Everyone seems to be worried about global warming melting the polar ice caps, but why would that affect us? Do we use them for anything? Some say that would raise the water level and flood coastal cities, but we’re a rich country and can make more cities if we need them. There’s plenty of land in the Midwest for cities, too. Anyway, cities with their high density of population are becoming less useful in the internet age.
I just don’t get what the problem is here. I say we go ahead and melt the ice caps so people will stop worrying about them. We could use nukes, but I’m afraid the radiation from that might be harmful to the environment.
Besides, aren’t there people around the world suffering from severe drought? More water for them! It’s win-win.
Quick, Alan! Let’s capture those melting ice caps for the next bottled water craze. We could call it “Polar Bear Juice” or “Water of the Ages” or…
Actually, according to archeologists, human societies have thrived during the last several warming epochs. The British Isles could grow grapes again…
Don’t ever say that…that you will make those crazies my neighbors when it floods…please DON’T EVER SAY THAT AGAIN!!!!
AlanBBQ stole my thunder. We have droughts… wouldn’t melting ice be cool? We could use the ice to keep cool during the dangers of ‘global warming!’
