China is already the #1 consumer of fossil fuels.

1. China
2. US
3. Russia
4. India

We can argue the point of global warming as a reality or non reality. We can argue for the continuation of burning fossil fuels versus trying to design and perfect methods of getting off the oil addiction. We can even waste our time calling each other dirty hippy commi atheist idiot liberals versus...

You liberals suck at arguing a point. You, Eurus, suck at using your brains. It's called "logic". Quits? I can keep handing you liberals your asses all day long. Let's keep it going. It bothers you how I so perfectly pointed out your "logic" that contradicts itself. Here it is again for those who d...

E EDIT: I am actually producing energy, with those solar panels on my roof. Not much, 10kW, but some :D This just proves my point people like you buy plenty of snake oil. What a joke statement to make. Your solar panels won't pay for themselves for 15-20 years and that's assuming so many variable f...

...BLA... EDIT: It's truly retarded to say it's retarded to burn fossil fuels then be a hypocrite by consuming goods produced by the burning of fossil fuels. See here: neither you nor me are running a power plant. We are consumers. I am sure I have the same carbon footprint as you. But: you are PRO...

Yes, let's put aside the climate stuff for a second... What you're saying is, you'd rather be beholden to petrochemical companies and whatever government or private company supplies your power--and whoever supplies them with each fossil fuel...rather than be self-sufficient? I thought more governme...

Eurus, burn those daily 15kg of carbon or petrol in your living room, and then tell me why this is better than having a solar panel on the roof. That simple. Huh? Are you even talking about the same topic here? The topic isn't if burning petrol is bad for the environment but that ignorant people li...

I'm not sure..... You should have just ended it with, "I'm not sure." FTFY So what you're saying is all the other data that covers eons of time base, from such sources as ice core samples, doesn't count? And that any increase in global temperature above average since the industrial age began is unc...

So in man-kind's deep and experienced history of weather record keeping for the past 136 years you're going to point to an ignorant statement like "the planet is warming at a pace not experienced within the past 1,000 years" as PROOF? Do you even have any idea how old the planet is? 1,000 years out...
