I am sorry, but who the fuck doesnt know about global warming? and his comment 'it's a tragedy you can swim in the north pole' blah blah, it's fucking summer (ish, but you know what I mean) |

I thought the ice at the Nroth pole always melted in Summer, even before global warming ? |

Should this not be in the random thread, or even the grumpy young men thread that the mod started himself? If a n00b had posted this they would have probably been banned. No offence to mw, I know he's a sound - he helped the Ethiopians or sommat. |

Back to topic. You thought a global event like Live Earth was enough to raise awareness. You think AlGore would try pulling this stunt? |
| media__whore |

global warming through humanity is all BS anyway. edit: is humanity the word I want to use there? |

Yeah but you need something to trigger the sense of these fickle earthlings for things to happen. Most people know about global warming but you need mass media to say it's bad for people to know it's bad. Still was good to see some of my fav bands play live. |

Most people know about global warming but do most people know Al Gore might stand for President in 2008? (yes cynic) |

thing is people always say the weather is not right etc....but you can always compare it to a previous year when it has been worse. thats why im not sure I buy it. |
