Jodie Capella: All is lost! ALL IS LOST!!!
Madie Strople: Basically lets put it this way, in 100 years, we still may be living with all this new science and technology, but the planet won't be here, unless we drastically change our living habits! Water levels will rise due to the melting of the glaciers. In as close as 50 yea! rs, the state of Flroida, parts of California, a lot of central america, and the provinces of Prince Edward Island, Nova Scotia and Labrador will be underwater. I recommend watching "An Inconvenient Truth".
Florencia Manolakis: no i don`t think it will or can kill us and most scientists don`t even know if its a bad thing because in ancient records the earth heated up naturally more than usual then went back to normal so it could just be a natural thing the earth does.same with the ozone hole they don`t know if it really grew because the first time they went to measure it they measured it wrong. i know! and now they`re thinking about releasing stuff on purpose to help fix it or so they say but they could screw up are whole planet and cause a ice age if too much is let out. i`ve decided they`ll all idiots...Show more
Kara Tabian: conserving energy and gas is a good way to start. Don't use the car as much, walk or bike. When you buy things watch for the Energy ! Star seal, and don't leave the lights on and all that. Thats ! a small part, but if everyone did, it'd sure help.
Ira Porietis: If the heart heats up even a few degrees, it can cause disasterous effects to our environment, most notably the melting of the icecaps. The extra water will raise Earth's sea level and displace millions of people. Also, the extra heat will disrupt Earth's biggest natural resource, the ocean. Warmer waters will cause algae to bloom, which results in oxygen deprivation to fish and kill them. Warmer water also holds less oxygen than cold water. Our oceans have natural currents that are essential to keeping coastal regions like England cool (they had a bad heat wave recently).Warm water also feeds hurricanes.Chances are, global warming wont kill us in the short term but thousands of species will not adapt and perish. Lives will be displaced and communities will be disrupted.Basically, we're causing the Earth to change faster and this will result in lots of problems in the future.And yes, in the long run too ! much heat can kill us....Show more
Granville Stray: hmmmm...this could be a tough one. Considering how the Earth's climate is controlled by solar radiation which streams from the Sun, we really can't. Solar radiation (made up of photons) heat the Earth's atmosphere which causes the air to move at different rates, kind of like a current in a river. These movements in our atmosphere is what we call weather. The impact of people on the earth's atmosphere is very little if any at all. Keep studying science and you will soon be able to recognise science facts rather than pop culture trends ie. 'global warming'.The only thing that would really block solar radiation from striking the earth is a very, very large umbrella....Show more
Devon Kalberer: No, we didn't start it. Do you honestly believe the planet's climate stayed the same for thousands of years, until humans came along with factories for less than a millisecond of geological time?

