Human beings are not the cause of global warming; however, the emissions produced by mankind since the Industrial Revolution have made global warming worse than it has to be. That means the next ice age will do significantly more damage to civilization than it did in the past. Therefore, in order to bring down the impact of global warming, we should contribute less toxic emissions. That leads to the final reason to produce less toxic emissions—they're toxic! Toxic things are bad for everyone and everything. If it's toxic, we should find a way to replace it with something that isn't toxic or to remove all toxic elements of the product. We don't have to produce carbon dioxide if there's an alternative, so why not have an alternative? Sure, it's costly for research and development, but it's better than being responsible for the end of civilization on this planet.
SUMMARY
• Global warming is natural, periodic, and leads to an ice age.
• We made it worse, so the consequences will be worse.
• To reduce the consequences, we should use alternative fuels that are cleaner.
