Eco-quiz (and Breathing Earth)

[Kweepa]

Steve... "someone is presenting fake ones?"

To summarise... Yes. Hockey stick is a fake.

Oh, sorry - I thought you meant here. Hockey Stick isn't a "fake", it just has some questionable methodology, which according to independent analysis, probably doesn't affect the results significantly.

Discrediting one piece of research doesn't make the whole field of climatology suddenly wrong. In fact it strengthens the rest, as it doesn't have the flaws found in the "discredited" research. No doubt McIntyre is looking for problems, which is good for the science.

I think that my opinion is clear...  So, to summarise again...

Good clima charts are chaotic enough to automatically assuming that the activity after the industrial revolution had something to see, specially considering that nowadays human emissions are still insignificant (search for natural C02 and petrol emissions, for example).

So... Would I sign for a neverending garden of Eden in Earth in spite the shitty enviroment we see in the city skirts? Yes.
Will I do something to help? Yes.
Do I think that the use of fossil fuels should be redouced? Yes (and not just for enviroment... I would like to see some Wahabbist arabian and some KKKlanish texans families die by famine...)

Do I think we are hurting the Earth? Yes.

But for me, the people is aiming to a false enemy. C02 emissions and tanker accidents are really annoying... but as I said before, and, under my opinion, a simply scratch in the surface of the earth. for me the main problem is the deforestation of Amazones, mainly by Brasil and Bolivia.

Of course... Lula and Evo are revolutionary cammarades, and it' s not so fashioned to blame them... Also, this deforestation is baing made basically for creating cheap grasslands for producing cheap beef meat... Meat, which is destined to feed the pets in houses of the Western countries.

So... excuse me. I have been called "anti-enviromentalist" by people who owns a dog and has deforested a place where 30 families could live in a building for constructing a lonely cotagge. Allow me to be sceptical against every cataclismic premonition they make... Specially if it aims "the evil USA", and not theirselves. People must do what its in their hands to help nature, and not just chit chat. I see alot of hipocrisy here*, so I instintivelly turn into "deffensive" mode.

(*) Here means my country, and some friends I have, not AGS forums or any agser.

This quizz really asks you to spy/observe your neighbours trashcan... as far as I know, if everyone would go about checking what their neighbours threw away world would be a better place.

"Let's see what he's thrown away"
"Oh my God, Frank, we can't trhow this away, the neighbours will see!"

Nah, people would just dump their dodgy waste in other people's bins.

Nah, people would just dump their dodgy waste in other people's bins.

I can see the headlines now, "Man gets 10 years for shitting in resident's trash can."

[Tuomas]

But would that still not make the world a better place? I mean, come on, dumping in other peoples bins... that's good, right?

I usually dispose of dog poo by lighting it on fire and placing it on the neighbor's doorstep.   How would putting it in his garbage be any more fun?
