We are a virus, but the UN's food regulation won't change that much.

If you put all the black asphalt in the world in one country it would most likely fill the country and there would appear to be a large black global warming pad if seen from space.
I wirte about these kinds of things at my weblog about the future of the earth and mankind. I have entitled it Future-Forecast
You should check it out if you are interested in these types of things I love to write about the future. But hopefully will last longer than 30 years, as far as the animals they may dissappear.
Only those species who are able to adapt to living on the same planet with us will live through this all, the next evolutionary stage of the earth will begin. |
C'mon now, asphalt helping global warming? Sure the color black absorbs more electromagnetic radiation then any other color, but it's not going to help global warming.
HOWEVER. The incredible amount of roads/parking lots we are putting in are hurting our rivers/streams/drainage. Flash floods and drainage are going to be a fucking serious problem in the future.

- Asteroid impacts producing craters less than 100km wide: over 50, the great majority not associated with significant extinctions.

We can't say for sure what happened, but to claim with such certainty that they were wiped out by only one of the theories theory is a bit unprofessional. (and dare I say....unscientific!)
Other then that It's a neat article. |
Agreed completely
