FIRST in FUTURE

[RoboMadi]

While i was writing this thread, i thought about where is FIRST going, and whats its gonna be like to be with FIRST after a decade or so.
While i was thinking about it, i came across this thread.
It doesn't take longer than a sec to realize that FIRST and the future global warming is related. Last post on that thread was in 2004. A lot has changed between now and then.
Global Warming and its fate is approaching human kind faster than predicted. Theoretically it's been proved that by 2050, world will be devastated by the consequences of Global Warming. There is a great chance by 2020 for the European Continent to go under Ice Age. Recently I've watched two documentaries, Inconvenient Truth and Future Storms. I was still not convinced so i actually went to the Smithsonian Research Library and Data Center and search for the research that have been done on the topic; my eyes really popped out on couple of stuff.
In 1996, when the debate over the Global Warming began, a lot of scientist actually predicted that hurricanes like Katrina can wipe out cities like New Orleans, New York, Boston, DC etc by the end on 21st century. It was simply shocking.
If we look at the CO2 levels in earth atmosphere right now, its easy to say that we have to face the consequences of Global Warming, but the only thing we can do about is to control how extreme they can be.

The point I'm trying to make over here is that by the time I'll be 50-60, world will be devastated by this. Not only me, every one will be a victim. Katrina caused a lot of damage in Trade Market. Now think of tens or hundreds of Katrina's. That will totally ruin the market. That means that there will be no funding or sponsoring for FIRST events or organization all together.
FIRST has been preparing us for this time. We are the one's who have to think and figure out the solutions for this problem. Thats what i would like to hear from you. What do you think is a solid solution to prevent FIRST from the global warming and its consequences? Remember its a dependency issue, and FIRST rely on a lot of dependent resources to provide us the Hardest Fun.
