I'm really not sure what to make of this.

Easy there, Dolores.

That host is basically the posterchild for what Fox News is. Some dude who is annoying and buttboyish, trying to make daily events and opinions seem rad and edgy. Jesus Christ. It's a news channel and one of the first lines he says is "He founded The Weather Channel, my favorite channel. Lotta hot chicks there."

There's already been a debate. You've been proven wrong, and consequently lost.

How has anyone been proven wrong???
Don't get me started on this "global warming" crap. Anyone who now questions this idea of global warming and your carbon footprint are deneyed as modern day heretics. The fact that this global warming argument is an easy ticket for governments and companies to drastically throw up prices, increase legislation, and essentially piss all over the average man and woman are simply ignored in what has become a super fashionable movement.
Yes of course there is climate change, there always has been. Hell, they used to be able to ice skate across the Thames in London during the Tudor period it was so cold. Before that the the Romans would grow vines of grapes in Northern England in order to make wine. The world has always warmed up and cooled down in natural cycles. It's simply the sheer arrogance of man to believe that they can combat it in anyway and we can stop the earth itself simply doing its thing.....
What about the fact that the temperature on Mars has been rising over the past few years? Is that my fault now because I don't cycle to work and back???
The fact is that we have been sold a lie. A lie which conveniently means that governments and big business can make even more money out of us, and what's more they can try and make us feel guilty about the very process.
By all means be green. Reduce, reuse, recycle and all that jazz. It makes good sense of course it does. Don't buy into the convenient lie however that you and I are to blame for what is a perfectly natural cycle the world goes through and then be made to pay for the privilege.

Goddammit I thought I killed the discussion.
Fine.
This is what the current environmental debate is:
There's two guys sitting in a room. There's a pile of food in one corner and a toiler in the other. These two dudes are stuffing their face with the food and constantly defecating. They're just letting the feces fall whereever into steaming piles. Eventually, the room gets hotter, proportional to the amount of feces in it. One dude says "Hey, the room is hotter, is that because of the feces? Maybe we should clean it up or something or stop eating so much." the other dude says "The room is the same temperature." Eventually, the room keeps getting hotter and the first dude says "No, it's hotter and it's definitely because of the feces." The second guy goes "Yeah, okay, I guess you were right, but it's not because of the feces. You can't just say it's the feces that makes it hotter, there's way more variables than that here." The first guy says,"Fuck you, look it's the feces. It makes more sense than anything else." The second due is like "Really? Because the walls are hotter than usual too, which can't be because of the feces." Meanwhile, they just keep defecating all over the place and cramming food in their mouths. Eventually the first dude says "Okay, wait, hold on. All we have to do is split the room into your side and my side. If you have too much feces on your side of the room, then you pay me some money and it'll be okay." The second dude is like "Wait, what? What if your side has too much? And I don't accept that the feces are a problem anyway!" Of course, by now the room is stinky, hot, and they're knee-deep in feces. Eventually they die of cholera.
The moral being that it doesn't matter how hot it is, clean up your shit and don't argue about it. It's fucking common sense.
RallyMonkey:
That's assuming it's something you can clean up.
