Forums → The Tavern → What global warming has taken away from you

If we just look at a few trees, then things seem to be boarder line apocalyptic:


But when you look at the whole forest, we see that things aren't quite so bad as some people make them out. Heck, its been even warmer in the past, and we're still around:



Also, just a little tid bit I'd like to share. Theres a bunch of data floating around, spread by the Green Messiah Al Gore himself, that actually ignores the 'Little Iceage' and 'Medievel Cooling Period'. This makes it seem that the entire world has been warming consistently for the past couple thousand years.

So don't worry guys. its just a natural stage that the earth goes through. Until stuff starts to spontaneously combust, you shouldn't really worry.

Fixed the first image, and a grammatical error in the last sentence. I'll also get a mod to delete my first two post. :/

yeah unless there are tons of reports of SHC(spontanious human combustion) then i would worry about absolutely nothing about "global warming" or "climate change" or any of that garbage

It's not like many of these would actually take anything away from your life, though. This thread topic and what is being discussed are two different things. Even the OP got away from what the actual title of this thread means. Has anyone actually seen a polar bear in person, much less seen one die because of global warming? I've also mentioned this before, global warming pretty much has NOTHING to do with the (small) amount of snow many people have been complaining about. It has only raised the temperature of the earth by a little over one degree. So basically this thread's name is inaccurate to what is actually being discussed here and the consequences of global warming have somewhat been overinflated/explaining other things not having to do with it.

Y..maybe I agree that its a big deal but you know something they are so many things to worry about out there that global warming looks like a luxury to spend your time thinking ways to reduce it...

Some people's children will lose their home due to raising sea level:
Island nation Kiribati considers moving populace.

And before you go on a rant against predictions you may not agree with, please consider there are already troubles and it's not only a problem of place:
"Tong said some villages have already moved and there have been increasing instances of sea water contaminating the island's underground fresh water, which remains vital for trees and crops."

I wouldn't call that a luxury problem, not for them at least.

there are more problems worse than global warming, like the superpoulation in China and India, people complain about the starvation but they keep making more and more child, like my country northeast region (I'm brazilian), what they have in mind, don't they think that they are going to need more food to feed more mouths?

Well it has taken the life or many poor animals that live in Greenland due to ice caps falling apart every day which slowly increases the sea level.

It's taken away my dull gray British climate and replaced it with extremes, roasting hot summers and freezing cold winters.

Screw that, give me back my 12 month long 'gray' season.
