He also told some magor problems arising due to Global Warming........
1) Serious effect on Natural environment & human life
2) Over Ice melting on Norht & South Poles
3) Sudden changes in Climate
4) decrease in OZONE Layer
5) Increment in Twisters
So Friends what you think about it? Is really WE are creating big problems for ourselves?
Thanks for showing interest.

As George Carlin said-
"We haven't learned how to care for one another, we're gonna save the f--- planet?I'm getting tired of that s--t. Tired of that s--t. I'm tired of f---g Earth Day, I'm tired of these self-righteous environmentalists, these white, bourgeois liberals who think the only thing wrong with this country is there aren't enough bicycle paths. People trying to make the world save for their Volvos. Besides, environmentalists don't give a s--t about the planet. They don't care about the planet. Not in the abstract they don't. Not in the abstract they don't. You know what they're interested in? A clean place to live. Their own habitat. They're worried that some day in the future, they might be personally inconvenienced. Narrow, unenlightened self-interest doesn't impress me."Besides, there is nothing wrong with the planet. Nothing wrong with the planet. The planet is fine. The PEOPLE are --ed. Difference. Difference. The planet is fine. Compared to the people, the planet is doing great. Been here four and a half billion years. Did you ever think about the arithmetic? The planet has been here four and a half billion years. We've been here, what, a hundred thousand? Maybe two hundred thousand? And we've only been engaged in heavy industry for a little over two hundred years. Two hundred years versus four and a half billion. And we have the CONCEIT to think that somehow we're a threat? That somehow we're gonna put in jeopardy this beautiful little blue-green ball that's just a-floatin' around the sun?The planet has been through a lot worse than us. Been through all kinds of things worse than us. Been through earthquakes, volcanoes, plate tectonics, continental drift, solar flares, sun spots, magnetic storms, the magnetic reversal of the poles...hundreds of thousands of years of bombardment by comets and asteroids and meteors, worlwide floods, tidal waves, worldwide fires, erosion, cosmic rays, recurring ice ages...And we think some plastic bags, and some aluminum cans are going to make a difference? The planet...the planet...the planet isn't going anywhere. WE ARE!
In short, the planet isnt in danger. We humans are. Its not "save the planet", but a selfish "save ourselves"

Hey
How you save yourself if earth is not there? Do have any other place in your mind to live? If you have, tell others also, so they also stop their efforts for saving Earth.
