So 9 potential errors out of tons of factual information given in that movie make in biased and unrealiable. Talk about cherrypicking.

ok, fine, if some of you are too close-minded to think that we are negatively affecting our atmosphere at least you can realize that there are only a finite amount of the materials we use to create energy and by reducing our reliance on these materials and the overall use of them is a very good thing that in reality is a must for the longterm.

Then by using alternative fuels and making everything we can more efficient we also reduce the atmospheric waste.

 

Question, will these changes take effect during my lifetime? If not, what should my motivation be to take steps that require hardship on my part, to prevent said changes?

 

During your lifetime...maybe. I guess that all depends on how quickly China and India keep industrializing and increasing their use of coal.

Even if it doesn't, is there no one younger than you that you have any care for? Are you seriously that selfish and inhumane that you don't care if human civilization continues?

If not, then people like you really disturb me.

You're only 25 years old, according to your profile, so you could easily live another 50-60 years.

Well, if you sooner or later have children, I bet your take on the future of this planet will change quickly. I know I can't look at my three kids and completely dismiss the notion of Global Warming. Especially when so much science backs it up.
