http://www.ted.com "I don't think we're going to make it," John Doerr proclaims, in an emotional talk about climate change and investment. Spurred on by his daughter, who demanded he fix the mess the world is heading for, he and his partners at Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers embarked on a greentech world tour -- surveying the state of the art, from the ethanol revolution in Brazil to Wal-mart's (!) eco-concept store in Bentonville, Arkansas. KPCB is investing $200 million in green technologies to save the planet and make a profit to boot. But, Doerr fears, it may not be enough.

theiamania When numbers like you posted like "257 icecubes of 1x1x1 kilometer is melting of Greenland every year"It can sound like a lot but let's be honest and also post the number of what you call "ice cubes" that there are in Greenland. Now with ALL THE INFORMATION a person can see that your 257 cubes is like a speck of sand on a beach. You should also remember that the planet does not have a stable temp it's always changing, you my friend are only living in a speck of time

The estimate at the moment is that around 257 icecubes of 1x1x1 kilometer is melting of Greenland every year. And this number is rising.

MemeVector2 You have no idea how much ice there is in the world, no way is all the ice going to be gone. And remember only 10,000 years ago the entire USA was covered in snow and ice

Temperature isn't the problem (yet). Heat is the problem. My analogy is this: Imagine a glass of water with ice cubes in it. Put it over a flame. Stick a thermometer in it. The flame adds heat, but the temperature stays about the same as the ice melts. Once the ice is gone, the temperature rises fast! This should illustrate why we need to get our butts moving while we still have ice. Once we run out, the temperature will rise so fast we won't have enough time to fix anything before we bake.

That's the only way people understand the importance of their involvment. When you are too optimistic people say:'' No worries, they will fix it'' This time everyone needs to reconsider every single action...

every year since the early 70's that I could remember in Canada, we were able to skate on open water in winter, not in the last three years, my kids blame my generation also

This excellent video drove me to embrace the power of YouTube like never before. I haven't been the same since and I ALREADY WAS an environmentalist!

Through history, CO2 follows the climate; it does not make the weather: That is a lie from nuclear power, who thought up Global Warming to give CO2, the gas of life, a bad name.

Doerr & His Pals are Pirates! They are prolonging this global warming hoax for the sole purpose of thier personal gain.