Elfreda Grossen: Wind power is one of the most environment friendly means to generate electricity. The time take! n to set up a wind power project is very short compared to the time tak! en to set up a conventional thermal power plant using coal or nuclear energy. A wind farm can be set up in areas where the wind is fast enough to power a wind turbine. If wind turbines are set up in all available locations, the energy generated will exceed the world's power requirements more details at http://altenergy.in/...Show more
German Thal: Global Warming Catastrophe Debunked By Scientists On Fox SpecialBy Rev. Louis P. Sheldon Chairman, Traditional Values Coalition May 23, 2006 - Fox News reporter David Asman hosted an important investigative report on Sunday evening entitled, “Global Warming: The Debate Continues.†This latest report was a counterpoint to a Fox feature that aired last November on the same topic. Asman’s report featured numerous scientists and Senator James Inhofe (R-OK) who chairs the U.S. Senate Committee On Environment and Public Works.All of those interviewed for this show were skeptical of the claims made by former Vice President! Al Gore and radical environmental activists on the causes, extent and potential damage that global warming might cause to the future of our planet. Much of the hysteria generated by Gore and his cronies in Hollywood about global warming causing melting icecaps or the flooding of coastal cities, is unsupported by scientific data, according to meteorologists and climatologists who were interviewed for Asman’s special. In fact, many of the same environmentalists in the 1970s who were screaming about pollution bringing about a new ice age, are now claiming just the opposite with their dire warnings about global warming. They were wrong then; they are wrong now. Those scientific experts who were interviewed by Asman pointed out that the computer models used by Al Gore and other environmental activists to predict future world flooding, etc., are notoriously unreliable. These models fail to take into account the extraordinarily complex nature of the environment. Two of the scie! ntists interviewed by Asman said that activity on the sun may be a majo! r factor that is overlooked by the Chicken Little environmentalists. Radicals like Al Gore typically look at the worst-case scenariosâ€"and those are based on flawed computer modelsâ€"that fail to take into account future scientific breakthroughs. Gore and his cronies also ignore the current efforts being made by the Bush Administration to encourage such technology as energy plants that convert coal into gasâ€"or technology that converts grains into low emission fuels. Senator James Inhofe has called the claim that global warming is a man-made problem, as “the world’s greatest hoax.†I am convinced he is correctâ€"and many reputable scientists agree with him. Former surgeon and best-selling author Michael Crichton wrote “State of Fear†in 2004 to expose the radical environmental movement and its wildly inaccurate claims about future ecological disasters being caused by global warming. Crichton researched the environmental issue for three years before he began writ! ing this bookâ€"and wrote a devastating critique of environmentalism in his author’s message in “State of Fear.†Crichton observed: “Nobody knows how much warming will occur in the next century. The computer models vary by 400%, de facto proof that nobody knows. … We can’t ‘assess’ the future, nor can we ‘predict’ it. These are euphemisms. We can only guess. An informed guess is just a guess.†So, the next time Al Gore gives a speech about man-made global warming, melting ice caps, and flooded coastal cities, keep in mind that he’s just guessingâ€"and basing his wild opinions on the worst case scenarios developed by unreliable computer models. (And, remember that this is Hollywood’s pick for the presidential run in 2008.) Al Gore has a history of making statements that are unsupported by the facts. Entire web sites have been developed to chronicle Gore’s misstatements, including one published by National Review magazine several years ago. This is! hardly a man who could be trusted with our national defense or environ! ment if he became president....Show more
Katheryn Skrobacki: No, we will not die from the extra heat. People will still flock to Florida for vacation because it is warm there. The extra heat may change the glaciers and snowpack. It could change the ecology of the land and oceans, giving some plants and animals an advantage in new locations, and causing other plants and animals to have a hard time surviving. No one knows for certain what the changes will look like. But humans are quite adaptive. If the sea rises 12 inches, we will move to higher ground. There's plenty of higher ground. We are in great danger of dying from OTHER things, not global warming....Show more

Cierra Gadbaw: Research! , read, and understand issues relating to technology development of what was the "Integral Fast Reactor" program. It was canceled in a short sighted decision when oil became a very cheap source of energy. It is now starting to be revived plus some improvements as "Advanced Fast Reactor" It will need political support from the public if we are going to dodge the green house bullet. It was designed to extract 100 times more energy from uranium ore than is currently created and thus generates only a tiny fraction of the waste volume being generated by current thermal reactors. It can take current stockpiles of waste and extract the remaining 99% of energy it contains while reducing it's toxicity rating as well as the duration it must be buried from tens of thousands of years to several hundred years. Using all the uranium already mined there is enough energy in it to provide the total US need for energy for hundreds of years. Fears of proliferation come from confusing! the chemical PUREX process developed during the cold war from the pyro! process that can not create weapons grade plutonium. And ignore much more likely sources of plutonium already available from Russia, North Korea, Pakistan, etc... Other renewable sources of energy (solar, wind, waves, etc...) need time to improve and will grow into a decentralized industry in the future, but can not displace fossil fuels in time to avert significant climate change. Solving fusion power has been a badly under estimated problem and looks no closer than it did 20 years ago. Grown energy crops do not have the energy density to significantly displace fossil energy use even if all farmland is diverted to grow them and an efficient process can be found that breaks down cellulose into small hydrocarbon chains. Conservation will take us far and can save us money but can not reduce our usage of energy any where near the level where fossil fuels could be eliminated....Show more

Donald Caravalho: Worst case scenario.The melting of ice reduces the reflectivity of Earth and, along with other positive feedback mechanisms, speeds up global warming. Ocean currents undergo massive changes. In as little as 20 years we see:Sea levels 1-5 feet higher, causing massive coastal flooding and hundreds of billions of dollars in property losses. Massive disruptions to agriculture. Rich nations spend additional hundreds of billions of dollars to cope, relocating crops and building massive new irrigation systems.Poor countries can't afford that. Bangladesh, among others, has much agr! icultural land a few feet above sea level. In those countries millions die of starvation.Disruptions of warming ocean currents totally trash agriculture in Europe by making the climate colder. Europe goes into an economic depression coping. That hurts our economy even more.Worse than worst case. China refuses to cut its' emissions even though the problem is obvious. There's a war by desperate nations to make them stop.
