It's been changing since day one and will continue changing long after we're gone. What we need to do is help our Earth survive us. We need to stop killing things like rain forests and waterways. This is where the scientists come in. They need to get busy, like you said, and find alternative ways for us to do things that will give the same or similar results we've become used to. Without that, those who have become TOO used to their ways and don't see any need for change, will kick up an almighty stink.Riverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14794655013673748992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-968059214758329257.post-81893815968580381832015-02-28T18:30:05.978-05:002015-02-28T18:30:05.978-05:00Working with feet would not be my chosen specialit...Working with feet would not be my chosen speciality, nor working in the colon either, LOL, but there are plenty of both type of doctors around.....<br /><br />I absolutely do not know enough about global warming or not global warming to render an opinion.

I don't think it was the carbon fuels and cow farts that melted the glaciers and brought an end to the previous four or five ice ages.<br /><br />Did you even notice that the biggest doom criers of global warming continue to stomp their giant carbon footprints all over the world? They fire up their private jets to go give speeches about how we should collect methane from cows' anuses with strap-on plastic bags so they don't warm the atmosphere.Valhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13025832536749983018noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-968059214758329257.post-75974045033144117412015-02-28T15:42:08.637-05:002015-02-28T15:42:08.637-05:00Does the climate change?

Of course, if it didn't, why did we have an ice age all those thousands of years ago?<br />Is it going to stop changing and stay just the way it is simply because people are now here to record it? Of course not.<br />Should we be working to make sure we take as good care of this planet as we possibly can, in every way? Of course, it's the only one we have right now. We don't have to agree that there is climate change or global warming or anything else to do that.messymimihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10649529601786689712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-968059214758329257.post-21725218742167141722015-02-28T15:26:33.953-05:002015-02-28T15:26:33.953-05:00I am leaning toward your mad scientists coming up ...I am leaning toward your mad scientists coming up with a perfect solution for we are moving too slowly to really make a dent in the --yes--Global Warming via regulations.

The climate...You should have used Proctologist! Lol<br />The climate is cyclical, unless you're a hard core creationist it is generally accepted that the whole planet was subtropical. So warm it supported giant cold blooded reptiles. Then it got cold, how cold?<br />Well they didn't call it the "Ice Age" for nothing bunky! Guess what, it started getting warm again...<br />Will it get as warm as in the days of the dinosaurs? <br />Who knows. Is it possible we are helping the process along? Sure.<br />All I know is we'll all be dead by the time it makes any difference...Joe Ormerodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03337984962516170189noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-968059214758329257.post-54963230288090619322015-02-28T10:52:24.188-05:002015-02-28T10:52:24.188-05:00Remember in the 80s when the earth was going to fr...Remember in the 80s when the earth was going to freeze.
