Earth Might Become Uninhabitable In 300 Years, Research


Reveals
May 15th, 2010 - 6:47 pm ICT by GD -

By Gina Gomez
Sydney, May 15, (THAINDIAN NEWS) The
ramifications that climate change can possible have on
humans seems to be much more severe than what was
previously comprehended. A recent research has revealed
that in the due course of time climatic changes might
make human habitation impossible on Earth as it would
be too hot for humans to survive. The revelations of the
study which was published in one of the most esteemed
journals, Proceedings of the National Academy of
Sciences recently stated that the climatic changes would
transform the conditions on Earth in such an
unprecedented manner that humans would not be able to
adapt or survive in it in less that three centuries

The research about the consequences that climatic changes might have on humans was carried out by scientists of United States’
Purdue University as well as University of New South Wales in Australia. During the research, the scientists evaluated the most
extreme ‘wet bulb’ temperature that humans are able endure and found out that the highest endurable temperature by humans
could easily be crossed in the climatic conditions that might prevail on Earth in the future.

In the research, it has been stated that the global warming of an estimated seven degrees Celsius might bring the habitability of
many parts of the planet under question while warming by 11-12 degrees the regions would be rendered inhabitable which would
include majority of the regions where human population is distributed. Professor Steven Sherwood who was one of the
researchers in the study later revealed that chances of Earth heating up to seven degrees in this century is unlikely, but by 2300
things might take a drastic turn which is a major cause of concern.

the people making these preditions are all idiots like Al Gore, the world is more apt to be to cold than to warm given that
there is more than likly going to be more volcanic activity that will put great amount of ash into the upper atmosphere and
block the sun and cause another ice age.

Mr. Tichenor’s opinions about climate change might be more credbile if he knew how to spell words such as “too” and
“likely.” The fact that he does not suggests something about the kind of people who dismiss the scientists with which they
disagree as “all idiots.” We may have as much to fear from overheated human beings as we do from an overheated planet.

Why for the life of me isn’t any of these climate alarmist pushing global cooling? The earth has cooled 1 degree in the last
12 years. There’s ups and downs to cyclical changes, so why not just push what is the current trend. Were on a cooling
cycle. There will be no need to fudge data or destroy emails. It will help you at least not look like “total Idiots”. I’d be
more convinced of being eaten by an ever increasing polar bear population!!

I am tired of these idiots screaming global warming. Maybe if they would have pulled their heads out of their asses when
they were in science class back in school they would have learned that the earth has had several ice ages.The earth emerged
from the last one just over 10,000 years ago. This would suggest that the earth goes thru warming and cooling cycles. And
that the earth is in a warming cycle. It started long before we were using fossil fuels. This is a natural cycle for the earth
and there is nothing that we can do about it. We must either adapt or face extinction like every other species that has ever
been on the planet
We may have accelerated the process by a year or two if that. Al Gore and all the other Eco fear mongers should go back to
school. Maybe they should read this quote and they get a life. ” Remember it is better to keep your mouth shut and let
people think your an idiot than to open your mouth and erase all doubt!!!”

Mr Meyers
It is nice that there is a spelling police watching the site as to my “idiots” remark did you take note of how many of the
comments submitted agree with my theory.
