The earth goes through natural climate change and I don't think there's much we can do to battle nature. We probably don't help as human being with our messy throw away lifestyles but, in my mere opinion we probably have cleaner air now than we did back when industries were choking the likes of London up with smog. Something we don't see today.

@Thingschange4444 Comparing today to the filthiest no money in the planets history isn't that great of a metric.

@Thingschange4444 You are absolutely correct. Since the end of Communism in Europe for example acid rain has stopped in Poland and you can drink water from the tap in Czech Republic and Slovakia.
And WHO today is the greatest polluter in the world? CHINA!

It makes perfect t sense if you think about it.@Abrienda @Thingschange4444
the peak of the 1800s industrial revolution was the filthiest point in history. To say were doing less polluting now than we did then is stupid and missing the goal. It's not a sign of doing well or being clean by any means. Nor does pollution ever really go anywhere but into the ground. To say we are polluting less than we did in 1880 isn't really setting a good bar. Its like pissing on a muddy truck and saying look it us cleaner now.

@Abrienda Yeah it's just a matter of opinion. He's entitled to his opinion. But so is everyone else. I agree with ur initial comment BTW
