George Carlin was right
The world will shake us off like a bad cold when we're gone.

He was right about ALOT of things...
Funny thing is: the so called "save the Earth" people don't care about the Earth as much as they care about the Earth's ability to support human life. Last edited by Particle Man; 09-12-2010 at 09:16 PM.. |

Yes, what we do to the Earth doesn't matter. After all, it only affects us in the present. Mother Nature will fix the damage in a few hundred or thousand years, so that makes it OK. Who cares if what we do hurts other people in the here and now.

The issue isn't "saving the earth"
The issue is how to feed a growing human population. |

that last picture looks like Rama...
The article is ridiculous. Of course the earth will heal itself of all the damage we do, when we are gone. The point of all the conservation efforts is to prevent mass suicide by high horsed stupidity, and taking out thousands upon thousands of species and ecosystems with us.
