Will Earth Expire By 2050?

_josh writes: "Will overconsumption force humanity off this planet in less than 50 years? It may sound sci-fi, but according to the WWF in this story at the Observer, it's entirely possible. Maybe now I can convince my brother not to buy that SUV ..." Take with as large a grain of salt as you think appropriate.

    If it came to Triple H vs. a panda, my money is on the panda.
    Especially if it's the Giant Panda that is always attacking Brent in PvP.

    Moding a post down based on it's political content is an abuse of the system. IF you disagree with a post just because of it's political content, and resort to the use of Mod points in an attempt to make the post less likely to be read then you are engaging in Censorship rather than modaration. This is equally wrong if the post is modded down for failing to comply with a Liberal, a Conservative, or any other label you care to name's viewpoint.

    Regardless of someone's political views, if they reply to a post based on it's political content by modding it down rather than replying to it, they are a coward.
