But it's happening. This is the problem with tribal carnivores such as humans. It's difficult to see past our own existence. We lack the philosophical sophsitication to ever move on from things such the Judeo-Christian ehtic, let alone get over our own selfishness.<br /><br />And you know what? Any media attention to this is good. We're finally looking past ourselves. That's a good thing. You know what? Global heating is a positive feedback system that's going to cause a serious amount of sublte damage. You've got to accept the paradigm shit in science towards holistic systems.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29616976.post-15614383761469972542007-02-02T08:25:00.000+00:002007-02-02T08:25:00.000+00:00Destruction of coastal reefs?

As for Sydney, might that city's problem be about four million people taking outdoor showers, washing cars and in many cases, running swimming pools?<br /><br />No, I don't have my head in the sand, nor do I have it thrust up James Hansen's arse.Neal Asherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13933911904170752700noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29616976.post-77608382624788948352007-02-01T20:26:00.000+00:002007-02-01T20:26:00.000+00:00meanwhile, in other places, because of global warm...meanwhile, in other places, because of global warming there are destruction of coastal reefs endangering the lives of millions who depend upon these fragile systems; water shortages in major cities in the world such as Sydney. <br /><br />But as long as we don't have to wrap up so much, we're fine, eh?
