“ENFORCED POPULATION CONTROL”,would never work nor will throwing concerts to increase our awareness of our mind boggling energy consumption. The scientist say the effects are accumulative but they keep getting surprised. The world will correct itself eventually in mean time seek high ground people.

How AlGorian. The only thing missing from this piece is Lindsey Lohan being arrested again for DUI. I can’t wait to hear her attorney use “global warming” as her defense and have Al Gore testify on her behalf. Now that will be must see Court TV.

“Drastic steps are necessary by all nations to institute enforced population control.”
We won’t have to lift a finger to institute population control, nature will take care of that for us.

If this article , when it states “Global warming critics” are saying those that criticize the theory of a global warming are alarmed. sooner or later they will have to accept the Global Warming theory as fact.
Global warming, it has been said, will cause extreme variation in the weather patterns we have seen before.
Global warming is a direct result of energy consumption and population growth driving the demand for that consumption.
Where I see approaching disaster for the Human Race, all the corporations see sales oportunities. The corporatins control the Governmants of the world, thus nothing will be done to slow down the growth.
Those who have accepted this theory as valid aren’t in the least surprised.
This planet passed the optimum number of sustainable humans around 1950 which was 2.5 billion persons.
The world population predicters state that in the next 43 years (2050) will see an increase to 9.5 billion. an increase from today, greater than the population of the planet in 1950.
If this is allowed to happen we are on the last part of our journey to oblivion.
Drastic steps are necessary by all nations to institute enforced population control.
It may already be too late.
