This is turning into a quite serious debate...Where would I go? (Look at the tag)
Not gonna happen in 2012. But we do have a 1 in 300 chance of getting destroyed by an asteroid in 2880. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/
Agreed, my friend. Looks like we're at a stalemate...I just think this debate is worthless of carrying on.
I believe this debate is over-inflated. I have an moderate view, but global warming does exist. From some of my other posts, the Earth experiences warming and cooling periodically (Ice Ages). Humans probably have an effect that catalyzes the process. Does it cause natural disasters? Maybe. Maybe not. Can it be reversed? We probably don't have the technology to do it, and the Earth is known to follow a cyle of climates. Nevertheless, global warming is occuring and cannot be denied, and we should all be trying to do something about its adverse effects.
Good points once again. Global warming maybe cause all these natural disasters, but they occur when global warming doesn't happen.
Can you prove your logic? You contradicted yourself by saying that the world is "absolutely" heating up. However, I agree with some of your other statements. The Earth has continually gone through periods of warming and cooling (Ice Ages) throughout its histroy. That said, what are you trying to say? That global warming doesn't exist? Didn't you already say yes?
The primary goal of the NPS is not to protect wolves. These monuments serve as national pride and identity. What else would we do with these parks? Turn them into human developments? What would you want the government do with 3 billion when it spends almost a trillion on the military?
3 billion dollars is nothing compared to the 965 billion dollars we spend on our military. We would save about 200 billion dollars if we stopped fighting in Afghanistan. I believe that no one should complain about the funding of the park service (out of all things!) when we're fighting an ridiculous, expensive war. Don't get me wrong, I strongly believe that we should fight to defend our country, but that is for another debate. There are many benefits of having a NPS. In short, think of what would happen if we didn't have one. Would we still have the same amount of protected, open land? Will the currently endangered species still exist? Who would guard these universally-unique, natural treasures? (Yellowstone, Redwood, etc. exist nowhere else.)
I am probably a good person but I haven't taken the time to fill out my profile, so you'll never know! |
