Im sure there will be many ways to make some moolah off this global warming thing. I wonder if the cavemen took advantage when their climate changed, any ideas?

Im going to try to figure out how high the oceans will raise and buy land where the new coast will be. All that sweet new ocean front property will be mine.

    Uh huh. You all can make money off of global warming trying to come up with better vaccines/cures for new diseases, finding ways to save all the species that will be threatened/dying, hey maybe even marketing boat houses for everyone whos living in an area thats going to soon be underwater!!

    Invest your money buying land in inland deserts? I mean, you can speculate that it'll be the future beach front properties.

    Our species has gone through MANY climate changes a lot more drastic than what we are seeing now. The humans have always advanced as a species throughout them all, you underestimate us.

    Since when did we care about people perishing? Look at Darfur, their is genocide going on and the United Nations still wont recognize it. Also, global climate change is not preventable, its been going on since Day 1 on Earth.

    Marching Since: January 3, 2007
    I'm marching because I know how important it is for all of us to face the reality of global warming. It's real, it's a danger and it threatens the well-being of all of us. I love America but I don't love how wasteful we are. With five percent of the world's population, we consume twenty-five percent of the planet's energy. We need to address global warming in a serious and meaningful way. All of us, not just those of us marching, need to take steps NOW to conserve. We need to think outside the corporate box on this - to solar, wind power, hybrids. We need a major shift in our mindset on what makes up the American dream. It's not two SUV's in every garage, it's creating a good and sustainable life for all of us for generations to come. For me, doing so will start with the very first step I take on this march. This is only the beginning.

    I want to invent an air conditioned jacket that people can wear walking from their air conditioned houses to their air conditioned cars.

    All of them. Everybody dies.
    The only people we should try to get even with...
    ...are those who've helped us.

    Right 'round the corner could be bigger than ourselves.

    No - just the preventable part is made up.

    There’s a lot of talk about a new arctic shipping passage that will eventually open up in (disputed) Canadian water once we can melt all those damn ancient ice flows. We could look into what companies will dominate that route and get in early.
