Why is the word Environomics not in the English Dictionary?
English Language
Mu Beta Posted Jun 12, 2007
Because it's a made-up word by namby-pamby left-wingers?

I did vote Labour but no matter what your politics are, we are all going to have to speak the same language if Global Warming is to be overcome!

Mu Beta Posted Jun 12, 2007
And what on Earth gave you the idea that the human race is in any position to overcome global warming?

And you think a religious text is giving you a valid standpoint in a scientific argument, do you?

God Bless You.
I was thinking I was on my own thinking that environomics should be in the English Language.
Is there anyone else that would like to see Environomics in the English Dictionary?
English Language
Mu Beta Posted Jun 13, 2007
Would it make any difference if a pointless compound word was added to the dictionary?

If we are to fix Global Warming we will all have to sing from the same hymn sheet.
Why not see if you can find if your family think its a good Idea or not?

Mu Beta Posted Jun 13, 2007
Given that most of my family a) don't care and b) don't talk to each other, I think that may be fruitless.
Seriously, assuming that the human race is in some position to drastically alter the rise in global warming (which it isn't), what use is a silly piece of vocabulary going to be to us?
