Some ammusing historical comments about our climate from newspapers and scientists over the last century or so:
-
water if inhaled can kill yet it is a neccessity for life, if you were submerged in it would you be happy? or dead? just because of fact A is true does not stop fact B from being true and to think it does shows a lack of logical thinking. carbon dioxide may or maynot be a factor in climate change (and history says it does - although not manmade) but as it is caused (least the bit we can effect) by wastefull processes, then surely reducing these emmisions cannot be a bad thing?
You cant outrun the world, but there is no harm in getting a head start
Agreed. Reducing emissions earlier would've stopped certain events such as 4000 people dying in London in 1952 (although unofficial figures estiamte at around 12k) due to the heavy levels of smog caused by horrendous air pollution. Clean air act passes: "holy crap these buildings aren't actually black" people exclaim as they venture outside and give the walls a clean. I think there's been a couple of similar incidents around the world. So even if reducing wasteful emissions do or don't affect climate change, local are environment would definately improve. A fart in an enclosed space is worse than in a field for example. :-D

What do you think about governments telling people to reduce their carbon emissions by going to bed early?

Again you need to stop thinking that governments are TELLING as the article show and states that they are starting a campaign to ENCOURAGE governments tell you do something by passing laws governments encourage you by starting campaigns. and to answer your question, I think going to bed has many benefits other than carbon reduction benifits.

It is bad economically and societially. Good for governments though because they get more control. Good for special interest in government because they get billions of dollars.

Smog is not carbon dioxide.

again I think the benifits of going to bed have more postive effects than just reducing carbon emissions with proper amount of sleep you are more alert and the level of accidents are reduced, concentration levels are higher so taking all of those into consideration going to bed early has its benifits! just incase you misread what i have said if you take it alone on a per person basis the effects are low but with others benefits, you the person gain more. but if you take a country like Japan that are so technology dependant and have 50% of them doing this then hell yeah you would see a reduction in emmissions and a great benefit

That's not the issue. The issue is government telling people to go to bed early to
reduce carbon emissions

yes, that wasn't what I was indicating, I'm trying to indicate that even if the emission reduction plans don't do anything on a global scale, they do improve things on a local scale. Unless you like breathing through a car's exhaust pipe.
They don't improve things at all. Things are badly damaged economically, and societally by a reduction in carbon emissions. People starve, quality of life downgrades, and society collapses into hardcore feudalism. Governments benefit though because they get more power, and special interest inside government benefit because they get billions of dollars and get to live like Lords and Kings.

And what do you think about that, specifically about the purpose of reducing carbon emissions as that is the reason of the government manipulating people into going to bed early.

However there are always alarmists scientists spreading scare stories about death and destruction, and there are always newspapers prepared to print those stoires, regardless of the direction of the change. Notice the '30 year cooling trend'. And the 'civilisation ending in 15 to 30 years'? It is all so familiar...

Of course, if people were actually interested in being informed, rather than having to be scared into picking up a newspaper or turning the news on things may be a tad different. But really, 'humanity might be kinda screwed in 100-200 years' vs 'Everyone dies in flood two days from now', which is the media going to pick up? Using what the media touts around to disprove global climate change is about as effective as using my site to disprove religion. All either proves is there are assholes, idiots and morons everywhere.

Oh come on, this is such a childish argument. We are talking about 500 to 600 parts per million of co2. It doesnt become toxic till it reaches 5%. Thats 50,000 parts per milion. OK you are going to be very uncomfortable at that level but not dead. And for milions of years life on earth has lived under conditions upto 10,000 ppm. A mere 1%.

Im not old enough to know of the colding stories but the most vivid story of the global warming crisis is from the carbon gas's emmited from the fridge freezers in the 80's

Yeah, you see you got htis all wrong. Its flourocarbon gas used in fridges and it damaged the ozone layer. (I am not saying it doesnt add to GW, or even GC, almost everything in the atmosphere will have some effect, but that wasnt the news story at the time).

Even though these comments stemmed from scientists? Clearly there has always been scientific hysteria, and the press has always been ready to print it. Thats the point of my post. And while there might be some global warming caused by CO2, my post doesnt hope to disprove it, but to suggest that we be aware of past hysteria when we read todays scare stories.
