all due respect to everyone who took part in this discussion, or who may take part in this discussion, but i find these debates entertaining....it seems to me that people on all sides of the environmental issue have totally missed the point,,they love to toss the phrase "killing the planet" around like some kind of fundamentalist mantra....the fact is, we're not killing the planet, we don't have the ability to kill the planet, even if we manage to blow our atmosphere so far into outerspace it escapes the gravitational pull of earth, life in some form will most likely survive,,,what we're doing is killing ourselves by altering the environment so as to make it unable to support life as we know it, and what will happen is some other form of life will arise that is more suitable to the new environment we created....perhaps if the "greenies" rephrased their battlecry they might make more of an impact ,,,and i firmly believe a book called "Fallen Angels" by Larry Niven should be required reading in highschool,,,if you have strong feelings on this issue, regardless of what side of the fence you stand on, you might consider reading it too,,,if nothing else it was interesting sci-fi
