With every day pass, our country is getting into more and more trouble. The inflation, unemployment and falling value of dollar are the main concern for our Government but authorities are just sleeping, they don’t want to face the fact. Media is also involve in it, they are force to stop showing the real economic situation to the people. I start getting more concern about my future as well as my family after watching the response of our Government for the people that affected by hurricane Katrina.
According to recent studies made by World Bank, the coming crisis will be far worse than initially predicted. So if you're already preparing for the crisis (or haven't started yet) make sure you watch this video at http://www.familysurvival.tv/ and discover the 4 BIG issues you'll have to deal with when the crisis hits, and how to solve them fast (before the disaster strikes your town!) without spending $1,000s on overrated items and useless survival books.

Well for one, back about 30 years ago everyone was concerned about global cooling- now it's global warming.
Also by the fact that the earth does have natural global warming and global cooling cycles. 300 years ago there was a little ice age.
around 1000 years ago the earth was alot warmer
remember when those scientists found that fossil of lucy down like 100 feet below the waterline...that means that at one time the ocean was lower than it is currently.
Many will claim that our climate is regulated by the sun and other factors that doesn't include humans.
Also you shouldn't be too worried about CO2, why won't the government do anything about cattle. They are one of the largest producers of green house gases-many whom are worse than CO2..... such as nitrous oxide and methane.

Well, i also believe that the world is coming to an end. It does say it in the bible. I mean look at everything around us. Everything is always happening everyday. It's a great awaken upper. I mean it's so disturbing to see all the chaos in this world. I think we all can do something to change this. But then on the other hand, it could also be too late. I would like our global warming to change. I just wish everyone else would be on the same page.

I asked a similar question that is what are you doing to stop global warming? I got many answers, but the most important is that you start burning less fuel now. One gentleman planted 986 trees. I personally started taking twice as long to get to work by taking an electric train half way to work, and bicycling the last 11 miles.
Cuts over 40% will take new technology and time. The great news is that models show that a cut of about 20% world wide over the next 10 years could give us the time we need to bring the new technologies online.

We don't. A little global warming would actually be a good thing. Listen Chicken Little, the sky is not falling. Even if man has played a part in bringing about global warming, it isn't going to kill you. Why is that so hard to grasp by so many? Humans are the only creatures on this earth that can be found living in almost all types of climate, without having evolved physically to be able to do so. The number one thing we do best is adapt. A little climate change isn't going to harm us. We will adapt. We have been doing it since our species first evolved, thousands and thousands of years ago.

Well, in America, the big risk within your lifetime may be widespread drought that cuts food production to critical levels.
Having the sea levels rise would be inconvenient, but not catastrophic. We should have to move.
We can know that we have set this spate of global warming in motion. And at the same time we can not know that undoing what we have done will stop this global warming. It is important to understand this, because it is key to understanding that if we wait too long, we may well have waited too long to stop it.
If we fail to recognize that time significance, we remove any sense of urgency. And yet within this awareness comes a feeling of helplessness if we have waited too long.
The most important thing we should plan and do, is not an individual action, but it is intended to deal with a consequence of global warming, major pervasive, widespread drought.
Deal with that drought by storing vast quantities of water... not water to deal with cities needs, but enough also to irrigate our croplands, our forests, even our deserts.
Now this sounds like a measure should we fail to stop GW. It is. But it has even more to do with stopping the growth of CO2 in the atmosphere.
Only consuming the CO2 in the atmosphere is needed to complete the strategy of cutting emissions.
Irrigation is needed so that plants can consume the CO2.

well- a lot of people don't believe things until they happen to them- global warming seems like a sign from our creator we aren't living the right way- we have too many materials- tvs, cars, phones, airplanes, gadgets, houses, etc- the native americans never had to worry about global warming- a lot of these problems we face today are apart of the edomites- esau- the europeans coming to america to destroy the beauty of the lands- the only way it will stop is when yahweh comes back to earth to save his chosen people!

I read some of the previous answers, saying that there is nothing to be worried about, and that this warming trend is entirely normal.
It is this mindset that is partly the reason why we are in the state we are in. The not wanting to do anything and the not wanting to accept that we are in danger.
Ignorance is bliss. But we can't all be ignorant.

well according to Al Gore,
we kill ourselfs. every single one of us.
stop beliveing in this crap. if the world didnt, change, we wouldnt be here.
think of it like this,
if we stayed babies forever and never grew old, we would be sitting around pooping our pants and nothing would ever happen. we would die rite where we started, and we would die fast.
if the world didnt change, there would be no animals, no people, and plants wouldnt grow back once they died.
if u are agreeing with me, go to my website, www.ithappensgetoverit.webs.com
