 You
are riding on a cosmic version of the
Titanic.
Burning
Coal to produce electric power is a pact with
the Devil.
²
Global
Warming has reached the crisis
stage. Unless,
within the next five years, we begin a major, global-level effort to turn
the doomsday machine back off,² this self-expanding cycle
will become
un-stoppable, and it will produce devastating, deadly, and irreversible
consequences that will drastically reduce the human population.
Unless
you, yes you, participate with us in making
and insisting upon major changes, your
grandchildren will experience untold grief and
misery and pre-mature
deaths.
Dozens
of present, human practices, if
continued, will, all by themselves, produce
disasters at levels the humanity
has never seen. Here are a few of
the obvious trends:
 Deforestation,
Burning coal for electric
power
Excessive population
growth
Water
pollution
Air pollution
Top soil destruction and
erosion
Destroying priceless, irreplaceable
ecosystems to make money
Dumping billions of tons of CO2
into the Earth's atmosphere
Ignoring problems until they
reach the crisis stage
Ignoring more
than a dozen, very serious problems.
These
activities are producing unprecedented
problems.
Sea level rise is already
destroying thousands of coastal wetlands and
making millions of acres of coastal farmlands
unusable.
Mountain glaciers are melting
away, thus, destroying the dry-season water
supply for about one third of the human
population.
The present rate of species
extinction exceeds that which occurred when
the dinosaurs became extinct.
.
.
And these are just the most obvious problems
.
Here's One More Ignored Truth:
Global
Dimming (putting dirt and
dust into the atmosphere) has reduced the
Earth's temperature by two
degrees.
Releasing
CO2 into the atmosphere has caused the Earth's
temperature to rise by three
degrees.
Each problem is
sever and in the long term devastating and
deadly. At the moment each is
canceling the temperature-change-effect of the
other.
