Now, when I say environmentalism, I'm dealing with the rainforest and what not. How do you guys feel about it? What's your stance on this topic?
If there has already been a thread about this, then whatever. |

generally right, but your description of it as a barrier is misleading.
the atmosphere isn't keeping the earth warm, like a simple blanket. the atmosphere itself is warming, like an electric blanket, which in turn warms the earth. which is why it's not logical that the upper atmosphere is cooling. |
