Re: Students Label Auckland Council “Climate Criminals”

Well done guys. Keep up the good work. To the climate change skeptics out there, lets talk basic physics and chemistry based on simple logic.

The ecosphere is dynamic. So yes, it has and will continue to change. But it exists in a state of DYNAMIC EQUILIBRIUM. Just as with any well evoloved biological system, the equilibrium is buffered. However, there is always a point at which the excessive addition of a particular substance will upset or "tip" the balance of the dynamic equilibrium. A radical shift occurs in the system before a new, different equilibrium is restored. Think of the Earth as existing in this dynamic equilibrium:

Energy is stored in fossil fuel deposits at a geological rate which spans many millennia -> humans come along and reverse this trend over the period of the industrial revolution.

Is this anthropogenic rate of energy release going to upset the balane? Yes. And ask yourself whether or not you want to find out what the state of the new equilibrium for our planet Earth will look like.

Why get technical at climatescience.org.nz when the basic mass balance reveals the simple truth.

And why argue against the grain anyway? Less pollution and a less energy intensive way of life will be the outcome of climate change initiatives. What's wrong with that? The Earth's other resources like clean water, ecosystem health and arable soil will be depleted soon if we as hmans do not change our ways.
