Ultimately, it boils down to sustainability: can we (the [ab]users of this fair planet) continue what we are doing, indefinitely?
If you answer yes, you haven't used your head.
We overfish the seas.
We clear-cut the rainforests.
We ship more doodads and widgets across the entire planet than we could ever need.
We bicker and fight over oil...but instead why not use all that effort to collectively solve our problems?
I don't care who you are. At least think of the consequences to your actions. Where will humanity (and the state of this planet) be in 10 years? 20 years? 50 years?

Hmmmm, a thread about global warming/cooling becomes about oil and fishing. Come on Nate, stay on subject.Admit that there is no proof of global warming/cooling or anything and we can all move onto talk about tuna boats...
Although I think that even if we keep up as we are it won't make a difference in 50 years. Maybe 2-300 years if we keep going as we are, but by then we will hopefully be using bio fuels and nuclear power for our electricity and transportation. At the rate we are building new nuclear power plants and bio refineries it will take 300 years before they can take the place of petroleum.
