Is Global Warming a Hoax?

BTW re: population growth, that's most likely already slowing down. Current estimates say we'll hit 9 billion by 2050, but we probably won't exceed 10 billion, at least on this planet.

Also,

If we could put 3 or 4 billion people into some kind of rocket and fire them into the sun, then the rest of us could let our cars idle 24/7 and it wouldn't matter a damn bit.

Nah, we'd just get warmer a bit slower. It took millions of years for mother earth to deposit all that juicy fossil fuel into the ground, and it takes us a couple centuries to dig it all up. If we keep doing it, whether it takes us 200 or 300 years total makes no difference. We need to stop doing it.

Does not compute.

Pandoras box is open on fossil fuels. You can't close it. We will never, ever, be in a position where "mother earth" is producing fossil fuel deposits at a rate that's at least as fast as the rate we're using it. Just...never.

It's gonna run out sometime. The sooner that happens, the sooner we'll cease producing carbon emissions through the use of fossil fuels. Isn't that the ultimate victory for the planet?

Wouldn't the greenest, most conservationist, most climate sensitive policy be to promote excessive and wasteful consumption and drive us to the inevitable conclusion as soon as possible?
