Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

General BS forum I guess anything is fair game in here. Just watch the subject matter doesn't get carried away too much. |

It's really a shame. Global warming is very serious, and some people just blow it off like it's nothing. This world is in for some serious change. Ice is melting extremely fast, and the more ice that melts, the faster the remaining ice melts. The gases is the atmosphere are accumulating much faster then the Earth can remove them, so it's only a matter of time. Check out this link, you may find it interesting.

I don't have a problem believing in global warming at all. But since periods of global warming and global cooling have happened time and time again throughout the history of our world, I just am not swallowing the claims that human beings are responsible THIS time, and therefore restrictions are necessary that will stop this process.
Natural cycles are happening all of the time, each with their own duration, which may or may not be perceivable by anyone alive today. This could easily just be a cycle that takes place every 300,000 years, and is unavoidable as is the rising sun in the morning. As such, I just believe that this is being used as yet another method to further reduce our freedoms and extract even more money from our pockets under the guise of a "crisis".

Well, one way to look at this is that if the earth never changed, there would be no reason for evolution. The odd thing is that human beings believe that we are immune to the effects of these changes.... While every other living organism is subjected to "adapt or die", humanity will instead try to dig it's heels in and fight the changes. Something tells me that the rule "adapt or die" will still apply, regardless...
