No doubt climate change is being effected by our race as a whole - but I'm not sure if whatever change we bring can even put a dent into the earth's well-being as a whole, since climate change, IS a response to our actions. Whether or not that response will favor human beings, of course, is another story altogether.

1. facts exist only in the languages they are expressed in.

2. for some, science is a collection of facts. but science is always updated, corrected, and overturned. nothing is totally correct; yet nothing is totally wrong. i would like to say that science is a collection of verifiable opinions - verifiable only if you speak the languages of logic and mathematics. if you do not, it would be simply another way people try to rationalize the seemingly chaotic world around us.

3. some people like to liken science to religion - but that is not quite accurate, because science is one of the few disciplines that allow you to verify its opinions, not through unconstrained experiences, but controlled experiments. any argument you want to put through will need to be accompanied by reproducible observations.

4. fortune telling may not be a science but it does not mean it is not a worthy art. just because it is not accurate does not mean it is not effective.

5. no man is an island. everyone is a universe in his own right.

6. the body is like a whole world on its own, closed from the outside, following its own path of evolution. it is in such a closed world that people are made. if we all came from such different worlds, why would we naturally speak the same language?
