No offense, but some people here are really ignorant or more so being stupid about contagious diseases that have the potential of becoming pandemics. So far, the official statistics say that MORE THAN HALF of the people infected with the Swine flu died! And that is not just the old and the weak. Healthy people. Have you been sick with the flu recently? Then you do you know how fast flu spreads. During the Spanish flu more 1 billion people were infected and 30 million died! The Black Death pandemic wiped out MORE THAN HALF the population of Europe at the time! If those things are not contained they can spread extremely quickly among populations. A pandemic at our time would be a global disaster of unprecedented scale!
Personally, I don't think global warming should even be considered as the main issue here. Boisterous, garish and excessive waste of natural resources is the truly disgusting part. It is equivalent to lighting cigars with $100 bills just because you can, while people around don't have enough money to buy their daily bread. To me its just an indicator of baseness and incivility.
So is living by your definition.
