I also do not drive a car. It's public transportation everywhere. And despite living in an apartment where the heat is included in the rent, I rarely turn it on and prefer to bundle up.
But I have no illusions that we will stop global warming. When people are so damn adverse to believing what the scientists have to say that they will believe instead that we can send a giant disc into space to stop it, there really is no hope. I only make my "sacrifices" so that I know that I am doing my own part. |
I did say it was idiotic. The point of my post, as I stated, was that there must be some way to reduce the earth's temperature through technology/science. If the earth is forecast to keep getting hotter regardless of our emissions (as the anti-human-caused-Global-Warming crowd says), is bullfrog power going to save us?
But thanks for using an emoticon to marginalize what I was getting at, I guess you needed it to express yourself better. I am not a space-disc advocate, and I thought I made it clear that I wasn't exactly pushing that as the way to go.
