The way I see it - Global Warming is happening whether or not we as a society/species are responsible for it. If we don't start preparing for it, like, right now, it's going to get ugly. They're already saying we may have a water shortage in Calgary within the next 50 years.
Imagine what places like India, China, the Middle East, and Africa are going to go through.
Personally, I don't understand why - in a province with such high quality grain (which is one of the primary ingredients in synthetic diesel fuel) that is mostly sitting in fields rotting because nobody is buying it, doesn't hop on that bandwagon right now, and start developing some kind of alternate fuel source. It still pollutes, but not nearly as badly as fossil fuel. It's the step in the right direction, at least.
