Scientists Discuss Replicating Volcano’s Effect to Cool Climate

[Zakeet]

Triggering an Ice Age in order to halt Global Warming ... another low from the incredibly stupid Looney Left.

[Red Badger]

I heard that a couple of scientists actually want to drill through the earth’s mantle..............

[Tax Government]

May I suggest a series of hydrogen bombs buried deeper and deeper under Yellowstone, to help get sulfur in a hurry? :)

[steelyourfaith]

 

Beam me to Planet Gore !

[Loud Mime]

The idea is to artificially re-create the effects of volcanic eruptions to temporarily cool the planet.

Great idea! What country should we start with?

[gorush]

They just need a giant spaceship full of water...go up to the sun and douse part of it. If it’s too hot to get close enough, wait until night.

[I Buried My Guns]

May I also suggest viewing the movie "Total Recall"?

The final scenes should be a big help.

[visualops]

My co-worker told me earlier that snow had been reported in a nearby town. This is upstate SC. It never snows this time of year. You might see some in January or February, but usually rain or ice, as we are south of the snow line.
And these fracking morons want to block out the sun.
Lord, help us.

[Tax Government]

Will do; thank you.

[MrB]

I wonder if these morons thought through to what would occur on the earth if they DID get it to cool off...

mass starvation, etc.

But, then again, most of these folks are simply anti-human anyway.

[lonestar67]

There are numerous technical fixes to alleged causes of global warming, but such speculators miss the point.

Environmentalists are not really concerned with the environment, they are concerned with controlling the lives of others.

Simple solutions simply complicate their plans to control the global economy and enrich themselves in the process.

[ctdonath2]

It’s snowing in Georgia right now. The Earth doesn’t need someone trying to turn the thermostat lower.

[arthurus]

The earth has been cooling for a decade now. What do they want? Ice Age Now!?

Actually I know the answere here. The "scientists" want billions of dollars of grants and the politicians want unlimited power and unlmited opportunities for corruption.

[reagan_fanatic]

If these scientists are the best and brightest we can offer, we’re in deep, deep doo-doo.

[ScreamingFist]

In 2006, Nobel Prize-winning chemist Paul Crutzen and National Center for Atmospheric Research Senior Scientist Tom Wigley suggested that “geo-engineering” might be used as a quick, but temporary, remedy for global warming

The Nobel prize, didn't they give that to Al Gore for a slide show presentation.....

Apparently, science is not what it used to be.....

[visualops]

If they weren’t so frighteningly serious it would be very funny.

[DManA]

How about Germany?

He [Crutzen] currently works at the Department of Atmospheric Chemistry at the Max Planck Institute for Chemistry,[2] in Mainz, Germany

[TheWasteLand]

The AMS, however, indicated that it is worried that geo-engineering of this type has the potential to create more problems than it solves.

No, really? Blocking the sun for a few years has the potential to create problems? Science!

[GOP_Party_Animal]

How about we gather up all the enviro-nuts, dump them in the volcano, followed by some hydrogen bombs?
It's been done before, so I know it works.

[visualops]

generated much interest in the press

Yeah, that's who I always turn to for the best ideas in science //rolls eyes//
