"save the planet" rubbish , save the human race more like, the planet will be still here long after us..
Answers:
What happens to the planet eventually happens to us, if pollution, global warming, and chemicals in the water table are any indication..
The save the planet rubbish was designed to keep the black man down
The PLANET is what sustains us you ninny minded gimp.
now that's what I'm talking about, spread the word.
Good point. Well spotted.
It's also like "saving lives", you can't save a life, just extend it.
Idiot.
yeah I know right what is up with that. It's ok to take care of the earth we live in and everything but some people just take it to extreme.
yes i agree, but not just humans - other life too! the planet will still be here long after us, but it's conditions will have changed to make life NOT habitable to life at all! basically, the one thing that will cause destruction of all life (plants, animals, humans, everything!) is the climate change of the earth, and the climate change is caused by human actions (fossil fuel burning, greenhouse gas emissions, etc). so it really should be more like "stop climate change, save life".
Hi. There are some who think the human race is a temporary blemish on the Earth's surface. I can offer no strong argument that they are wrong.
it will be here after 'our' generation, and a few to come but unfortunately it is eminent that the destruction is taking place. We have massive global warming that is deteriorating the earth from the shell down to the core. There are several options that we as the human race can take to revert any further damage but we have so much chaos and restrictions and inhibitions as humans that we can't work together to obtain them. The foremost problem is within political pockets. United we do not stand on many issues of importance. so your statement in my opinion is correct, all we care for at the moment is the human race, to our own detriment it will be our future generations mistakes to clean up, if they can at that point form a unified effort!
the human race is killin its self the planet cant, i smoke, drink, ingest allsorts of drugs no git killin me but me!!!
yes, but we will need a new place to live, won't we
no planet.no you
yo man if the planet dies out so do we.you clown
What's your question?
yes, but, we inhabit the planet. 'save the planet' is a figure of speech
i reckon a lot of folk didn't read the question. Yes, absolutely true. Saving the human race requires saving the planet's biosphere in something like its present condition. But you knew that.
Ja, but i can tell you truth, we're gona end up in a bad bad place and then it won't be rubbish. we pretty much screwed ourselves if ya ask me, sideways longways and all otherways.
Good point. It's shorthand for "Save the planet in a state that we can survive on"
Your statement might be true, but, within our current rules of evolution, you will live, on average, 70 to 90 years (more if lucky!) - you won't be here to witness the demise of this planet.
Now - do you have a question?
Yes, very true.
It's a bit of a dilemma for all the "greens" isn't it?
The climate of planet Earth has changed constantly throughout its history. *But*, now that it's changing in a way that the "greens" don't like, they want to stop it, because it's not very convenient for them.
Oh yes, very "green"!
People want to save to planet to save themselves because if we didnt have plants/animals/trees, we would either be taken down by animals, or we would have many troubles breathing because, I don't know if you know this, but trees provide oxygen, and we need that to breath. (In the same sense, trees need us because we provide them with carbon)
t think the people that say that mean save the humans on the planet.
And by the way the people that say that are COMPLETELY wrong, they failed science but absorb trash easy - pretty mindless- not thinking humans.
Exactly right. Which is also why it's insane to try to "save" various animal species that are clearly doing badly under natural selection, and need to die out to keep the natural order of things going.
The planet gets hotter, the planet gets cooler, it's happened forever. In the 1970's a lot of people thought the world was going to get too cold to live on: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/global_cool. . As the dominant species it's up to us to make things as comfortable for ourselves as possible, but if that means all driving Priuses or taking the bus for supposed uncertain benefits to our distant decendents, then bugger it, I say.
An environmentalist is a person who looks at any new piece of data and thinks, "how can I use this to make somebody feel guilty?"
Energy can be neither created nor destroyed it can only be turned into one form or another, all the carbon which the dinosuars ate in the form of food/plants were massive, for a reason and that was to break down the high amounts of carbon dioxide in the atmoshere. We are simply putting the carbon dioxide back into the atmoshere, every litre, cubic metre, gallon or tonne of hydrocarbon ends up in the atmosphere. We are putting the earth back to the time where giants ruled, plants and animals lets hope we can live with them
True, the planet will be here long after us, but at the rate we are going it will become uninhabitable. To save "us" you have to save the planet, the planet is what sustains our life, if you pollute all the water what will we drink? If you pollute all the air, how will we breathe without developing respiratory problems? If you cut down all the rain forests how will you prevent deserts from creeping across the globe preventing farming which is needed to sustain our growing population. If we keep fuelling global warming where will we live when our towns are flooded? It is very narrow minded to think that we are more important that the Earth - ecologially speaking the industrial revolution is one of the worst things that happened to it..
