Because the entire argument smacks of conservative talk showesque rhetoric...I actually vote republican but checked the website and found out that I was allowed to think for myself
As for the "argument", like I said, I spent a good portion of my life involved in envionmental science...not crusading, but in the actual nuts and bolts study of it, hundreds of hours logged underwater measuring coral and taking water temperatures, analyzing it againt similar data gathered over decades...collecting rainfall and testing for acidity and again comparing that to similar data collected over a number of years...I am not making an argument, I am just saying that you guys are wrong, and that a large part of your insistence is based on political leanings rather than scientific data...the earth is not healing itself, the big suv's are damaging the envionment, but not nearly at the rate that the millions of vehicles in unregulated parts of the world with much larger populations are, we have never lived in an age that has produced so much non biodegradable materials with chemical waste byproducts that do not disappear from the environment and that the effects on the ozone layer from pollution occuring today are not seen for approximately 30 years time, which considering the industralization of the world over that time period streching back from today accounts for a considerable amount of damage already "in the bank"...water temperatures are rising, marine ecosystems are being altered because of it, and the breadth of the total effects of minute climatic changes in the marine environment are startling and not easily reversed...there is no "other" side of the argument Savage...we are killing the planet and we are a long way past the crying indian on the side of the road looking at the trash on the shoulder of the highway...
BTW, thanks for the personal attack...keep it civil please and don't involve past discussions where we have had differences of opinion...
I'm done here guys, go ahead and have the last word...
