    Different scientists say different things, so we are back to best guess.

    The world is ending in 12 years anyway so what's the use doing anything about it?

    Yes, but almost every single one who's field of study would inform them on the matter says it's a problem. But hey. If WE'RE not causing it, then we might as well give up and let it kill us. Right?

    I believe global warming is real, and we're probably causing it, but I'm somehow not afraid of it at all. Just kinda morbidly curious to see what happens.

    It will kill some, the planet is getting crowded and these weather events that always have been happening are trimming the fat. The ones who will not change will be the first to go and then sometimes we will just be in the way.

    For the most part its usually a quiet ride. If you smoke Seneca's you can stop on the res and get em for $2 a pack lol. I tried the menthols once and couldn't finish 1. Gotta have iron lungs for those
