That's a shocking thing to say given that the polar caps are melting now. Some experts say we have to reverse course within the decade or it will be too late. The likelihood of that happening is slim to none. Al Gore was ridiculed when he wrote in his book that the internal combustion engine is the biggest threat in the history of mankind, or words to that effect. I wonder if that still sounds ridiculous. Global warming is also abetted by the extreme and permanent destruction of the rainforests, to be obliterated within 40 years. Trees absorb CO2. It's amazing how uninformed the populace is about this subject. If they knew, I wonder if they'd care. ------------------------------------------------------------------ To change your Lit-Ideas settings (subscribe/unsub, vacation on/off, digest on/off), visit www.andreas.com/faq-lit-ideas.html
