What are you getting at?
That the hysteria may just be that.... hysteria.
Also, assuming that it is perfectly natural, aren't we still in danger and should do something about it?
The weather is always a potential danger, whether you add humans in to the mix or not. The question is, what can you do if it is a natural cycle?
What do you think it means if it is natural and not man-caused?
That nature will do as she pleases. So have a contingency plan for worst case scenarios, place your faith in Christ Jesus and Him crucified, and deal with it. I don't see many other options.
But Jar once said, something to the effect of,
even if it is a natural cycle, will it hurt to reduce emissions? He makes a very valid point. No, I don't think it would make it worse. Problem is, we have more pressing issues to deal with-- most notably, how to convert energy without fossil fuels to get us to point A to point Z, and everything in between, in the meantime?
Do you think we should just sit back and let it happen?
If it is not anthropogenically caused, what can you do?
Personally, I'm not convinced that global warming is man-caused. But it seems that unless we change some things, that we are only helping it get even hotter.
Provided the dinosaurs had the intelligence to understand it, could they have done something to ameliorate the cataclysmic ice age?
Coleman's argument is that Global Warming is not going to be devistating.
Reduce emissions... I'm sure it can't hurt. Recycle, even though it costs just as much energy to recycle than it does for them to start fresh. Don't pollute the waters or the earth. Be good stewards of the earth. And above all, respect nature and her power.
Beyond that, what should we be doing? The way I see it is that we have a lot of hard talkers with not a lot of follow through. How about the loudest put their money where their mouth is and get rid of their car, get rid of plastics, don't use electricity, etc, etc...
Because they aren't really saying anything so profound that would make themselves walk the talk.
