		<description>Eh, human-caused &quot;climate change&quot; is a bunch of politically-charged junk science.  The sun has a far larger effect on climate than we ever will, global nuclear holocaust aside.

That said, I recycle, pick up trash as I walk by, and try to conserve power.  It&#039;s smart on a local scale, which may be the most important thing in the first place.  We really can&#039;t do much if the sun hiccups or the earth coughs up another Pompeii or Mt. St. Helens (which put me in the hospital for a week), it&#039;s too large scale.  We&#039;re just not that powerful, for good or for ill.  We can and do all too often make our own living space a mess, though, and we *can* do something about that.  It&#039;s common courtesy, if nothing else.

The Day After Tomorrow has some great visual effects... but the wolves look lame, and the science behind it is awful.  Most laughable are the evil freezing storm supercells and the ice chasing the kids in the library, conveniently stopped by a door like any old movie monster.
