1/2. So, do you believe that humans are causing global warming? Or is it natural?

3. Do you believe in global warming at all?

4. Do you like iced tea?


Even if global warming comes, so what? In the first place, they need some sort of proof of the consequences of global warming. In the second, even if the consequences ARE dire, bad stuff happens. You deal. It's called "Being a grownup." Is the cost of the steps needed to reduce global warming worth the result? After all, in the hottest parts of the world, people can survive very well! Beachfront property is far more expensive than those little boats they live on in tropical swamp communities. And if the overall planet DOES get significantly higher, we'll take a page from the Mexican book and overrun Canada. And in this case, it will be the more populous country swarming under the less populated, so it should be much easier. There is a ton of land that is not very usuable thanks to the near-artic climate up there. Hell, you could fit the entire population of the lower 48 into Alaska with plenty of room! I rather think we'll survive.
