Of course we have ... ( 4 months ago by CorkedMagician)
Of course we have to change the way we live. But we have to go about it in a reasonable fashion. Look at what happens when people panic about clmate change and don't do the research. You get Biofuels and if you've watched the news lately you'll know that about 100 million people are at risk of entering the greatest famine of the past couple hundred years. People in haiti are eating mud because of our solution to climate change. Take it slow, we have a while now before peak oil. Lets get it right

Yeah it continue to exist but pollution is still a really big problem whether or not it's causing global warming. Thousands of factories dump gallons of waste into our drinking water. What do you have to say about that? Drink aroooouuuund the pollution bn the water just the clear water? Get real.

(anotehr responce to "truebrain") You're not just stupid you're extremely arrogant and ignorant (they should somehow put those words together because it's so common these days) But did you not just watch that? "I'm just one person" is what you're basically saying and you saw how much of a different "just one person" made. Good lord do you have one bit of common sense? Has you head shrunk from the lack of use of your already dull and void brain.

What century do you live on? Wake up and smell the pollution and global warming, seriously, no offense but you need to start educating yourself and thinking things through instead of just repeating what some people say and insulting others..

Humankind dominated ... ( 1 month ago by cienwcieniachcieni)
Humankind dominated other species in the World therefore, should take responsibility for our Planet and carefully maintain it. But humankind destroys mother nature, because we think that domination = unpunished exploitation of natural resources without consequence
No!!!
DOMINATION = RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE WEAKER
(animals, plants, other people), responsibility for our World!!!
