| the-pi-guy said: People shouldn't have to live in the third world just to be economically friendly. Climate change is not a personal thing. The amount of ice at the poles is declining, sea levels are rising. Those are big deals. Not happening as fast as some alarmists are claiming, but it is going to be a big issue long term. It doesn't have to be about living like a cavemen. We can create new industries, figure out new ways to recycle garbage, work with renewable energy sources. There's a lot of potential in those fields, and I think countries should encourage companies to work towards those goals. |
And people shouldn't be forced to fund for a supposedly more greener future that most of us will probably never see or know whether or not the payoff would have been worth it ...
I don't deny the evidence for climate change however over reacting about it as if humans are the main and by at large factor for the cause of it does no good when we have yet to determine their extent ...
I'm all for a more ecofriendly world but I don't think forcing standards upon everyone is the way to go about it ...
