Climate Change (oh no not again)

The world is constantly changing, usually at such a slow pace that we do not really notice it. The population explosion that we are going through is probably the biggest factor in these changes, but when countries, such as China try and limit the birth rate exery gets up in arms over freedom of choice. Too many people are having children which they either can not or do not care for sufficiently. In this country too many people see it as a way of being kept by the goverment and avoid work by continuing to breed. In other counrties it is just a way of life, contraception either being unknown or unavailable. We are overpopulating the world and that is probably our biggest crime. I feel that if we do not do something about it nature will take over and cure the problem for us. World famine, superbugs, incurable diseases or a return of the dinosaures. Who knows but eventually something has to give. Maybe one of the intelligent people will find an answer, before it finds us.

Yep. It appears some people want to single handedly "multiply and fill the earth!" Population growth could be the cause of the further enlargement of the Sahara Desert. People are cutting up trees and I'm glad to hear that people around that area are embarking on a tree planting scheme.

Human beings have played a part either in starting it it or accellarating it.

Lovemore Nanjaya.

Lusaka every thing plays a part but if you mean that we are to blame then I think you would find that very difficult to prove :)

teddy you are 100% correct re over population, perhaps Iran will provoke the Israelis into WW3 that should sort things out ;)

I couldn't possibly comment ;) but you must admit Iran is playing a dangerous game, just depends how much the Israelis are prepared to put up with,

Hmmm, indeed. The Israelis (while I perfectly understand their situation) have not been model world citizens in the last 40 years ... especially if you happen to be Palestinian.

Has any Country been a model of goodness, the job of the Israeli government now is to protect its citizens, if provoked it will retaliate and who can argue with that.

OK, I should have said major Countries, we (NZ) really do not have any impact at all in the world in that sense, we don't even have a workable air force any more

You do have impact - the world certainly took notice when you told the Yanks to NOT bring their nuclear powered warships into Auckland Harbour, and, the Japs will know better when dealing with Greenpeace! LOL

David,
Greenpeace is a pussy cat, Paul Watson speaks the only language the Japs understand.
It was David Lange that gave it to the Americans he was a good guy but buckled in to Roger the lodger in the end, Bloody Roger Douglas Grrrrrrr

I would say from the summer we have just had we are back to global cooling, which was forecast when I was young. (yes that long ago).

We had a 5 aftershock at 8 ish this morning but only about 5-6k deep, caused a lot more damage, I live near to 2 active Volcanoes and have been through 2 good eruptions and a few minor ones, so Volcanoes and Earthquakes make you realise how weak we are compared to the forces of nature, global warming yes but man made no no no
