Global warming is the cause of a number of damaging effects to the earth and its inhabitants, such as climate change, glacier retreat, rising sea levels, and now we may have a new threat on the horizon... world war! According to the 2007 CNA Corporation report, there is clear indication that as the tensions of global warming continue to heat up, so may the possibilities of war.
There are two obvious factors which will be the cause of the increasing threat of war:
1.Crowding and Territorial Tensions- The number one cause of such tensions will be the migration of different cultures to other territories in search of new resources to replace the increasingly depleting ones. Not only will many cultures find their resources disappearing, but the rising sea level will cover over parts of much of the land, minimizing usable farm area, fresh water, and cattle herds. In some cases, entire islands may become submerged.
Instead of allowing their sovereignty to disappear along with their dry ground, many of these endangered cultures will choose to battle with nearby countries in order to set-up their governments and house their citizens upon alternative soil. Inevitably larger powers will become a part of such squabbles and before you know it, we've got a world war on our hands.

Memo to Moonbats. The consensus among those NOT receiving government “research” grants is that “global warming” is a myth and a hoax. Time to wake up and go home. Your party is over.
Mental disease..
The 2 major reasons of overcrowding & competition for newly habitable lands have always been the same reasons for war..EVEN without the absurd global warming propaganda.
Nice spin though. Liberals remind me of those idiot children who put square blocks into round spaces.
Netherlands will invade Germany to gain living room for its people after the rising seas overrun the dikes. Floridians will move into South Carolina Georgia and Mississippi. And Mayor Ray Nagin will demand higher flood walls to prevent New Orleans from flooding again from his summer home in Denver.
WW IV???
What the hell happened to 3?

I guess you didn't get the memo. LOL!!!
I think it’s “I before III except after V.”
But, won’t world war harm the environment and possibly escalate climate change?
You just can’t make this stuff up.
the treehuggers are preying on our fears!!! (Al Gore said the same about Dubya and his weapons of mass distruction.)
Can we speed that up? I'm trying to sell my house in SC, and need to get it done now!!!
Psst.
‘III’ comes before ‘IV’ in Roman numerals. I know that’s very difficult for these sorts of people to understand, but it’s something that might make me chuckle to myself instead of laugh uproariously.
World War III was the Cold War, which upon ending with a US victory under President Ronald Reagan (Ronaldus Magnus).
With the end of the Cold War, which kept the world cool, global warming began. Thus we need to avoid World War IV by returning to the Cold War, and then the planet will cool down.
an inconvenient ‘truth’ was Algore’s weapon of mass distraction....wonder who wrote it!
-10F here in Alaska; we are burning up! LoL
