Greg Craven (that's me!), the creator of "The Most Terrifying Video" never intended to write a book. It just sort of happened. All as a result of the two-year back-and forth I've had with the YouTube community about this video and its follow up marathon "How It All Ends."

So now "What's the Worst That Could Happen? A Rational Response to the Climate Change Debate" is available from Amazon and other sellers through the links at www.gregcraven.org, as well as your local bookstore (I hope!).

Check it out if you're intrigued by the argument in this video.

THE REASON THE COMMENTS ARE CLOSED ON THIS VIDEO is that most of the criticisms of what's presented here have been addressed by the bruisingly thorough 7-hour How It All Ends video project, the discussion is happening over there. I spent months combing through literally tens of thousands of critical comments to find every single objection, criticism, "Yeah but," and "You missed a spot" that I could to this video.

You might find the results interesting, and hopefully, helpful: http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list...

You can post comments there. But to tell the truth, the conversation has moved even farther along, since the criticisms to those videos gave rise to the book, which now has its own discussions going at http://www.manpollo.org/forums/index.php.

Your argument is bias and logically flawed. Global depression would pull all consequences (with possible evnironmental) assigned to square B2. And would only avoid environmental catastrophy assuming that we not only golbal warming is true (and considering we had the coldest decade on record it probably is not) AND that we would do just the right thing to avoid the bad effects, and we aren doing that. So what your B1 sq shoud be a copy of B2, so the only reasonable outcome is A2

Earth has been around billions of years,And has had many changes,The industrial revolution started about 200 years ago,I don,t believe we can do that much damage in that time frame.

Frankly, I don't worry about climate change. As soon as the resources of the planet will become scarcer, human beings will be stupid enough to start killing each other. That's what human beings always did and I am sure they will continue to do so. We are just like animals, because once the food becomes scarce, the animals resort to extreme violence and even canibalism. If we check our history we will have plenty of examples of human stupidity and cruelty.

This is one of the very few videos on youtube in which people with a lack of vocabulary are not present; the people arguing here are doing it in the most respectful way,the world has changed.

As good as two legs to walk. It's a video about legs.

And it's not a syllogism, by the way.

How does any of this exemplify people not believing in natural disasters? I lived thru Sandy and know it well. Well enough to know that we had three such Hurricanes that hit the upper East coast in 1954. HOW do you prevent that? Almost the entire Spanish Armada was lost during one such storm July 29th, 1588? How do we prevent that? And 1588 was at the end of the LIA?? How could we have prevented that?

Your argument is fallacious drivel.

[101orson101]

Frankly? So did I Keith. Just probably not for the same reason. Just about anything can be rationalized. And the use of this model is a prime example. It demonstrates an entire mindset. But fortunately not the only one? The prime error is that it completely ignores what we have already done in a myriad of ways. For instance? While AGW is running rampant in Europe their CO2 has not declined yet here in America it has? WITHOUT the church of latter day AGW worshipers?

[TheNohegemon]

What does the age of the syllogism have to do with anything? Is it a good argument? You said it was.
