Nodbugger | Did you know the United States has almost 3x more trees than it did 200 years ago?
|
That's completely wrong.
Crimson | The story was shaky at best, and the political message was as blatant as if they ran "Bush sucks" ads every 5 minutes. Perhaps the most obvious satire was how the president in this flick was made to be a bumbling idiot, while when Clinton was in office, Emmerich's president in Independence Day was a hero.
|
Alright, I haven't seen the movie yet, but I will soon, so I'm just judging from what you say here. First off, are you complaining that the movie was too close to real life in your second sentence? Also, I don't think Independence Day really had a political message, what with the President just randomly flying an airplane around and shooting aliens down. The reference there to Bill Clinton is shaky at best. Also, I don't think Bush the dyslexic could handle a disaster like this.
Now, I severely doubt that this would happen like it does in real life, if global warming became severe, lots of crap would still happen. For one, malaria might spread to new places as they become more tropical. Also, an interesting fact is that if a whale walks out of the water on tall legs, it would boil. It's metabolic processes run so hot that it needs to be in ocean water just to stay cool, and the frequently dive deep just to escape heat. If the oceans warmed up, these whales might have to go too deep just to stay cool. Then whales die. And lots of other crap that I don't want to write down right now.
"To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public." -- Theodore Roosevelt (1918)
"The danger to political dissent is acute where the Government attempts to act under so vague a concept as the power to protect "domestic security." Given the difficulty of defining the domestic security interest, the danger of abuse in acting to protect that interest becomes apparent. --U.S. Supreme Court decision (407 U.S. 297 (1972)

Tree's don't make much difference until they mature anyways. And that takes about 20-50 years. As for the rainforest and your uh... (resists insulting word) opinion..
Quote: | And why do you care so much if it is disappearing? Have you ever been to the rain forest? They suck, a lot.
|
http://www.colszoo.org/animalareas/aforest/rainnew.html <-- Rainforest facts.
Quote: | Rainforests are also the richest ecosystems on earth. Scientists estimate that they contain between 50% and 80% of all the Earth's plant and animal species. A typical 4-mile patch of rainforest contains as many as 1,500 species of flowering plants. The rainforest in the South American country of Ecuador has 20,000 kinds of flowering plants. The state of California, a third larger than Ecuador, has only 5,000. And 70% of the plants known to have anti-cancer properties come from the rainforest (National Cancer Institute).
|
Quote: | Environmental concerns: Environmentalists warn of calamity if rainforests are destroyed, Here is a sample of what the side effects of deforestation could be:
It is thought that 25% of the world's species could be lost by the end of this decade. Animals and plants that lived in the rainforests could be lost forever.
Many important resources could be lost. Only a fraction of the vegetation has been tested for medical use. Wild strains of many of the world's staple crops are in danger of being lost.
Natives in the jungle may be displaced, their way of life and culture destroyed.
Greenhouse gases and carbon dioxide contribute to global warming. The burning of rainforest accounts for nearly 30% of the carbon dioxide released in the atmosphere. This could increase.
Changes may occur in rainfall and air circulation and radiation from the sun may be greatly increased.

Yeah, the rainforest isn' t the same thing as the rainforest you see in Jurassic park. In some cases, you can look at one tree and find more species of ants than you can find in the whole of North America.
By the way, did you know President Bush has been running the most negative campaign in the history of the U.S.? The Washington Post did a research thing on it. So far, he's blanketed the country in 49,000 attack ads.

I said the most negative campaign, not the biggest campaign. Also, a lot of his campaign money comes from corporations promising to give him big sums a couple years ago if they could send in lobbyists to re-write the legislation.

dammit No!
Come on people, we were actually having a discussion with some sense of intellectuality. Please, go spam out some other thread.
