Ok so lets assume that were not causing the planet to warm up.. Were damn sure causing water and air pollution. It wont matter what the temperature is when we cant survive a drink of water or a deep breath.
I used to point to the Cuyahoga River in Cleveland as an example of how far we have come in cleaning up pollution(it caught on fire back in 1969 and burned for a month) but then I saw this today.
[Link: blog.cleveland.com]A quote from the article:
"Meanwhile, hundreds of sludge-smeared gulls -- already dead or dying slowly -- were still floating on the waters of the Cuyahoga River. Most of them are just downstream from the site where environmentalists this week celebrated the stream's remarkable comeback since the June 22, 1969, river fire."
