[QUOTE="Chris Johnson, post: 67597, member: 975"] Re: Hurricane Sandy I think that given the general trend of environmental destruction that us humans are well known for, I find it not a ridiculous leap to assume that our polluting ways will inevitably have an effect on our atmosphere and therefore, by extension, alter the climate to some degree. I also think that there is much evidence to support the fact that the climate of our planet goes through many changes of its own accord. However, I think that the question surely has to be 'to what degree do we effect our climate?'. I believe it is abundantly clear that our actions have an effect on our environment. The question is what is this doing, and if it is bad, then what is the most effective way to reduce the negative effects. I'm not sure how anyone could honestly believe that industrialisation doesn't effect the climate at all? [/QUOTE]
