I'm at a loss as to where the volcanic eruptions have anything to do with the carbon footprint of humanity. Just because a volcano erupts and dispenses large amounts of volcanic ash, gasses and debris, does not discount what people are trying to accomplish. Yes, there are things that are outside of our control that do affect the environment, but does that give us any right to make things worse? The goal is to lessen our impact on the world. Also, keep in mind that a lot of the rationale behind driving hybrid cars and conserving energy has to do with the depleting natural resources, not the emissions.
look out hes using logic
run dafish run
 
I wholeheartedly agree with the threadstarter, the carbon fanatics are peeing in the wind while real environmental danger was occurring 5000 feet under their noses. Think about it, if one tenth of one percent of the global warming effort was put to bear on finding actual and real threats to our environment, maybe someone would have noticed that its unsafe to pop pressurized oil wells at a depth deeper than our equipment can properly function. But no, we were busy chasing our carbon tails like headless chickens...

Burning oil is the base for what much of the human output is. Not so sure the "global warming effort" was in favor of drilling for more oil...

No but they ignored the biggest actual danger, which is an oil spill at 5000 feet below sea level.

Who are you referring to when you say "they"? People who believe in global climate change? Al Gore and his bunch have been lobbying against offshore drilling for the last couple of years. GreenPeace has been exposing the dirty side of offshore drilling for the last couple of years. The only ones who support deep sea offshore drilling are those who plan to profit from it.
 
you all make valid points...

but i like fast cars and the hybrid is not one of them

i apologize for my contribution
 
Global warming? How in the HELL can you speak of such a frivolous claim while there are people dying around the world due to lack of toilet paper?
