Global warming vs. terrorism?

Ah. You've got a good point. I guess it goes to show that I am wrapped up in my world and not even aware of anything else.

But still I believe that in the end, global warming will have a greater impact on more people than terrorism does.

Well, the increasing population is not the biggest cause for the Global warming. The many factories and the cars are the bigger problem. Yes, more people- more cars, but people in the Third world countries, were are the most terrorism attacks haven't got any car or many of them don't have!

Yeah, we are all under the same sky..so a lot of people are definintely more affected by global warming.

I agree! Terrorism is also very bad thing, but some day the Global warming will kill so many people, that even all the terrorism attacks couldn't kill till now and will not kill

Yeah, i have heard some places in Denmark are very bad stricken!

I have heard of such areas in the world where there are holes in the ozone layer. Supposedly the air is unbreathable and the ocean life non existent in these areas. If this is so the danger if these phenomena is unimaginable!

Yeah, but I think this warming is not a natural phenomenon! There are many proofs about wholes in the ozone over countries like Denmark, where I think such a whole in the ozone is very dangerous!

And why are you so amazed. no one says that terrorism isn't a big problem, we just say it is not the bigger one!

HI! I think there are not millions of people die from terrorism attacks, and yes, you are right- there are no victims of Global warming, but soon I think there will be many!

Ok. You are right! But as I told, Global warming will not kill many people today or tomorrow, it will take a million victims maybe after 50-60 years, but it surely will if we don't stop it. And when it happens not only people will die, it will die plants, animals many living creatures. And don't say it is only predictions- there are many proofs on TV, in magazines how the Global warming take effects on our planet! the eskimos in Alaska say, their snow gets more and more unstable for building their igloos, there are more and more molten ice-bergs and many ice-bears left without home! Yes, bears are animals, but they are also alive, they also diserve a chance to survive and we take them this chance away, while we build more factories and buy more cars!

So right! but I think these people won't do anything, because they did a lot of good for themselves with it!

Wow ! What an interesting question ! This will probably be a real long post if I don't make an effort to be brief. So I will do my best. Although I believe there is definitely a cycle of global warming happening, I do not necessarily believe that it is all man-made. I believe it is the earth's natural cyclical process, to star with. The increasing population of the earth, and all the forces of that increasing populations consumption will play a part, but in my opinion, are NOT the sole reason to place blame. I think of it as a purging process. Just as our human bodies have a natural way of fighting off disease. The human (or the earth) will do some things to itself that do not really destroy, but change its overall function and appearance naturally. Then there are the factors of outside influence that may be good, or may be bad. The earth will never really end, save for being annihilated by a an asteroid or by the sun eventually gobbling it up in several billion years, and the like. But it may get to the point of not being able to sustain human life as we know it with out artificial means of life support. I don't think we can really stop the natural cycle of global warming, but we may be able to slow it down if we change our overly consuming ways and try to bring down, by appropriate means, the overall population of the earth. As for terrorism, it is a force that will more than likely be influencing world events until there no humans left to dwell on this earth. And I won't get too political in this post. But I think it suffices to say that there ARE terroristic forces out there that, until the world complies with their demands, we will ALL be constant danger. This brings me to the conclusion that, at least at this moment in earth's time, terrorism is the biggest threat.

Wow! A very good response, but I still believe Global warming is the biggest one. Terrorism is a cause of some politicals benefits and I also don't want to go into it! But thanks for the post, it is really good!

yeah totally agree, goverment's tell us what we want to hear then do the opposite. When will everybody in the world sit up and actually reliese this. But thats life I guess.

Yeah, that's life, but we are these ones who make it looks like that. If we all have more courage and more determination, we all can solve this problem together once and for all. But many people are scared to share what they think and they are also scared to say it in front of so many people! Well, maybe one day, we will really realize what is best for us and make this crucial step!

Well, terrorism is also like that! Governments of several countries talk about it and say they take some measures to stop it, but they do exactly the opposite!

Well, the first get it all But you are so right. Government speculate with it, because they have some benefits of it. That's why they don't want to stop terrorism, neither Global warming

I am sorry but since when was tsunami actually related to global warming in the first place? Are you really sure on this one? Contrary to your claims, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions and other underwater explosions (detonations of nuclear devices at sea), landslides, and bolide impacts have the potential to generate a tsunami. The 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami, Asian Tsunami, Indonesian Tsunami, and Boxing Day Tsunami was actually an undersea megathrust earthquake that occurred off the west coast of Sumatra, Indonesia. Please correct me if I am wrong, otherwise, you may want to correct the facts you have at your end. Look, IMO global warming is far from settled and confirmed and I just could not find myself completely sold to it. However, I do support being environmentally friendly and responsible, so as not to deplete or destroy our scarce resources and affect the normal ecological cycle which might bring about dire consequences for us at the end of the day.

HI! As I told, I maybe wrong, but some day it will take so many innocent human lives, that we could not even imagine!

HI! yeah, you are right, terrorism takes many innocent human lives, but Global warming too! What will you say about the tsunami in Indonesia in 2004, that kills over 200 000 people. Do you think it is not a cause of the Global warming! And if it is not, than some they if we don't stop it, it will take not millions, but billions of innocent human lives!

HI! Well, I think the conflict is exactly about man vs. man, because many people take some measures to stop it, but many other( like factory owners) make the opposite, just because they have no benefits to take measures of stopping it!

Yes, you are right. There is no turning back, but there is still time to make some changes, so that the harms can be decreased!

I am doing my bit but is everyone else doing it too?

Yeah, there are measures that can be taken so that the Global warming be reduce, but there are also measures that can be taken so that the terrorism can end. But no one tries and wants to stop them!

yeah, it goes worse with every year. You say the temp. has risen with just only 1 degrees Celsius, but one is just enough to meld all the icebergs on the both poles!

Hi! I think they both can be stopped, but the people who are responsible for it don't do anything! And for the terrorism they not just don't do anything, they don't want to do it, because as I already responded to the other comments, they have some benefits of it and it is much more advantageous for them the terrorism to take more and more victims every day!

yeah, as I told, we all cause the Global warming, and we all must stop it! Many people don't realize how dangerous it is, but I think they will, when it is too late for all of us!
