    These are not facts.

    1) There's evidence that we're effecting the climate. As to what degree we are not sure. Our planet has gone through natural climate shifts in the past. chances are it's going through one right now, and the only issue is that we're giving it steam.

    2) This was not intentional and only resulted from a lack of foresight.

    3)We've done a lot of logging, but clear cutting is almost obsolete now and seedlings are planted in place after most logging operations.

    4) We're an emotional, social, and interactive species. We develop attachment as a result complex emotions that have proven to be crucial to survival.

    5) A subjective opinion and false generalization. What about the countless indigenous tribes that hunt as a way of life?

    6) Again, another false generalization from evidence of a a small group of people.

    7) Another false generalization. We'd all like things to be sunshine and rainbows, but it's impossible to think that everyone will agree on everything.

    8) Another false assumption. We're not all arrogant. if we were we wouldn't be having this debate because there would be no concern for the world around us.

    This is an inaccurate assumption.

    I've always believed that the soul and mind are one, and just as death ends all cognitive processes it also ends the mind. You simply can't characterize what many refer to as a "soul" without pulling aspects of thought and individuality into the mix. And those alone are accumulated through our experience in the world.

    That's simply on too small of a scale considering we're discussing solar, galactic, and universal end. Global warming is only major in that it deals with a shift in the climate. The Sun isn't simply increasing in temperature or heat output, rather the Earth is experiencing a stage of rapid warming. This brings us to another debate regarding it's natural occurrence. Despite the fuss about the subject, Global warming would never tear the planet apart or make it completely inhospitable.

    I found that the plot ran far too quickly considering the amount of development they tried to condense into that 1 hour and 30 minutes. Hayden Christensen seemed to have difficulty breaking his redundant persona and did not come off as charming as the character should've have been. Rachael Bilson was an interesting surprise, except she only seemed to play a mirrored version of Summer from the OC. It wasn't as bad as Daredevil or Electra, but it was pretty close.

    Speculation in public just makes you look like a fool 90% of the time. Keep your thoughts to yourself or in controlled and realistic discussions.

    Well anything beyond moderation is always bad for you. In a number of cases moderate amounts of alcohol can actually increase reaction time and cortical stimulation which is why we tend to become rather sociable after 1-3 drinks on average. Lowering the age would probably make things much worse. Young children and teens are already being exposed to a great deal of stressors to begin with, and allowing them to have alcohol would only contribute to a developing dependence. While most underage drinking is as a result of teens wishing to establish a way of autonomy and threats to personal freedom it would be far worse if it was just handed to them. Raising the age may show some improvement in the number of alcohol-related risks and accidents, especially among college students and people who have just hit the legal drinking age as they're the population labeled as being the most at risk. Then again chances are that we'd experience the same thing that we do with restricting younger teens from drinking, except on a much larger scale no doubt.
