As long as the tanker drivers do not strike.


I fully agree with that statement Snapzzz, but what I doubt, is that humans (and tanker drivers) can be counted among the life that will evolve.

I have these strange pictures in my mind of a visitor to the planet in a million years time, being met by giant cockroaches, all having fun on skis on a planet almost completely covered in ice :shock:

Oops, jus realised this is not the general wibble thread :oops:



I remember something my brother said to me before he died a few years ago.
He said, "Jon. humans are the only species of life on earth that do not learn from their mistakes".......how right he was.

Snapzzz, I am inclined to agree that we can be incredibly arrogant as a race, and I think the approach to "global warming" at the moment is wrong, but I should point out that we do not need to have kept weather records ourselves. The planet has done it for us, and by drilling through the ice at the polar regions, or by taking soil and rock samples from other areas, we have a pretty good record of the weather and climate over the past several millennia.


Yes, you are quite right in that respect but is uspect that in the 4.5 billion years the earth has been in existence even those records are small fry.

To me global warming is a load of tosh.
Why are we so arrogant as a species to believe that in the short period of time we have been keeping weather records (must be only a few hundred years) we have gotten it all figured out?
