and how our use of resources and chemicals has been reckless and in some cases very dangerous....
.... We live here, we may only be borrowing it (as the saying goes) from our children, but we live here.
We are not parasites, just foolish and often those in power or in industry just don't think things through.. or the tech is just not there to understand the impact.
Eg these new anti ageing agents with nano-tech.... No-one really knows the long term impact of using such agents on the skin, or so certain scientists are saying.
(V): I'm not implying we are not suppose to be here,I am implying that we take and take and take...we need to stop and look around at what we are doing to this planet.
