The earth has been going through climate changes for millions of years. How do you think Greenland got its name? Even if everyone were to live like people lived a thousand years ago, could we make a dent? If so, why has climate change been around for years? I am afraid we just don't have that power to control weather on such a grand scale. I am however, all for recycling and not wasting our resources as we have a limited supply. Oil, however, is not one we should put in that category as we have only used a pitance of the reserve. Can we mere mortals do anything to prevent climate change?

Exactly. The activity by IT continues, you just lose money and line the pockets of the already wealthy elite. Do not fall for it. “We’re now offesetting our carbon emissions created by our I.T equipment by paying a carbon offsetting agency.”

It continues to happen on a regular and necessary basis as part of the unavoidable character of the planet. Climate has never been fixed or stable and the minimal changes observed in this era pale to insignificance in comparison to historical and future climate changes brought on by the earth itself and its natural forces. Mankind could not change the planet's climate if it tried. The only difference now is that international corporations have found ways to scam even more money from the working class through totally useless and unproductive concepts such as "carbon credit selling", whose end game is more enrichment for the elite and does absolutely nothing for or against the climate.

Even Wall Street types are making this case: listen to this audio interview on public radio (http://marketplace.publicradio.org/display/web/2010/08/13/mm-did-the-bp-oil-spill-curb-your-petroleum-habit/) The financial gurus say that our little personal actions are insignificant compared to systemic change, and systemic change will only come when it is easier to do the right thing than the wrong thing.
