But that doesn't change the fact that if left unchecked, there's a really high chance that it could significantly alter life as we know it in just a matter of a decade or three. Nonsense. The planet has been here a very long time and survived a lot of bad crap. More importantly, given there is no real evidence that global warming even EXISTS, to think it is going to affect the planet in any way at all over the next three decades is ridiculous.

Z, > But that doesn't change the fact that if left unchecked, there's a really high chance that it could significantly alter life as we know it in just a matter of a decade or three. It's not clear to me that life will indeed be "significantly altered." Everything reasonable I've seen on the subject suggests a shifting equilibrium, not a delicate balance that, if disrupted, can lead to the end of the world. If we have to adapt, we'll have to adapt. Unless of course you think we'll all be moving to the North and South poles over the "next decade or three." Which isn't a "fact," but rather an opinion borne out of the global warming alarmism.
