Before our discussion I never really took time to think about global warming. It's definitely a hot topic, but it was a bit of a "no-brainer" to me. Obviously, we should be taking care of our habitat because it's the only one we have. On the other hand, I also have to wonder whether or not global warming can honestly be stopped. I feel as though the consequences are out of sight and out of mind for most people, no matter how much media attention the issue is given. I thought a little bit about our discussion a few weeks back concerning the fossil record and the possibility of human extinction. At the rate we're going, it seems entirely possible and somewhat ironic because we're the ones actually doing the damage.
