The Way Ahead
by Zengeorge
The Earth's climate has been in a constant state of change since our home planet was formed. Climate change is a never-ending, natural phenomenon. The key question for all intelligent observers today (which unfortunately excludes most of the naive and emotive commentators) is how we, as an increasingly sophisticated and technologically competent species, can manage the natural AND human-caused variations in our global climate to best benefit our species and ensure our long term survival. Aesthetic and prudential grounds are sufficient to drive us in droves towards carbon reducing solar, wind and thermal solution to our growing appitite for energy. When the deserts of our continents are filled with solar collectors and the coasts hum with wind generators, we will be free of our addiction to carbon from the corpses of long dead organisms. Bring it on!
