Man Is Contributing To This Crisis-IPCC

Below is the link for the IPCC Report which I intend to read in its entirety. Honestly though, based on what I see of this world I believe a portion of the affects are not going to be mitigated, but I still believe we can slow a good portion of it down and prevent it form getting worse if we take responsibility for our actions now, and we must see a plan to deal with those affects that are now too far gone (and in my opinion that includes glacial ice melt.) If we do not, we have simply betrayed this planet and our children. The question we now have to ask however, is even though this is now known, can mankind change its ways and disenthrall itself enough to mitigate what we can and adapt to what we cannot and can it be done in time? Therein lies the moral dilemma we face.

And yet, even with this report, AEI, the RW think tank that cares more about profit margins than this planet is offering BRIBE money to scientists who would be willing to dispute this report. Now that is not only desperate, it is despicable and morally reprehensible.

All English secondary schools will be showing An Inconvenient Truth to their students. Here, NOTHING. I don't know if people truly understand the responsibility we have to our younger generation to inform them of this seriously and to arm them with knowledge and the tools they will need to address this in their lives as they will inherit WHAT WE MAKE. We simply CANNOT leave them and their children a world like this. And imagine, in every secondary school in England. WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH THIS COUNTRY and with the people in it who should be DEMANDING that this movie be shown to all secondary students in this country? The NTSA shouldn't be able to steamroll people into submission on this if enough people get behind it. It is most definitely PARTISAN POLITICS on this issue and greed that will be the primary causes of progress not being made on it in this country, and that will be to the detriment of the entire world. And that is why it is a moral issue.

business as usual, worldwide
