It's a very sad day on earth when people actually insult this message.

Here is a video of a girl pouring her heart out into an empathetically compelling speech, yet with comments seeming largely an amalgam of angry bickering and childishly vindictive arguments. Way to go, world!

@loveyourworld91 I think you read 1/150 as 150/1...

[loveyourworld91]

@bvssvni That's a LOAD of crap. No scientist is going to agree with you. The 1% of scientists who do not "believe" in anthropogenic climate change still agree that the earth is warming, they are just not sure of the causes. Did you know that there's about the same amount of science skeptics who question whether gravity exists? So saying that you do not "believe" in anthropogenic climate change is like saying you don't "believe" in gravity. Kind of ridiculous, don't you think?

[loveyourworld91]

You guys who think that we aren't capable of ruining the world in the time since the industrial revolution, think again. Our planet survives on a delicate balance. It's not only that we are capable of it, we are currently doing it. I know that science (and climate science especially) is difficult for the general public to understand, but this is not something that is up for debate. Stop being ignorant. Learn the facts. And if you do, it will be IMPOSSIBLE to deny the truth.

I 100% totally agree with what this girl says, fuck the government :) our worlds fucked.

The world is a cycle. Things die. Things evolve. Things change. Stop acting like within 150 years we have damaged something beyond repair. The earth has been around longer than we could possibly destroy. Dinosaurs died before man. Volcanoes are way more destructive than man has ever been. But meh, who cares about facts right? Can't save the world, save those that you can.

@Jonathanizer I apologize, I misread the original message. That was my fault.

[wolfdad008]

@iBlowJustinBeiber Wake up and stop being a spoiled brat. Do something for anyone besides yourself. Just once please watch your profanity and inappropriate slurs. Thank you.

No, I don't forget that 1% of our DNA is a lot of genes, but do you know how many m³ of gas 1% of our atmosphere is? Ginormous. And thats all I'm saying, 1% means a different number in a different context.

And therefore, if climate scientest warning us about some dangerous developements, people cannot dismiss that warning just by saying "meh, thats only 1%".
