Wharf Rat, I read your post with interest. I noted the oft repeated phrase "it is only going to get worse". Then the final admonition in the last line of the piece "The time to act is now." My question is "WHY?" IF there is no God and man is nothing more than the highest developed animal on the planet and when an individual human dies he ceases to exist, WHAT IS THE BIG DEAL? If all that warmers fear comes to pass, mankind will in great measure die out on this planet and then, over time, the Earth will heal or it will not heal and what real difference does it make. It certainly makes little to no difference to those who exist at the present because in 150 years every currently living human being will have ceased to exist. Every time a human dies the Carbon footprint of mankind on this Earth is reduced by one. It appears the best way to protect and preserve Earth would be the mass, systematic extermination of humankind. Since you believe it is humankind that is the enemy of the Earth's preservation as a habitat for humanity, the elimination of humankind is the total solution. But if humankind is eliminated then there is no need for a habitat for humanity. So why care about Earth if it is not of benefit to mankind and why care about mankind if all we each have to look forward to is the end of existence. If life has no meaning beyond the brief material existence we experience then why be so dramatically concerned with the well being of mankind and the health of the planet. If all we have to recommend having existed at all is the pleasures we experience in our brief existence here on this Earth, then why be concerned with anything else?
