That's another question I had about global warming, Scanner. Just what is so bad about CO2? The last time I heard, plants use CO2 in photosynthesis and produce oxygen which is beneficial to us all. It doesn't add up to me. I'm not pretending to be an expert in global warming, but am just using my common sense. Now based on that, my common sense tells me we shouldn't be cutting down every tree on a lot when new development comes in and shouldn't be clearing the rain forests either.
I don't think that being anti-global warming theory is necessarily equivalent to trashing the environment either. I think anybody would agree that dumping chemical waste in NJ's backyard is not a good thing for the environment or society.
Change is part of society and economics. If people can't adopt to change then they'll be left in the dust. But just because some national leader (Al Gore) spouts drabble long enough and the media takes the bait doesn't mean that we need to follow as well. As rational people, we need to examine with reason what is being shoveled to us and ask if it makes sense. With all the inconsistencies I've heard about global warming and the money trail I talked about above, global warming just doesn't pass my smell test.
