sorry for the caps, but people need to see this (as I doubt
major media will cover this... its not on CNN yet)

link

The Pentagon and the World Bank have both released
statements, saying that the current rate of global warming
is more a threat then terrorism. By 2007, Amsterdamn could
be gone... read the link for more info.

I'm suprised Greenpeace didn't say

"Don't say we didn't warn you"

Fuck me Zeus, that is fucking serious.

i find it really hard to believe that we'd see those kind of
effects that soon... not because i don't trust scientists
who talk about global warming, but because i can't believe
that if the threat is so clearly eminent now, why wasn't it
so clear that this was brought to our attention when the
whole kyoto accord was such a big deal?

if there is reasoning that you are aware of, please share it
with me... i'm interested in the truth, and if i'm wrong
about this, i'd like to hear it

most people (thanks to their media sources + politicians)
have misplaced/misinformed concepts of what is or isnt a
threat.
i reckon a lot of people are more worried about terrorism
than the effects of pollution. look at the facts + iits
fairly apparent which is more likely to kill you.
we seem to love in a culture of fear. and that fear is
nurtured and directed to the benefit of others.. and to
society's detriment.

Just enjoy life, ot do something about it. Posting a thread
on an electronic music board isn't exactly going to change
much. Become politically active not just moan on a board
about how bad everything is.

Might I suggest:

The Pentagon 'report' is in fact a theory paper. Many of
these worst case scenario papers are drafted, dealing with
all manner of possible calamities.

so they can demand action by thier government, prepare for
what is to come

if no one knows, nothing can be done to help fight it.

if the general public finds out, they will demand that
something be done.... meaning more funding to programs to
help battle the effects, and cut down on the causes of
global warming

dont give me that "what can I do" bs. Everything effects
everyone. my telling 20 people on here, can cause a chain of
effects. Dont be so narrow minded.

i cannot believe for one second that you are accusing a
credible organisation such as greenpeace for using emotive
language and other manipulative media techniques to
brainwash the ill-informed public into their point of view
primarily for their own benefit?

But after this thread runs its natural course and dies what
will you do about it? Fair enough you are concerned and it
seems as though it has shocked you, but unless you are
willing to go further and do something about it yourself a
million of these threads won't make a bit of difference.

No, you will remember about it...but will you take action?

Are you a member of any political group? Are you active in
any political arena? If not you aren't doing anything about
the problem you're just another sidelined viewer and no use
to anyone.

Heh.

They even quote a statement that confirms it's all just a
theoretical exercise:

The report was commissioned "to develop a plausible
scenario for abrupt climate change that can be used to
explore implications for food supply, health and disease,
commerce and trade, and their consequences for national
security."
