Global Warming
If global warming is really happening, then why are we wasting our valuable time and resources making and enforcing stupid laws that have no more effect than putting a Band-aid on a cancerous growth?
Are we so arrogant as humans that we believe that we really can have control over everything by putting enough time and resources into it? I don’t believe that even if every person in this world believed in global warming and was motivated enough to put all their effort and intelligence into trying to stop it from happening that we would be successful. Some things can’t be stopped!
If global warming is really taking place then wouldn’t our time and resources be better used in something we do have control over- Adapting to the inevitable changes. Instead of listening to the hype and propaganda that a few rich and powerful people and companies throw our way in order to line their own pockets, we need to fight against those stupid laws that are meant to stop or slow down global warming. They take away and tie up our valuable time and resources.
I believe as a people we are very capable of adapting given enough information and time. If you really believe in global warming then lets start looking for real solutions. Lets put our focus on predicting, strengthening and fortifying, maybe evacuations, and discovering and taking actions on those necessary things we need to do to adapt.
Here is a beginning:

Lets get real people! Instead of making laws that tell us we have to go put our finger in the crack in the dam that make it impossible to use our valuable time and resources in the more effective way of running to warn and evacuate the people and get our self out of danger, lets focus on adapting!

I once saw a video that had a very smart idea on how to deal with global warming, he generally split it up into boxes, two giving an idea of what the damage and financial consequences would be if there was an investment in global warming in a situation where there was and a situation where there wasn’t an actual problem)
And the second box was the same, only no investment.
And even though they were 4 possible scenarion.
No investment + global warming showed a gigantic amount of damage to the planet, to the people, to everything and a huge investment needed at some point to try and fix it.
No investment - global warming showed that not much would change, this is the neutral approach, but in this case a very dangerous one. Neutral can be bad seeing that there is no con to the investments.
Investment + global warming is a prevention or atleast a damage reduction of global warming, which is of course a good thing.
investment - global warming is still a good investment, the new technologies that came from it would not go to waste and could still be used to form a cleaner world environment.
Of course that guy explained it all a lot better then I did :P, but yeah, I’ll see if I can find that video ^^.
