You think we will be eventually able to save the planet?

I'm talking about not using up resources, causing pollution, etc. You think we will be eventually able to save the planet? Someone long time ago said that all of us want our big screen TVs, for example, so that resources will be used to create those TVs, so judging by his stating this, he believed no. So, OT, what do you think?

And sorry about wording it a little weird.

I'd guess a mass extinction would be the only way to slowly revive the planet, unless we can somehow eradicate all the "bad gas," or move it somewhere else lol.

Probably not, but hey, we had a good run. :) megagene

That would assume the planet is dying.

I think so, look around you. The current non-sustainable system with it's horrible inefficiencies are beginning to collapse. I have faith in humanity, the cold hard finger of reality is prepping itself and is headed straight for our warm winkywoos.

The planet isn't going anywhere.....we are

I didn't know the planet needed to be saved.

What are we saving the planet from exactly?

Nothing is a resource until you can actually use it. Gasoline was a waste product before it could be harnessed to power machines. We don't have unlimited resources in terms of what we use now, but we have no idea what could becomne a resource in the future

If the world is going to be destroyed, we probably will not be able to stop it.

George Carlin was a f ucking genius

Maybe if we combine our powers,

EARTH!

No because capitalism is a Diseaseof unlimited consumption forever

I dont think that Carlin wouldnt mind the depletion of fossil fuels and the constant pollution of our biosphere.........that video is always used to misrepresent himBossPerson

How so?

That may be a problem for PEOPLE (as he pointed out, quite superbly) but not for the planet. Earth isn't going to go anywhere, at least not by our hands.

edit: Oh, I see you deleted your post Boss. Why?

[QUOTE="markop2003"][QUOTE="BossPerson"]im sure that will be a pleasant experience.....BossPerson

I don't think we have the means to destroy the plant. However, if we continue the way we are, then we will be the ones to drive ourselves away from it.

humans need to consume resources to survive.comp_atkins

/sigh no one picked up my Captain Planet reference. It was a throwback to old school GS. We used to do this all the time back in 06...until people got banned for it lol.

nope

I think that time is much further than we seem to think.

No, we'll blow ourselves up first. We're already f*cking the planet up now.

Humanity is in far greater danger than Earth, and the laws of physics pretty much make us helpless to defend ourselves from that danger.
