I live along the Front Range of Colorado and I frequently hike in the foothills with my trusty dog. It is a common experience to look east onto the plains and on the horizon be able to clearly discern the curve of the earth.
For those who have never had this experience, it can be quite an epiphany. Right there before your eyes you can actually see the curve of the globe of this wonderful place we call home.

Okay, step up to teh plate!....................
Not possible at that altitude.
So is the implication that we aren’t good stewards, that we haven’t stepped up to the plate?
Does anyone who is pushing global warming, ever give us credit for the enormous work we have done in recent decades in cleaning up the environment?
What the hell is that? I don’t care. I’ll double up on my cholesterol meds and eat it anyway.
What I think? I think drivel like this belongs in chat.
Not if you have to drive there. “If you’re not part of the solution, you’re part of the pollution.” LOL! I just made that up. At least I think I did.
His epiphany was that the earth is not flat?
I’ve said since AlGore’s movie that AGW (human caused global warming) is an environmentalist’s wet dream. It is the authority to which they can call to control every aspect of human life - IF they can convince us that man made CO2 is the cause.
The reason is simple. CO2 is the byproduct of everything we humans endeavor to do as much as O2 is the byproduct of everything plants endeavor to do. Control its production and you control everything, right down to how many kids I can have to how much exercise I’m allowed to do.
It is a wicked creation designed to put the neck of the human race under a single boot.
We as the USA isn’t screwing up anything....
The rest of the world needs to step up...
Stewards of the Planet who must step to the plate.
Makes us sound like baseball-playing gods. A ridiculous mixed-metaphor.
When I was a kid we were emptying raw sewage from five cities into Lake Erie.
When my mom was a kid Pittsburgh was often dark at noontime due to all the coal smoke.
Seems to me we’re doing a pretty good job.
My thought exactly.
So a square mile is always square? A square mile can't be 5.28 feet deep and 1000 miles long?
On the other hand, you have to be careful not to worship the creation and worship the Creator. That can be idol worship, as it has been for thousands of years..
Plesae repeat that often.
Environmental accords often exempt third world countries from standards.
...Pittsburgh was often dark at noontime due to all the coal smoke.
I remember seeing the brown dome over Pittsburgh
as a young child from an airplane.
20 years later, it was crystal clear
