Global warming is an issue we all need to be concern and be aware about, but in my community the politicians have taken it a step further, they are trying to blame almost every thing now on global warming

In a case of poor urban planning, without addressing this issue which is really causing the destruction here, the politicians are simply saying Oh! Its global warming and nothing much we could do, but we are doing what we can,

So they take in millions in public funding (through private contracts) to what they perceive as solutions, which in reality worsens the condition, thus guaranteeing the need for continues application of those solutions ***$$$$$***

All the while the environment and the people continue to suffer

People around the world need to be aware of these types of behavior, which can really damage and undermine the real efforts to find real solution to global climate change issue

I guess it also goes to show even behind the face of the good message; the wickedness and the stupidity of the humankind still lurks around, capable of causing serious destruction

  • Ok, I see. If we just stop driving cars, flying airplanes, using spray cans, and burning coal the Earth's sea levels will just remain right where they are? You should look into the lake shore property of Chicago. They've been dealing with this for decades (and there's truly no solution since Lake Michigan is simply expanding). Seriously, what are we supposed to do?

  • Dude you really have to see the presentation again, It says nothing about not driving cars, flying planes or burning coal, here in Sri Lanka it's a case of 'erosion', due to poor urban planing (not having drainage) but as the rising sea-levels are a global issue people assume it must be the same here, but the images of the beach shows you it's a clear case of erosion (water coming from inland)

    dude, think befor you leap

    it applies to all

  • An excellent video-I will also make an effort to spread the word.

  • Thank you so much, greatly appreciated :)

  • The world's media in the last 2wks have dropped the 'Global Warming' tag, changing it to 'Climate Change', just to be neutral, as at same time scientists announced 'opps' we are heading to Global Cooling!

    So as UN is already on a 'human hurts environment' warpath, they'll stick with a climate theme.

    Climate has for millions of years and will forever be 'changing'.

    Aware island nations have rising water threat - Maldives, Naru, Tonga .. some are relocating population if retainer walls fail.

  • Done !!! :)

    Thanks

see all

  • Well you know what's wrong with the world today

    People done gone and put their Bibles away

    There livin' by law of the jungle not the law of the land

    Well the good book says it, so I know it's the truth

    An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth

    You'd better watch where you go

    And remember where you've been

    That's the way I see it I'm a simple man

  • With a hole in the ozone the size of North America, that might change your calculations.

    Methane ,one of the worst, obviously millions of tons of carbon (stored energy from the sun)

    released yearly wouldnt harm anything..your merit as a scientist is not exeptible.All these factors stopped today will not change this for many years, the sooner we stop,the sooner we moderate.Oh yeah,the"sun"the most dependable source of energy we have,hey,lets use it,been use for missle bases for years.

    Jump!

  • 1st i see that this wasnt rated 5*'s,why?

    That this consistant missuse of energy,in all different forms has some mouth pieces defending their money.The world mind,99.9% knows this has to stop,already the devastating effects will continue,far past the time of our correcting these mistakes.

    It must be a world effort our use of energy

    transfured into one that will feed us not flood us!The elite who are curseing their future generations also must create and bring fourth the 3rd wave to reality...

  • Whoever propose green energy as the solution to global warming is a fool. 80% of global warming is due to raising live-stocks for food.

  • Yeah, I see it now. Their blaming "global warming" instead of their own incompetence. I guess it's hard to find a video out there today that doesn't blame global warming for everything under the sun.

  • super video

    Best wishes from a country below sealevel

  • In my opinion to act on something globaly without firm evidence is simply a mistake. I personally build CO2 measuring instruments for around the world, And I can tell you the evidence is not in yet. Thus we shouldn't jump to action. Please remember the long term natural cycles of the sun. We seem to forget that big ball of energy that is the main contributer to life or death.

  • You seem like a very nice person but you need more insight. just because lots of people say something doesn't mean it's true.

    the sea levels will rise, they are currently unnaturally low, they will rise another 6 inches at most (in general, not specific to one area) and then will be natural. don't worry about the environment because goats belching and cows farting (i'm serious) each have more of an effect on the environment than every harmful thing humans do.
