The fact that there are 6.2 billion humans breathing out CO2 and cutting down vegitation don't help things much. At the same time, we are using up all of the oil and making more atmospheric pollution.
Is it a problem, since I live in Ohio and we only had 4 days of snow here, I like it. But, if there are hurricanes and tornados because the atmosphere is out of wack, then we have to accept that certain things happened that might not have if the temperatures were lower.
What can be done about it? People can live off less power like me, but I don't think there are very many people like me out there. We can move to different locations. I wouldn't want to be in Saudi Arabia/Eqypt with 140F days, lots of people might die or something... We could blast rockets off and disperse pieces of aluminum foil or mylar to reflect the sunlight back into space before it hits the Earth. We can make a better Koyoto style agreement and only trade with countries that follow the rules. Or we can just let it run its corse and kill off some people, survival of the fittest style. When we run out of oil in 100 years, it will just go back to normal. And some person 10,000 years from now will look at an ice core sample and wonder what happened there?
Just wait until 2020, then there will be a "war on mother nature", just like the war of drugs and the war on terrorism.
