Yep. We need to keep cutting down trees and putting in parking lots. Humans don't do that part, do they? If I'm not misled, trees take one breath a day. They breathe in CO2 during the day, and exhale O2 by night. That sounds important for the balance. To say nothing about how much rain trees attract.

About 16 years ago there was a good documentary titled Conversations with Elder Brother, on PBS. Shamans in South America reported their discoveries to a group who went down there to travel up and down the mountain with them. Water was disappearing, because the glaciers were disappearing.

I'll see if I can find a link to the video, and post it later.

It's absolutely apparent to anyone with half a brain that climate change is man made but in the bigger picture it really doesn't matter, does it? It's obvious even to a science-hater like you that global warming is happening right now and we better figure out a way to reverse it or it won't really matter who the next presidents will be.
