Al Gore: I'm not a vegetarian but I have cut back sharply on the meat that I eat! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4bLb23cPd_4&feature=player_embedded
Climate chief Lord Stern: give up meat to save the planet ! People will need to turn vegetarian if the world is to conquer climate change, according to a leading authority on global warming. Read for yourself! http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/environment/article6891362.ece
Thanks for your concern but:if it gets too warm for me I'll just move or turn up the ac if it's okay with you. Besides you have a strange definition of adapt, note it's a verb which implies action. Main Entry: adapt Pronunciation: \ə-ˈdapt, a-\ Function: verb Etymology: French or Latin; French adapter, from Latin adaptare, from ad- + aptare to fit, from aptus apt, fit Date: 15th century transitive verb : to make fit (as for a specific or new use or situation) often by modificationintransitive verb
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Lord Stern, who said that he was not a strict vegetarian himself, was speaking on the eve of an all-parliamentary debate on climate change" Yes killthesunshine, moderation is good.
Here's the long term view: http://www.universetoday.com/guide-to-space/the-sun/the-suns-future/ So you AGW fools are barking up the wrong tree.
"In 1.1 billion years from now, the Sun will be 10% brighter than it is today" Who's the fool here then? Or at the very least severely lacking in the numeracy department. A 10% increase in solar radiation over 1.1 billion years would be an increase of ~0.0000001% (assuming simple linear growth) per decade, really is not in the same league as 0.2C change in mean global temperature per decade due to AGW as (conservatively) forecast by IPCC. The natural history of main sequence stars is rather well known and has been for decades. It is elementary astronomy. You think that scientists researching climate are not aware of these things, and it's taken your, hmmm ..... diligent, research with Google to shine some light, so to speak, on the problem?
Yes I certainly do think the IPCC is just that dumb. I think they are just politicizing a non-problem for extortion purposes. However if the IPCC are correct in their predictions , I still just do not care. Their hysteria does not alarm me anymore than the work of Thomas Malthus or that nutcase Paul Ehrlich. Furthermore I don't find the concept of AGW even if accurate worthty of one thin dime of my net resources.. IOW: Bring it on!
