Now You See Them (but They Could Soon Vanish)

Well to all who wanna argue about global warming and climate change or whatever you are talking about, it would be MUCH more helpful if you would participate in actions like buying fuel efficient cars, commuting, biking/walking, conserving water, and conserving energy.
If you haven't noticed, energy prices are going up. Woah. Yeah gas is around 3.75$++ per gallon here in Missouri (yes I know we have the some of the cheapest gas don't tackle me for that). Now instead of complaining and whining and using up all the oxygen trying to argue for a completely idiotic belief (that global warming doesn't exist), you could shut your mouth and do the things listed in the first paragraph!
Also, coal is running out, gasoline is running out, oil is sparse. Now unless you wanna try to develop hybrid lawn mowers or push an old fashioned mower, I suggest that we conserve oil and gas. Also, roads require oil! Tired of your street being bumpy or full of potholes??? Buy a more fuel efficient car so that oil doesn't cost as much!!!
Well I hope nobody hates me for chewing you out but you needed it.

Keith, I think Sonny was yanking your chain. But, global warming is a deception- at least the way it has been put forth by some politicians and the media.
Notice how often you now here climate change as opposed to global warming? Climate change can be used because it does take place as it always has. For those of you that believe every "global warming' statement by Al Gore and the media maybe you should look into the move by the UK courts to force educators to show a disclaimer if they present Inconvient Lies to students.
Just as I expected, companies are now using ‘global warming’ as a marketing tool. Over 300 ‘green’ products were brought to the market this past year. Sadly, it’s about power and money and good intentioned people are excepting all the hype.
None of what I write here states climate change doesn’t exist or that we should not protect our air, water and land. I promote conservation- especially the forests of Africa which are the only natural habitat for gorillas.
Of the mountain gorilla subspecies there are over 700 remaining. That is a very small number given the fact these animals are susceptible to the same diseases as humans. And they are under threat of poaching and being killed for 'political' reasons as happened last year.

Listen, take your hummer and your so-called "beliefs" and go back to Georgia where you came from. Stop spewing your conservative crap on this site, if you want to stop spending $100 on gas buy a smaller car you idiot.
P.S., the word sole is the underside of a shoe or boot. The word you were looking for is soul. Sounds like you need to go back to school and brush up on your vocab./spelling

So what if some gorillas and bears die and go extenct. Thousands of animals have been extencted because they couldn't adopt. Some of them tasted good too. It't don't effect me one bit. And so what if some ice melts off a volcano in Africa. That just means more water so those starving people can grow more of their own food so the US don't have to spend my tax money on feeding them. That's a good thing. The US needs to spend money on more roads and drilling for more oil in the ANWAR. I'm tired of sitting in traffic and paying $90 to fill up my Hummer each week.
First they said the Green House Effect was going to destroy the planet. It didn't so they made up Global Warming. Global warming is a lie by the liberal atheists to make you give up your God-given rights. God put man here to use the resources of the plante for man's benefit; not to protect some animal that got no sole. And when we run out, God will just put more animals for us to hunt and eat. If we are worthy. That's why all people need to except Jesus Christ as their one and only true Saviour. That's why we need to win the war on terror to convert all the non-believers.
