as far as the environment America has done more for it than any third world country has..for god sakes look at what Brazil is doing to thier own rainforests..pollution controls?? go to India to see what they are doing. Actually since 1975 pollution has gotten alot better in the United States and the ozone layer while it does have a small hole in it is actually getting better..take cleveland in the 70s for example, hell back then thier River caught on fire for gosh sakes! as far as third and second world countries they will always be poor its just the way the world is built..geography my man! the reason the northen countries are better off is because of the cold weather..we have to work harder to survive thus kicking off the industrial revolution etc. thats all i got to say bout this.. biggrin:[/quote:f7102] rolleyes: Australia and New Zealand are first world countries, and I don't think you could call them "north". |
this has nothing to do with 1rst world or 3rd world nations or democracy vs whatever. it is big business. everyone knows whats going to happen when the ozone and our water takes a shit. everyone knows what will happen. the problem is economical. we need to change from oil and gas to electricity, and from massive deforestation to using steel and plastic. but if you do that, then you are out of several thousand jobs, no politician will ever put their name on that shit. more cars are turning hybrid now, and if anyone saw that article on cnn about how solar power will be cheaper], things are starting to turn that way. it willl take time, but serious shit will have to happen first.

Third world nations industrialized because of first world nations. Anyway, I changed my stand on this topic anyway, I believe that there a some alternative energy sources now, like Tesla's "Free" electricity where electricity runs without wires, but solar power is just not realistic because how many solar panels would you need to actually make up for the electricity to power New York City? Much less 6 billion people... Anyway, concerning you first few comments, stop watching Fox news and learn to appreciate other countries in the world. |

Hey, I put a lot of effort into polluting and generally destroying the world. I don't need you hippies ruining my hard work. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going outside with an aerasol can and depleting the ozone. Cheers.
