Global Warming and Narnia
By Flowers Bloom
I just finished watching the movie The Chronicles of Narnia, and I am appalled at the damage done by so few humans. It’s shocking to see the devastating effect that just four children bring to the world.
We have over six billion people inhabiting our Earth Mother, and it is no wonder that Gaia is rebelling with floods, hurricanes, tsunamis, and other natural disasters at her disposal.
First we see Lucy enter Narnia, and meet a charming faun named Mr. Tumnus. He plays beautiful music for her, unaware of the threat that she and her siblings pose to his beautiful land. Then her brother meets with the Queen and very greedily demands tasty treats from her. In spite of his crude manner, she complies with his wishes.
Finally, all four Pevensie children make their way to Narnia. We see a wintery paradise transformed into a sub-tropical wasteland at an astonishing rate. I could not beleive the speed with which global warming occured just based on the mere presence of 4 children.
Imagine what sort of damage would be done by billions of humans, and their gas guzzling SUVs. I’m sure that global warming would render Narnia uninhabitable in just days.
Even still, people refuse to acknowledge the very real threat of global warming. In just a short time the rivers and lakes began to melt. Within days, there was no more snow or ice at all. Plants sprouted, and flowers bloomed, which all seems wonderful and pretty to those of us who are used to such things, but the inhabitants of Narnia must have felt very frightened by the sudden warming trend.
The children invade this foreign land, and depose it’s rightful ruler. What makes them so arrogant as to think that the people of Narnia do not like the way that they live? They look at this different and strange land, and decide that they can make it better. What makes them the judge of what is better?
I find it all very apalling, even as we struggle with our own debate about the effects of global warming. Perhaps, Remulak MoxArgon should take heed. If supposedly “innocent” children can wreak such havok, how can he possibly think he stands a chance against billions of Earth Mother raping humans?
I think that perhaps the most frightening thing of all was that after laying waste to the now desolate Narnia, the children go back through the wardrobe, and return to the very moment at which they had initially entered.
Do they think to consider the unmitigated disaster they have left behind in the once frozen and beautiful Narnia? Most likely not. The movie doesn’t address this serious issue. It’s typical of human nature to leave behind the mess, and take no personal responsibility.
But what of the creatures of Narnia? They are left to fend for themselves, their land transformed, and their ruler deposed. Do the Pevensies care about them? Do you?

Uhhh, no. I don’t care about the creatures of Narnia. Hell, I barely care about the creatures of Earth. What, with the carribou of Alaska, and the fish of the Gulf oppressing so much oil. That oil needs to be free to be used for stealing oil from other countries.

Yeah, Flowers, and I think you might want to take note of the fact that Narnia is fictional.

No offense, but… this is either ajoke, or you are the dumbest person in existence. The whiole point of Narnia is that the Winter was the wasteland. The Queen was actually the White Witch, and was evil, and the rightful ruler was actually the Lion. The kids were supposed to sav eNarnia from the frozen wasteland.
So, please… tell me this is a joke. Please… if this is serious, then I am truly worried about the furtue of the human race.

The global population is doubling every 50 years. Imagine cloaning every city and the world and doubling the amount of CO2 released into our atomosphere. It may not seem as bad now, but we need to get our heads out of the near future and starting thinking long term goals

[...] This year, instead of going to the beach in the middle of October, I was pulling the winter coat out of storage. The temperature hardly ever gets above 45 degrees. The Global Warming People’s Temple Cult and Inquisition won’t see any of this as relevant. They’ll just charge me again with heresy for daring to question the validity of human caused Global Warming.
