So we will not make it the 9.27 years we have left to stop global climate change because we will be wiped out by an asteroid? Damn!
In that case, I am buying a pack of Luckies, some 18 -year-old Scotch, and a Hemicuda.
Climate change is a joke. CO2 is good for the world. We have had more of it before. And we have had less of it. We have been warmer and we have been colder. Tropical plant fossils have been found in northern Russia and Northern Canada. And ice caps went down to the Mediterranean sea. There aren’t more or less creatures now. There are different numbers of creatures and different types of creatures. And those creatures go extinct all the time. Every single year.
But when a big rock hits the earth, watch out. Things change immediately. And for a long time. And a big rock will hit the earth sooner or later. Look at Mars. That was a much bigger planet with water and an atmosphere. Now its a frozen rock. In fact it could have been the source of life on earth. But now its a frozen rock missing a large chunk with almost no atmosphere. Something hit it.
