We can't do squat about the natural cycles - but we do need to do what we're able to do about our contribution as a species.

Thanks.
And yet for this suggestion, I will likely get raked over the coals as some hyper-enviro nutjob.
But, I suppose it's true to our history that we won't do jack until the 11th hour, when it's exponentially more difficult. We'll whine about saving a few bucks to put controls on ourselves, only to end up spending trillions later on. Better safe than sorry isn't a common credo, unfortunately.
I'm not radically pro-environment, but I'd never thought I'd see the day where people where actively
anti, as the GW deniers appear to be.
