There's a big ol' hole in the ozone layer. Ice is melting in places that have had ice for 10s of thousands of years. Glaciers are shrinking.
Arctic wildlife is vanishing.

Call it global warming, natural selection, bad luck or whatever.

It's all happening; it's all real and it needs to be stopped.

And unless someone can prove that all the pollution we've been pouring into the earth and the air and the water ISN'T the cause and that all the chemicals are really GOOD for us, then shut the fuck up and fix it!

I think the hole has closed up, hasn't it?
The ice has been melting for 12k years, since the last ice age.
When the Arctic becomes temperate, it'll have tons of wildlife, just different kinds.
Yeah, we gotta stop adding chemical compounds into the environment, something like 60k, that nature never intended to exist.

On the bright side, if the ocean comes up, all those assholes you bitch about in Jersey, will drown.

I may just use that line for this years' Christmas Cards.

With my blessing.

Yes. The actual cause of the demise of the Dinosaurs was their incessant farting, much like the cows today.

If the scientists were so damn sure, what was the "global cooling" scare 30 years ago all about?

I guess that makes you a member of the Flatulent Earth Society.
