What about the statistics coming straight from MSNBC news telling us that 2006 was a world-record in forest fires? Do these mean anything to you?
Yup. It means we're mismanaging our resources. That mismanagement and overexploitation will cause lots of species to go extinct and lots of people to die young, mostly very young. It will require all the science and technology we can possibly wisely apply to ease the pain caused by our messups.
But praying won't help much.
