Politically-based climate activists change the name of their cause
First, "their" cause was called global warming, then climate change, and now in May 2014, it's called "climate disruption." I give them points for creativity.
The problem is, we like air conditioning. We like receiving goods that are shipped quickly by planes and semi trucks. And we like to access the Internet with multiple devices, which require energy to manufacture, ship, and recharge.
Plus, the Internet requires a lot of equipment, such as servers, routers, cable, warehouses, etc.
We like plastic. It's used widely, and most of it is made from petroleum.
We like food that is produced all over the world and transported by fossil fuels.
We like coffee.
The solution may be a lifestyle that's closer to the earth than how the Amish live. The solution may be giving up nearly everything we enjoy today. These ideas, however, don't get promoted because we enjoy our standard of living, and we continually try to improve it.
Is the warming caused by solar activity?
If the climate disruption is caused by human-induced or human-accelerated global warming, and humans are a species of this planet, a mammal, then could be this climate change be called a "natural" warming?
If the thinking is that humans will destroy themselves, then could human-induced global warming be a natural part of our evolution or destiny?
If humans are the cause, then more humans could make it worse. And while fewer humans may not resolve the problem, fewer humans could slow the affects.
If human-induced global warming leads to catastrophic disasters that could reduce the human population, then it's possible that given a couple hundred years or more, this naturally occurring global warming problem could work itself out, naturally.
The problem is that the rest of nature does not adapt fast enough to human-caused changes.
