But if tomorrow's record high was 100 degrees in 1997 (which it was, cause I saw it on the news before), and it's only gonna be 80 tomorrow, then this is NORMAL FLUCTUATION, nothing to be concerned about.

i am by no means saying that humans do not have an impact on the enviroment, i know the opposite is very true. i just personally believe that the places people are looking to "save the world" are completely skewed thanks t a lot of well thought out sales pitches and scare tactics.
we knock down trees because you jsut can't survivie if is it a 9 mile drive to walmart instead of only 4, or because the neighborhood that could use a little paint and a lawn mower isn't as good as the brand new one with the half sized lots.
most of the "alternative" fuel sources are also crap. anyone who is in love with E85 and all the other bio fuel mess, i have one question. once all the farms either close or convert to soy so you can feel better about putting gas in your hummer, where are you gonna get your eggs and milk? i guess no one was watching while the price of those items doubled over the last 5 years.
the answer to healthier enviroment is simple, plant some trees, allow controlled hunts to keep animal populations in line with available food supplies, and buy items that last longer or is recycleable so that less crap has to be put into land fills.
the planet has been around and balancing itself for a long time, there is no need to save it from our pathetic existance. it woudl jsut be nice if we coudl save ourselves from our pathetic existance with jsut a few minutes a day of actual thought
