Extra Credit – Youtube video

As I watched the youtube video posted on the blog for the third time, I realized if I hadn’t found a hole by now, I wasn’t going to.  Though I know there is a hole, I could not make the connection so I decided to argue it anyway.  I believe this man does a great job describing all the possible outcomes of global warming, through his collum v.s. row logic.  Climate change may or may not be real, so who is to decide if we should act upon it.  If there was a rumor saying Russia was planning an attack on American soil, we would make sure that we had cold hard facts that there would be an attack, before we chose to retaliate.  I believe global warming is similar to that.  The man in the video seems to think that we should focus on what collum to choose, some what like buying a lotto ticket.  If you choose the “Yes” collum, the outcome is all around better.  If we choose to do something and it is false, we loose money, but would still be alive and would have just been taking percausion.  If it is true and we choose to do something about it, we can in the end stop it from happening, but it would have to start now.  On the other hand, if is false and we do nothing about it we are in the same position with nothing lost.  But if it is real and we choose to do nothing about it, economical, political, socail, environmental, and health problems would occur durastically.  So which collum has the better outcome.  I believe we should do nothing, until the problem at hand has merit.  With that kind of opinion we would have a ”smiley face” world in the end no matter what.  Just as if there were rumors of Russian’s attacking America, we would be finding out if that is true the moment they caught wind of it.  It should be that way wit global warming, because both are dangerous.  We should research until we know for a fact climate change is real or fake.  Once we do we pick our collum, and no matter what we will be right because we put in the time and research.  That way we save money, and end up smiling in the end.
