Even as many environmentalists today
raise strident voices over concerns of global warming, a few little
people such as myself embrace the concept wholeheartedly! You see, it
takes money to heat ones home in the winter where I live. And, if the
winters are getting milder due to all the carbon we humans are
throwing into the air, I can live with that. 'Let the coal-fired
plants rage full force', I would shout!
After all, it's a no-win situation that humanity now finds itself in,
anyway. Even though America has made great strides in improving its air
quality, other countries, like China and India with their billions of
citizens have quickly erased any progress we've made. (And, with new
coal-fired electric plants coming on line almost weekly, don't expect to see
much in the way of improvement). Meanwhile, Third World countries are
slashing our world's rain forests and burning them just as fast as they
can go! (And, when they're not doing that, they're copulating like crazy
making about 358,000 babies each day)! Even with those who die (about
155,000 each day), we're still on a pretty steep growth curve!
So, rather than having a conniption fit
over global warming, forgive me if I am focusing on other factors
that could well see the extinction of not only Western Civilization
but even of mankind itself!
