A couple of degrees C change could easily be just the effect of the sun. That's not to say we shouldn't waste resources but when someone got all hung up over the fact I use shower gel instead of a more environmentally friendly plasticbottle-free soap bar as if I was single-handedly killing the planet, I do start to wonder what we're coming to.
Seriously, do not get me started. The main reason I do engineering is because I know how fcuked its going to get if we continue the way we are. Seriously, things wont be bad right now...but in the time when I am old, things will be bad. So if things arent done now, say bye bye to the human race...it will go back the the ice age. I know that that is a big overstatement, but seriously, we need to change the way things are being done...
