Well the original post was about not cutting down so many trees, or perhaps planting them. The simple fact is, it doesn't matter one bit if al gore or anyone else lied, as in the amazon for example, the lungs of the planet are being slashed and burned for cattle pasture. And this is happening everywhere in the tropics.
The fact is, humans are pumping exponentially more carbon and other pollutants into the air (esp. China) each decade, meanwhile we destroy the woody forests which is our only hope of controlling levels of these gases. Trees breathe carbon and exhale oxygen, it's a perfect symbiosis with us humans, there's a balancing act there.

I will never dispute a person's own experience.

I find more often than not if someone can not find what they are looking for then often they are looking in the wrong place and attracted by things that should signal you that a person has different values and behaviors than will ultimately make you very unhappy happy in the long run.

Generally people who are loyal, honest, and can maintain a long term relationship demonstrate that in their day to day lifestyle.

They have good family relationships, they stuck it out in school, they hold down a job, they pay their bills, and live with in their means. They use their brains and personality to catch you and keep you. There sexuality is reserved and the icing on the cake not the whole flavor of the minute.

Many years I have worked with younger vets and asked them what they really wanted? What would they want to come home too after the new wears off; say a year, five years, even when twenty years goes by? Did they see that in the women they were dating? I ask them are the words and actions that are falling out of that person the ones you will be able to live with? Do you even LIKE that person?

You don't pick a woman like you pick a running buddy. You don't pick a woman because she is a right now gal. And if she clearly doesn't like you the person she isn't ever going to stick around just because you help her or entertain her for the moment.

Chances are the woman that will make you happiest is someone you work with, lives in your neighborhood, and even knows the significant people in your life. She will be the one who remembers your work routines, your Momma or kids birthday, and tells you when you forget to roll the window up on your car door. It will be the little things that show she is considerate and not making you a slave to making her the center of the world. She isn't a Princess, and she might not even be picture perfect, but the words Thank You, please, may I help, and no are part of her da to day
vocabulary.

You want a woman with standards look for the standards then look at the woman and I bet money you will see plenty of "keepers".

They are certainly out in the world and even well represented her on Mingle. Good luck.

P.S. This guide is not gender specific . It applies just as well to men.
