ya i too think more drastic action needs to be taken, for
sure
(yes, i know this questoin wasn't adressed to me but i cant
help it!)

our recycling initiatives aren't even making THAT much of a
difference in the big picture
ya, we're willing to recycle, but nobody is willing to give
up their gas-guzzling SUV.

i dont think anything will be done though.. no government
wants to take that kind of a risk.. people would hate it if
they had to sacrifice money, or consume less, to help
we will only change when it becomes profitable to do so
sad, really.....

hehe:

Mother Nature started the fight for survival, and now she
wants to quite cus she's loosing!?!? HA!"

hehe.. remember that simpsons?
mr burns:
"RE...CY... CLE? (*scans mental dictionary*) Hm.. i dont
believe i'm familiar with the term, you adorable little
ragamuffin!"

HAAAAAAHAHAH
heh...... lol

recycling is really rather pointless.......check out some
existentialism theory to find out why

Here is something to think about.....they say using paper in
offices is a waste....but are we not being even more
environmentally unfriendly by using gadgets such as laptops
and computers, hand held computers that all need
electricity? I think it is a vicious circle!

ya but energy can come from less destructive methods than
clearing forests,
especially in the future (wind/solar/fusion/ etc)

The thing is though AMinal it's gonna take a lot more than
just me an you to change that kind of thing though. Although
there are a lot of windmill farms for generating electricity
not too far away from where I live.

I fear that we will exhaust our supplies of fossil
fuels..before we make the necessary changes to the way we
live.

ya i agree

I find it hard to comprehend what kind of situation we would
be in when we run out of fossil fuel.

Just imagine if you were told....as from midnight tomorrow,
there will be no more electricity! The impact would be
catostrophic!

That's ok, my discman runs on batteries. :)

Yes, but how are you going to charge them when they are
flat?

ya i think about that a lot too

thats what i was talking about when i said people dont care
about the future
its not an immediate enough concern, so people just dont
care
they keep driving their SUVs around, which they dont need,
knowing that in like 50 years theres gonna be no more gas!
the thing is.. of course there will be
electic/hybrid/hydrogen feul cell cars to replace our
gas-powered cars

but has anyone thought of aircraft!??!

u cant have electric planes.. the batteries would be way to
heavy
and i think the other alternative energies (hydrogen feul
cell) probably wont be powerful enough to power large
passenger jets

point..
