So, it's been 7 years, and you still haven't learned that 'chad' is also the plural of chad?

Interesting, while chad is the proper plural,  Macmillan sez that 'chads' has recently appeared.

Meh.  Language is dumb, we should stick to something simple like interpretive dance.  :D

what a crock of BS


it has everything to do,
aprox 6 Billions humans populate our planet Earth today and growing,
its about how to feed them all, its about the future energy consumption, oil, nuclear, wind ect. We dont have endless resources, and all this
comming challenges could lead to fight not more for oil but for water.
With the help of global warming this problems could come even faster.

Maybe if the majority of those billions got off their bovine habits of sheer consumption for little if any contribution to progress?
6 Billion wouldn't be a problem not only if consumption was more efficient, but also if we weren't reduced to the planet's habitat.  Global warming just taps at people's knees for a jerk reaction, without getting them any closer to realizing the full picture.

Can Gore exchange his Nobel Prize for carbon credits for his Tennessee mansion?

Lazs, we'll run out of space sooner or later. You see this yourself (unless I'm mistaken) in Kali.  And instinctively people probably would rather have more space than not, probably on the scale of a continent or two (if they were left to choose).
And if this isn't true for most people, it's true for enough that all the space in the world is already too little.

Does ANYone think that the things Gore points to as the major causes of 'climate change' will still be the order of the day 100 years from now?. It would seem the  fossil fuel issue will work itself out, then they can find some OTHER thing to deride capitalism about

moot.. where have we run out of space?   why are we destined to?  I can't see the future but...  even without a computer model.. I see the populations of much of the worlds civilized countries declining.    the pest hole countries will have war or famine or disease to thin the numbers... any of a number of things will happen before we overpopulate.

I just get tired of the knee jerk "the sky is falling" crap all the time.   It never happens but a new disaster scenario is never far off of the last failed one.

I am waiting to see the "we have now run out of #####" announcement.... it never happens.

We would be out of about 100 important resources by now if you believed everything the alarmist have said in the last 5 decades or so.

run out of oil?  oooooops... discover the biggest field ever next year...  run out of water?  impossible.    every drop there ever was is still here.
