I don't really get the point of this comment. I'm also early 90's and I'm wondering why you're not more heavily for or against either side. You're living in an insanely fast paced world where, in 50 years, we will either be dead and roasted in Earth-Venus, or we will have carbon sequestration figured out and be on Mars. We need engineers to get option two, and you being neutral increases the chances of Earth-Venus.
Wait, there are actually people who think the Earth will be roasted in 50 years?
I have seen such a comment twice on HackerNews before. And one from a friend on Facebook.
I think that's why people think Global warming is false. There are other people saying that all life is going to disappear, which is funny and clearly alarmism.
can you blame them with all the media alarmism about global warming? The Day After Tomorrow type movies and such too.
Not that it's not a problem - it obviously is - but it's not like the earth is going to be barbecue'd in our lifetime.
In 400 years of exponential 1% energy consumption growth it's possible.
