There's a lot of debate. Is it happening? Are we the cause?
Always the rebel, I like to fuck with partisanship. So I'm going to take this stance:
Who actually gives a fuck?
It's
a given that we need to pollute less. Global warming is the LEAST
harmful effect of human pollution (assuming it's a factor, I don't care
if it is or not) so this argument is purely academic. There's no arguing
we're the cause of the jet fuel in the tap water.
If
the pollution is eliminated, then it can no longer be argued that
humans are a factor in whatever happens, and the result will be the
natural cycles of the earth, which haven't ended life as we know it yet,
so we'll be fine.
If
we don't get our act together, we're the ones who suffer. Life on earth
will go on, and in fact will be improved because mass extinctions are
evolutionary gold. The best species survive, so when a lot of them die,
the net value of the survivors is greater.
We might go extinct, but no one else will notice. I'm okay with that.
