Its good to see that you have some useful information to contribute to the thread...;)

http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=1992629256196958115&q=oil A good watch that discusses peak oil, and the geopolitical motives behind oil and the future - and why we need to find a different energy source as soon as possible - if not to prevent evironmental disaster - but to save humanity.

Depending on your definition of concensus - it appears that (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Global_warming_controversy) Additionally - [/b]

Have you read the article before shooting accusations?

Yes. Besides, their information comes from credible sources (follow the links, Neo).

The WSJ relied on a flawed study: http://thinkprogress.org/2006/06/26/wsj-gore/

That's what scares me!!! Well that, and the fact that China will surpase us in the future.

Florida has problems of its own (major urban sprawl) - yeah its bad! That and all of the over priced real estate here make things difficult. I don't want them to drill at all - however I realize that it will not happen. I am optimistic that in the US since we have all sorts of money and...

It may be economically feasible, however the amount of energy it takes to recover oil from shale and tar sands is amazing!

Couldn't have said it better myself. :clapping:

Damn right not in my back yard! I moved to Fl for a reason, I want to be able to breathe clean air, and drink clean water (which, unfortuantely due to the greedy b@stards in Miami that are contaminating the aquafer due to their deep well injection - may not be able to). I don't want this...

I actually do wish gas would go to $4 a gallon to force people to change. As I stated before, I believe that people will not change their habits until it becomes economically feasible for them to do so.

Lamont - it doesn't seem to matter how many facts and statistics you provide to some of these folks. They seem to live in some sort of bizarro world where up is down, and red is black. You deserve an SUV? Hell, I deserve a million bucks.

Actually, a couple of friends and I were discussing this. Its pretty interesting that people put money before anything else. People will not change their habits until it becomes economically feasible to them (ala - if gas gets above $4 a gallon, for example). This is a shame, because from a...

DS-125 still for sale - or sold?

Wow - 14 pages! Guess I've touched off a nerve or something? :1poke: So I'm glad to see discussion regarding this. I feel its important that we talk about these sort of things, as they effect OUR sport! If we don't talk about them - than we are doing ALL divers a disservice, as we would...

Please explain why this was done? I didn't get a chance to see some of the posts.

No - I want them to FIX the damn problem! I want the american people to wake up and realize that we only have 1 earth - once its gone, its gone. Shifting the pollution to another area is not the answer. Fixing the problem is! [Poltical content edited by Moderator - Rick Inman]
