Maybe it runs on ethanol.

Which probably takes even more standard petroleum to manufacture.

Not to mention that corn is pretty expensive too.

I like how you keep saying we don't have the technology for this or that, as if it has anything to do with anything.

I like how you completely disregard what I say because if you think about it, I'm right. I'm saying, we only recently had the technology to study the ozone layer, effects of CO₂, etc., so we can't know what will happen in the long run.

Hooray for environmentalists! First they ruin the economy by not letting us drill for more oil, then they make up an "alternative fuel" that isn't even as efficient, much less better; and it's crippling our food supply. How ironic that people worried about global catastrophe would help the world starve.

...I would really rather not talk about this anymore, because this could become a flame war before we know it.

Crippling our food supply?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! Do you know anything at all about corn?
Also, we already know that CO₂ traps heat and doesn't let it leave the atmosphere. So I don't think anyone's really willing to let it accumulate and find out what happens. We already stopped the ozone hole after we quit mass use of CFCs. You have no idea what you're talking about.

Here's my final stance on the whole thing:

Let's all just do what we think is right and wait and see what happens.

Here's my final stance: Global Warming is a hoax, but I don't want to hate anyone on this board over a petty argument.

My final stance is that corn is expensive.

Turtlekid1 keeps saying we don't know anything beyond 50 years back, but we actually have records of atmosphere and climate for about 600,000 years back. You know when scientists drill ice cores in Antarctica? That's what they're looking at. CO<subscript>2</subscript> is currently (since the Industrial Revolution) at the highest concentration of those 600,000 years (interglacial cycle only lasts 200,000 years). Oxygen levels are down. Methane is about three times what it normally used to be.

This topic seems to be getting out of hand.

All I can say about global warming, is that if the Earth does get fried'd, or blow'd up, it won't really matter, because we would all be dead. I don't see how a "Friday the 13th" Thread could have took this kind of direction.

I kind of did, but only because it took me a few seconds to get it.

You know, I decided a while back that I'm going to make a shirt that says "TOLD YOU SO" in massive letters and wear it whenever I'm right. Right now, the only date I've got set to don it is December 21, 2012.

jmdblazer · « **Reply #58 on:** June 19, 2008, 08:45:16 PM »

And why that date?

Chupperson Weird · « **Reply #59 on:** June 20, 2008, 12:14:47 AM »

If you don't know already, don't bother. It doesn't actually matter.
