Barihawk Posted November 11, 2006 Share Posted November 11, 2006 I heard a while ago that there is a huge opening in the Earth's atmosphere It's been there for hundreds of thousands of years, and naturally widens and closes. Naturalists saw it widening and instantly thought it was our fault. The only real threat humans have posed to the ozone layer was the introduction of CFC molecules in refridgerators that have been banned now world-wide. Like everyone else says, global warming and cooling is a natural occurance and happens all the time (well, compared to the billions of years of Terra's existence. My heart is broken by the terrible loss I have sustained in my old friends and companions and my poor soldiers. Believe me, nothing except a battle lost can be half so melancholy as a battle won. -Sir Arthur Wellesley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueTear Posted November 11, 2006 Share Posted November 11, 2006 Nothing has been done because we have very little control over it. The earth does this all the time. Does what exactly? Heat up, or just release a lot of greenhouse gases? -This message was deviously brought to you by: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
endo Posted November 11, 2006 Share Posted November 11, 2006 I have watched the movie 'The day after tomorrow', I've thought about it and im sure it COULD happen,another ice age :) (and massive natural disasters) Im looking forward to watch another movie called 'The sinking of Japan' another movie regarding the melting of north and south poles due to Global Warming ..very interesting what might happen tomorrow..or the day after tomorrow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barihawk Posted November 11, 2006 Share Posted November 11, 2006 The Day After Tomorrow is the most rediculous movie I have ever seen. Oh yes! Within a DAY not only will 300 foot tidal waves hit every major urban center, they will FREEZE too!

lawrencekill Posted November 11, 2006 Share Posted November 11, 2006 Nothing has been done because we have very little control over it. The earth does this all the time. We can control our greenhouse gases emissions, but then you have to get everybody to do that. Just one person stopping won't help much. The Earth is naturally prepared for this. It will repair itself. It just might cause some drastic events during the process. True in a way. It will repair itself, like the time we found the ozone hole above the antartic, but it does so slowly. It will probably takes quite some years to completely repair the hole, and if we destroy the ozone faster than the earth can repair, well we're screwed arn't we? im more worried about bird flu, global warming we can adapt to eventually. ..Like the SARS "epidemic"? Who even remembers that now? Seriously, I'm starting to think these things are more and more scams to sell placebo medicine and make hundreds of millions of dollars. True, some people arn't showing concern because of several epidemics that weren't epidemics. They believe this is another stupid scnario. The Day After Tomorrow is the most rediculous movie I have ever seen. Oh yes! Within a DAY not only will 300 foot tidal waves hit every major urban center, they will FREEZE too! Is not, I'm sure there are worse movies out there. But according to the time frame it is very inaccurate. Fortunately, things don't happen that fast, first of all the floods involve massive melting of ice at a fast pace even the sun can't do respective from the distance to the earth. Also the "ice", will require quick freezing right after the ice has been melted. Now look at this realistically. Will the polar ice caps suddenly melt from extreme heat, then freeze again with extremely cold temperatures? I doubt that will happen over one day, I doubt even a few years.

Barihawk Posted November 11, 2006 Share Posted November 11, 2006 Lawrencekill, try thousands of years after the flood at 0 degrees Farenheit. Salt water of that immense density would resist flooding for hundreds of years, and to make a solid layer would take thousands.

Zippi08 Posted November 11, 2006 Share Posted November 11, 2006 Well, we won't be doing anything until it actually actually happens, and by that time it'll be too late. Like my friend said the other day, we always say we're going to learn from our mistakes, that we'll be ready for the next disaster, but we will never learn. Judging by the replies, half of us don't even care, and don't even give it a second thought. Don't we even care if our children have to suffer through something we've caused? Gosh, we're just becoming more and more selfish and greedy. Thanks for the sig, Runesmithie :)RIP Steve Irwin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest AshKaYu Posted November 11, 2006 Share Posted November 11, 2006 Something I've noticed, is that it's the adults who don't care. The children are the ones willing to walk that extra mile so that they can live, but the adults I know, are extremely educated on the subject, but don't care. Don't get me wrong, I know quite a few teens who are like "Omgz it's three blocks away drive me", but once educated upon the subject, they walk more. That is what I believe to be the key to the problem, education. Do you know when most kids learn about global warming? Never. Unless they pursue the information themselves, I've yet to meet another kid my age in real life who knew why we shouldn't be driving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-SuperMike- Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 Global warming is happening right now. We only have 9 years left to fix the damage and America isn't doing squat. The polar ice caps are melt due to a large whole in the ozone layer caused by pollution wich is causing the sun to seap thru the ozone and cause the uce tundra to melt. We WILL all die if this is not fixed. 99 Magic achieved in December 2004.99 Cooking achieved in Novemeber 2003.743rd to achieve 80 Dungeoneering.Won over 5.5 Bill staking in partyhats and cash.RSC product account created in 2002.

The hole's been there for thousands of years, and as I said before the only thing we have done to it is introduce CFC molecules which are now banned. In fact, the Ozone Hole has returned to pre-CFC sizes. Where the heck you get 9 years for billions of tons of ice to melt is completely beyond me. Ice Tundra? If the Tundra of the Earth melt, it would be GOOD! Millions of square miles of previously inhospitable earth would be opened up for farming on incredibly fertile soil! Heck, if the US, Canada and Russia worked together, we could grow enough wheat to feed the entire world!

Yes, there is a hole in the ozone. Been there for a while, started from volcanic gases and cow farts (literally). Billions of tons of ice can not melt completely in 100 years, much less 9. Tundra is frozen soil. If you melted it, all would remain is extremely fertile soil. Better?

I say we buy up all that land, strike a deal with a hair-drier company, melt the ice, and then invest into farming the land! This will totally work. Who wants to go halfsies?!

Actually, some governments already do this, though in a different form. They intentionally take out the water from the coastal areas, let it dry for years and eventually it's totally arable land with possibilities of civilised living. But it would be fun to see your ranch anywhere near the north pole 8-) I'd like to ride the polar bear, thanks. Later on, if you can arrange it so, I'd like to harvest some snowflakes for use in my cereals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
