The Great Global Warning Scare of 1977

[guohua]

I recall hearing of "Alternative 3" many, many years ago, but I never saw it. I was always under the impression that it had been a failed pilot for a science fiction series.

My question is: how bad would someone think Earth was going to have to get that they would start colonies on a planet where we can't breath the air, and can't grow food in the dirt? How bad would they think Earth was going to get that they would view that as an appealing alternative?

Now THAT is a scary thought! in the billions of years there has been life on earth, Earth has never gotten that bad, and that makes thinking of Mars as a valid alternative a scary thought indeed!

Another thought, and this is straight out of "Total Recall" - if they could hoodwink some folks into a domed colony on Mars, those folks would be under their COMPLETE control. "You don't wanna do as we say? Fine. No more air for you!"

This movie was Al Gore's Wet dream. My husband said if Gore seen this movie he would not stand and clap but he would stand and Jerk-Off smiling and laughing with Glee!
Earth was going to be unlivable because of melting ice caps and air pollution, all because of Humans!
