Whenever we read about the natural world nowadays, it is generally to be (1) ? ? ? made given said granted dire predictions about its imminent destruction.
Some scientists go so (2) ? ? ? much often really far as to assert that from now on, the world can no longer be called 'natural', insofar as future processes of weather, (3) ? ? ? change atmosphere climate even , and all the interactions of plant and animal life will no longer carry on in their time-honoured way, (4) ? ? ? unrivaled unaffected unknown unsurpassed by man. There will never be such a thing as 'natural weather' again, say such writers, only weather (5) ? ? ? built manufactured allowed organised by global warming.
It is hard to know whether to believe such (6) ? ? ? prophets champions warriors giants of doom, possibly, because what they are saying seems too terrible to be (7) ? ? ? stopped true guessed here .
There are other equally influential scientists who argue that climate, for example, has changed many times over the (8) ? ? ? period again centuries world , and that what we are experiencing now may simply be part of an endless cycle of change, rather than a disaster on a global (9) ? ? ? sense form scale existence .
One cannot help wondering whether these attempts to wish the problem away simply underline the extent (10) ? ? ? to at with for which western industrialised countries are to blame for upsetting the world's (11) ? ? ? future ecology balance population . It is not our fault; they seem to be saying, because everything is all right, really!
One certain fact which is (12) ? ? ? chilling encouraging faultless amusing in its implications, is that there is no longer anywhere on the earth's (13) ? ? ? planet atmosphere anywhere surface , whether in the depths of the oceans or in the polar wastes, which is not (14) ? ? ? full stained breathing perfected by polluted air or (15) ? ? ? even recycled littered bothered with empty cans and bottles. Now we have to come to terms with understanding just what that means, and it is far from easy.
