Really… You don’t seem to get the consequences of an eco collapse. That reall is what we are heading for. I think that if you truly grasped the magnitude of the global catastrophe we are facing, you would see that I am more than even handed in my tone.

LVQ, this is exactly the evangelical, over-the-top, doomsaying stuff that really makes me GAZE over anything you have to say. Why is it always a “catastrophe” with you? Maybe it’s not a catastrophe. Warming temperatures in Earth’s past have not been catastrophic to life living on the planet. Why an “eco collapse”? For the most part in Earth’s long history, warmer temperatures have led to blooms of lif, not collaspes. It is usually cooling temperatures (and we’re near the bottom right now) that does that.

You show you are a doomsayer on par with the evangelical nut on the street corner holding a sign saying “Repent! for the end is nigh!” with these types of comments. We’re not headed for an eco collapse, and we’re not going to have a catsatrophe. We will have a change, but it is not the end.
