The whole global warming issue sure is a loaded one. Not sure whether we&#39;re causing it or not either, but all the CO2 that man is pumping into the atmosphere (about 9 billion tons/year, at the moment) can&#39;t be helping. Here is a good explanation about the CO2 in the atmosphere issue from National Geographic, in case you missed my post on fb.<br />http://ngm.nationalgeographic.com/big-idea/05/carbon-bath-pg2<br />Keep up the good work!<br />BradBrad Nicholsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36450690.post-32841457844821294582010-01-20T23:28:13.899-07:002010-01-20T23:28:13.899-07:00I think this post is very interesting and well thought out. I know we&#39;ve discussed the issue of global warming briefly in person, but it&#39;s definitely fascinating to read about your view in depth. I think there&#39;s even room for another blog post about God and global warming and te beliefs that surround both topics. <br /><br />I&#39;m not so sure I agree with the idea that it&#39;s &quot;arrogant&quot; to think that we are affecting climate change. I know you used that word before with me when talking about the issue, but I am not sure it is arrogance. You are correct in saying that the Earth cools and warms itself periodically through the years. However, do you not think that the growth in population (thus the lessening of plants and animals that we all eat) affects the Earth? Do you not think that the creation and use of more cars that emit carbon dioxide and monoxide into the air isn&#39;t affecting the atmosphere moreso than it was in the past? <br /><br />I am not well-versed in the topic, but I do think that everyone and everything effects the Earth. We cut down natural resources to build buildings and roads and streets. We are overpopulating the Earth thus not allowing it to produce as much as it needs to go through it&#39;s regular cooling and warming. I do believe that we are destroying this Earth. Whether you want to call it Global Warming or not, I do think we are affecting this Earth more than you let on. And soon the effects will become more and more apparent. IMHO of course.Laurenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13703569559405885180noreply@blogger.com
