Wow! And I'm kinda proud that I can break a dog from treeing possums. Well, some dogs sometimes.

25 years ago there were approximately 1 million family automobiles on the road in China...today they have 200 million automobiles on the road and many more Chinese families are hoping to own one someday...

Many car owners do not even think about the heat their vehicles put out when driving because they are riding in the comfort of the air conditioning in the cab...and never once giving a second thought of the heat generated for each gallon of fuel burned or the friction created by the moving parts...I wonder how many automobiles are giving off heat across the globe?


Yes...global warming changed to climate change a few years back...and it is true what Redneck Mafia has said...I have done some reading here and there on the various subjects but they haven’t interested me now or in the past on account much of it is a bunch of smoke screens in the hopes of postponing much needed change that is needed right now...

We have the El Niño and La Niña that like clockwork on a regular basis and others I know nothing about I am sure...
major warming and ice age cycles will come and go and there is nothing we can do about it and maybe in some cases we just might be able...we won’t know until the time comes...these changes may be thousands of years away and or in between...
Lower sperm counts have been in the news...there are reasons and theories but that is small potatoes and is something that can be fixed...very doable if it were a do or die situation...

I worked in a big operating plant with different types of engineers and sometimes there were problems hard to diagnose so having strong troubleshooting skills really came in handy...many times I was able to figure out exactly the problem or create a process of elimination of things to do...or at least develop a theory as to what was wrong and then make plans to repair when feasible...lots of times it was re-arrangement of data on charts, resetting ranges and timeframes...and then the answer was easier to diagnose...

Using that experience I created a chart with the average global temperature plotted on chart and then I added the global population to the same chart and adjusted the ranges and timeframe...so I looked for the obvious and the main thing that made sense to me was right there on the chart...I already believed in my theory but then I backed it up with the chart...no...it is not scientific data nor a scientific theory...it is an observation I strongly believe in...

In my opinion we can forget about historical scientific data about global cycles because we can not do much about them...however, we can take the steps needed to turn what is happening right now...it will be near impossible because of human greed...
It is a slow process but folks are starting to see the truth...

Like Forrest Gump said...that’s all I got to say about that...

Common sense alone dictates that increased population has greatly contributed to global climate change. More automobiles polluting the air, more land cleared for housing and food production are just some examples of mankind contributing to the climate change. Now, does the common man have any real power to change these issues? No, not enough to make a real difference, but we can all do what we can, plant a tree, drive less, etc. These issues are complex indeed, but as we learned for every action there is an equal reaction. Growing populations require more food, shelter, transportation, etc. AND ALL of these things contribute to environmental problems such as pollution, etc., to say that increased population has not had anything to do with climate change or global change is just wrong and does not hold merit.

This I just somthing I have always wondered. We all know if you put to many people in a boat it will sink. Do y’all think that as huge city’s are built that putting all that weight in one spot puts to much pressure on the earths surface ?

Tarbaby, you need to make a chart. How many people can you put in a boat before it sinks?

Now, nobody thinks that you are a big dummy, maybe a midsize dummy at best. Lol. Just kidding, I really think that you have a lot of common sense. Education does not made one smarter , intelligence is not measured by education. Dave
