The global warming is prediction for years ahead.Temperatures grow, but maybe this will be buffered somehow by the Earth and its biosphere ?? And if, when ? In 10 years or in 10 billions of years ? That would be too late.Or on the contrary, maybe temperatures won't stop grow even after burning out all fuels. Because balance would be achieved much after achieving the maximum carbon dioxide concentration.So far temperature is growing, what supports the global warming theory. So this is almost certain.There are another symptoms of degradation of our environment, going on right now, like species extinction, pollution, extinction of ecosystems, like reefs, or their manual removal like in the Amazon, eutrophication of the water by powders for washing. Most of all  the ocean phytoplancton produces the oxygen, not forest, so water pollution is deadly danger for us.Everything disappears from year to year. Wetlands, natural reservoirs, wild shores. This is real for sure.I wouldn't wear blinkers on the eyes like a horse or mule and focus only on the global warming. This is like doing only one project in the lab. A little risky.By the way. There is a new strong hurricane and a new very powerful earthquake in the area. In Mexico city this time. Just after one huge hurricane and during new one.2011<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hurricane_Irene" target="_blank">Hurricane Irene</a>: Formed August 21, 2011, Dissipated August 30, 2011. It was moving along the east shore to Virginia and further.<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2011_Virginia_earthquake" target="_blank">Virginia earthquake</a>: August 23Virginia is not a typical location where earthquakes occur. That was something extra.</blockquote>
