I don't think climate change deniers can have 'chagrin'. And while this is a groovy graphic, mostly it goes to show just how really really BIG the earth is compared to the livable space on it. All the humans in the world squished together into a ball would be just over .6 mile in diameter. The lesson we ned to start teaching is not 'Oh humans are destroying the planet with their polluting ways' because the planet will sail on serenely for billions of years without us, we need to start teching 'Humans are destroying the part of the planet *THAT KEEPS US ALIVE* with their polluting ways.' We're not killing the planet, we're killing ourselves. Climate change deniers are doing it to make a buck. -- Bruce Johnson University of Arizona College of Pharmacy Information Technology Group Institutions do not have opinions, merely customs -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "StrataList-OT" group.
