I was going to make a thread on the self centred, smug, attitude of environmentalists today but I will just tack it on here...
I am sick and tired of environmentalists whimpering and protesting when in reality they know SQUAT about saving the environment! They all have some sort of defect in their minds that forbids them from making a rational connection whenever it comes to the environment. They will willingly spew forth any BullShit they hear, without thinking or researching it through, cause not to do so will some how 'destroy the world ecosystems.' In reality the only 'solutions' they are able to put forth is rolling back the industrial clock to pre-industrial means, which would involve a genocide of at least 3/4 of the worlds population to archive! Say, for example, green farming.... Without factory farming we couldn't feed more then a tiny slither of the worlds population but that is the 'only solution' they put forth when it comes to farming.
I am sick and tired of this mentality, this protest and it will all be better mindset. Surely if the hundreds of thousands of greenies sat down and planned some real solutions we could have change that pushes us towards a cleaner environment in a way that may actually be possible, that we may very well bring around. It might not be 100% cleaning up human impact but at least it will be a great chunk reduced and at the same time be achievable.
Yet all we get is the brain dead slogans, protests and 'two minutes of hate' that will do nothing to fix the environmental issue!

Global warming:
It exists, it is a natural cycle that normally happens and has been documented for millions of years in polar ice. The question that has to be raised is simple: what is our impact on global warming, how are we affecting this cycle and what damage can it cause.
I personally believe we do have an impact but not enough to be hysterical about. What changes we do have are going to be minimal, nothing more then a few degrees at most, and the world systems will negate and balance this change as it always has.
Who knows, warming the world a few degrees might very well be a GOOD thing. We don't know, in reality we do NOT know what the changes will bring. Hence assuming the worse extremes though, we are not going to see a sudden warming to Venus type degree, is just down right folly! The reality is, more then likely, the change will not even be noticed by the majority of the ecological systems and the few that do get effected will evolve and adapt to the change without the system collapsing.
Now we need to clean up the air, the sea and the land for more important reasons then 'global warming.' Selfish reasons, yes, but more important reasons: That pollution is not good for us, period! If the means exist to reduce it then it becomes in our own self interest to reduce it. It is in our own self interest to research and implement systems that do not kill us as a by product.
For that reason alone we need environmental change, led by scientific fact and not hysteria and fear!
"By the mid-1980s, the environmental movement had abandoned science and logic in favor of emotion and sensationalism."
