  • by going under water, you are using so many resorces. using a petrol driven boat to get there, then the making of the underwater costumes and 02 cylinders.

  • It will be just like that in FN, Netherlands in 10 years:DDD

  • @pauleb as i said to TheMattmoo47, they are making a statement about global warming, not necessarily trying to prevent it by going underwater. they are simply trying to turn peoples attention to the fact that the island they live on may soon be underwater, thereby destroying the lives of everyone who lives there. and by the way, your sarcastic comments on a youtube page aren't helping either.

  • @bankaikun94 true that there is global warming that occurs naturally, however this time around it is worse than any time before, and is happening earlier than it should be. therefore it is an actual, and man-made, issue. and it's nothing to laugh about either.

  • @TheMattmoo47 well, the point was to make a statement about global warming, saying that due to the ice caps melting and water levels rising, the islands these people live on will be underwater if nothing is done.

  • @ringoz1 not only in England obviously, seeing as these people are from the Maldive Islands.

  • @TheMattmoo47 I think the idea is to make an effective statement which results in a larger positive effect. However, i agree that it could probably have been done better. Also, i don't know how much you know about it, but i personally don't know that it wasn't done with, for instance, a sailing boat and in other ecologically sound ways. I don't think, though i can't swear to it, that diving equipment is more harmful than conventional clothing.

  • End of civilisation and mankind as we know it.....

    No more wars, no more destroying the environment, killing elephants, dolphins, pollution, no more corruption, drugs and crime.

    Mankind has been a bad invention of mother nature which will is correcting its mistake.

  • Parliament means The supreme governing body in England with the power to raise taxes and adopt laws

  • lol global warming is a natural cycle that occurs to earth.
