I'm about to declare victory in this thread and I didn't even have to write my bits on global warming.

something about the logic "we don't have the technology at the moment, so our alternatives are (1) continue the way we have or (2) abandon civilization" seems flawed. what about another option -- (as people have attempted to express in this thread previously) industries could be gradually re-aligned to support clean(er) power/transportion sources. is definitive proof needed before we take action to repair/prevent damage to the environment? had we always waited until scientific theories were fully proven and fleshed out, we'd still be gnawing on raw wooly mamouth meat. what we have now is strong evidence that global warming exists and no reason to act in willfull ignorance of those findings.
