    What, you don't like westerns? He felt his situation was somewhat hopeless...............Bang!!.....Well, that was one solution.

    If anyone could possibly convince this global humanity that they would have to jeopardize their greed and selfish secular pursuits to do something constructive for all concerned, any available theoretical solutions would matter little.

    You make no sense. You admit that climate changes caused mass extinctions with no human involvement whatsoever. Now you think there's something we can do to arrest these cyclical changes? Humans didn't cause the previous events and humans won't cause the next one.

    Of course not. No one has ever suggested that. That you believe this indicates just how little you've bothered to learn about AGW. Natural cycles work on vast geologic time scales.

    What humans must do is to reduce the amount of our own pollution that is adversely affecting the climate in our time on the planet. And it has been proven that we are definitely affecting our climate with pollution.

    Yet when there were no humans the same thing happened.

    whatever warmed the earth before is so deeply understood by red that he can rule it out.

    Well, no. There was no human caused pollution to accelerate it into a crisis. And most obviously, no humans around to have their lives impacted adversely by it.

    The fact that there are natural cycles has no bearing whatsover on the fact that we have adversely impacted climate during our time.

    Human impact is insignificant relative to climate change. Human impact is significant relative to air and water quality.

    The preponderance of evidence disproves your claim. Doesn't matter though, we can't undo what industrial man has caused,.. it's already too late.
