So within 5 years, if government around the globe does not curb carbon emissions dramatically, then nothing we do will stop run away global warming.
So let's say that 5 years passes without the uber dramatic legislation and we loose all hope. Can we go back to burning cheap coal?

Originally posted by apathistIt is articles like this that is making the issue a circus, not me. Articles like this are designed to stir people in the short term by making them believe that if they don't act now, the world will end. Well 5 years has come and gone, and according to the article we are now all doomed regardless.
Ha ha all a big joke. Just keep the bread and circuses coming tyvm.
Playing Chicken Little is not only annoying, it destroys credibility.
Originally posted by whodeyYeah, the article didn't actually claim the world was going to end. It claimed there would be catastrophic climate change. How about we take what steps we can so that the catastrophe is smaller than it otherwise would be?
So why not just leave the coal burners alone?
Why not just let us live what time we have in peace?

So the taxation for salvation mantra will continue.
