Climate change
Is this still considered important? Or am I living in 2008?
I am the 99%

Re: Climate change
I thought this was all extremely urgent and we had to act now.
Yet in 2011, it seems to be yesterday's news.
Why is this?

Re: Climate change
Because it was overhyped and based on mixed science. Scientists seem to agree that 98% of temperature changes are natural and man-made effects account for 2%.
Notice how the calamity is now called Climate Change and not the previous Global Warming??!!
The Kyoyo agreement aims to reduce the average temperature of the globe by about 0.8 degC. They have until 2100 to do it.
I'm not losing any sleep over it.

I'm sure some of the lentil-munchers protesting outside Westminster Abbey are. :)

Not trying to be contentious or anything - but, fucking wake up!

Re: Climate change
I don't think anyone is debating the trend of the last 150-200 years. The planet does this. Always has.

Re: Climate change
Not debating whether it's real or not.
Debating whether anyone cares and, if not, what has changed since a few years ago when it was THE big issue.
I hope it hasn't just fallen out of fashion with the 99%.
