We don't have to worry about global warming. As Woody Allen makes an interesting point about our pointlessness... ha ha!
He offers up the dank and somewhat dark realism about the inanity -- or silliness -- of human life, the planet, the sun and the solar system -- and, yep, even adoring and worshiping T-Girls is pretty pointless... ha ha ha! :) :) :)
And as the British cosmologist Martin Rees has pointed out: the ultimate fate of the universe is pretty bleak -- ha ha!
Woody Allen about meaning and truth of life on Earth - YouTube
Woody paints a bleak five billion year forecast but refrains from saying life isn't worth living. Ever the artist, he sees his goal as finding ways of persuading us (and perhaps himself) that it is indeed all worthwhile. He wants to do this without resorting to cheats (like: it's gonna be okay 'cause there's a heavenly afterlife where we're all meet and maybe drink coffee, converse and smoke cigarettes).Quote:

Nevertheless, I'm not religious, not a believer in gods or an afterlife, I'm quite familiar with the life of stars, planetary systems and the cosmos. Yet I'm thoroughly enjoying myself, my friends, the books they recommend, the movies, the discussions, the times we live in, ripples and waves across the pond behind my house, the juncos and chickadees in the trees...everything. Is life worth it? That's a no-brainer.
Should we stop polluting the atmosphere with greenhouse gasses. I'm staying out of that one. I'll just say that if we don't, the thermal energy of the oceans and atmosphere will continue to build and the climate will continue to respond.
more worried about global cooling than global warming scientists predict that the earth is approaching another ice age
Check you time scales. There are two orders of magnitude difference.Quote:
