yes but the powers that be dont give a dam about the environment, all they care about is money.
OZONE Depletion....

Not only, if the poles should melt completely this would 'only' be enough for a water level rise of 50m around the world. Sure, this sounds very little, but have a look what portions of many countries lie beneath that mark. It would not mean we'd run out of rolling hills countryside but quite a few countries would end their existence. Britain would be a bit smaller ... uhmm, I may actually start construction of a peer in front of the house, toopjknibbs wrote: High places like Tibet and Mexico will never be underwater.
this luckily cannot be generalised, as there is a lot of action in the right direction being undertaken in a lot of the european countries. The worst litteres of our environment live in North America and Australia, not sure about Japan. This is not an afront on the people as individuals, it is a matter of politics to comply to rules for industry in the first place. The last conference on that matter is only a few months back, isn't it?Pointer88 wrote: yes but the powers that be dont give a dam about the environment, all they care about is money.

No, actually not. Your basket is the reason for the increasing number of endangered species but luckily does not have any effects on the ozone layerElectricMonk wrote:My laundry basketPointer88 wrote: What do you think is causing the ozone depletion?

Not necissarily, ice shrinks in mass when frozen from water. The fact that any ice colder than 32~ shrinks as well, means that ice frozen at a great deal colder (ie.-100 ~) is more dense. If all ice thawed , and eventually this as well, the change in mass from solid to liquid would increase to a much larger amount.
