3. IT just cannot be ignored by ignoramus's any longer.
The North Pole. An island. Melting. Methane. Frozen diseases from thousands/thousands of years ago. Melting into our atmosphere. If I could buy myself off the planet I wouldn't hesitate. (Think Top 1%!).

4. This will be the main story of our children and grandchildrens lives
They will all question why we did not start acting more forcefully to stem the tide of global warming. Oklahoma Senator James (Creationist) Inhofe will go down in history as a class A moron.
