Believe me I didn't drink any Kool-Aid. Its the short sightedness of people, exactly like the ones I'm reading, that is what is wrong with this arguement. I almost feel disgusted that my fellow hunters don't believe the planet is changing and WE are the reason why. How hard is it to understand? Its not just the Hurricanes that is just one example. The theory that people are just morepopulatedaroundthe oceanand we just notice it more is completely a bogus thought. Hurricanes are tracked and recorded of their magnitude and they are happening now more frequently and stronger than ever. Hurricanes need warm water to gather strength and sincethere are warmer waters now b/cthe temperatureis higher there is a correlation. But like I said that is just one problem.The biggerproblem will come and it WILL come that when the Polar Ice Caps melt it exposes the bare ground underneath. Under that ground is a gas called methane that has beentrapped under the ice but as the sun comes down on that black bare ground, the ice will melt quicker and sea levels will rise and methane will be released. Methane isafar largerproblemfor the environment than CO2 levels. These problems exist...they are fact, this isn't the media blowing this out of control. After all,it has been confirmed that the Bush Administration might not havereleased all the facts to the public about Global Warming. I have a Masters in GIS with an emphasis in Environmental Science. I have read countless Scientific Journals and have never found one article that has said that Global Warming is false.
