Quote:Can we agree that most of the worlds problems, issues, etc are man made? Rivers and lakes that stink. Air that stinks and in some areas harmful. Now...do these issues factor into some sort of domino effect, which could alter other things? It sure altered the foods we eat. Water we drink. Air we breathe. So, what is the harm in trying to reduce these causes?

As far as the "man made" debate? Man has proven to screw up plenty, and when it comes to the ultimate root cause? Its the almighty dollar. Point being, the uber powerful and rich, whose fortunes come from say, manufacturing, imports,oil,etc will of course want deniers out there. It affects the bottom line. So money is pumped into the bull crap barometer, and putting out the hoax factor. 

And THAT is the bottom line...cuz Stone Cold said so!!!

Agreed. I'd like to add that whether we are the cause of the change in the climate or even a small part of it, we are definitely the cause of dirty air and water as you have said. There are things we can do to fix those are at least greatly improve on them that over time will have a real and lasting effect. It's possible a side effect could be a an improvement in the overall climate as suitable to all life. It's also possible there will be no impact other than directly effecting the air we breathe or the water we drink thus effecting the food we eat. These are real and tangible things we can and, IMO, ought do if for no other reason than we can.
