[Shotimes] Global Warming

[Bill Strobel]

The issue isn't whether the planet is changing or not, the issue should be what to do about it.  First off fossil evidence tells me that at one time, in Canada, where there is now ice and snow, there use used to be lush vegetation and the area was inhabited by large cold blooded animals.  Second geological evidence, tells me Pittsburgh PA was once covered by a glacier hundreds of meters thick.  Which earth is the one we should be preserving?  The planet changes, it has done so for millions of years without mans interference what makes anyone think that a few hundred years of mans interference is going to accelerate or slow down what has occurred naturally in the past.  Greenies look out and say the temp is rising, we must be at fault, we must react, when ample evidence shows that at one time Canada was a tropical forest.  Could the planet just be trying to go back to that point and we just happen to be living while it is doing it?  Outlawing planet change will not work, the
 earth can't read.  Instead of wasting time trying to stop the inevitable and figuring out who or who isn't the blame, time and resources would be better spent trying to figure the impact of the change and what benefits and consequences we need to plan for in the future.  The earth will change, man can not stop it.  Better to adapt than die.  The earth has experienced both ice ages and periods of great warmth.  Trying to preserve a  20-40 year climate period (1930-1970) in a planet that has seen vast extremes in its millions of years of existence is ludicrous.
