If the phenomenon of global warming is allowed to continue at the current rate, the human race is likely to be wiped out in about two centuries by disaster if not earlier by a nuclear war, Professor Syed Amir Ahmed Kazmi, former Director General, Pakistan Meteorological Services told The News.
Prof. Kazmi’s theory based on thorough research has been seconded by the renowned British Scientist Dr Stephen Hawking, who advised developed nations while addressing a press briefing in London in 2006 that “they should, within the next 50 years select a suitable planet or star for settlement of the next human race. USA has already taken initiative in this direction. The Kepler Telescope recently launched by National Aeronautics and Space Agency (NASA) for a three-year period is meant to find a similar Earth-like planet in the Milky Way Galaxy with the right temperature and water for the survival of life.”
Prof. Kazmi’s theory has found many distinguished ears as discussion on the theory has been going on in various universities and other organisations that are concerned with the global warming. “Global warming is not a regional phenomena but a global catastrophe. During the last 100 years the Earth’s temperature rose by about one degree Celsius. By the end of the current century, this will go up to three degrees Celsius and by the close of the next century, it is expected to shoot up to well above six degrees Celsius when the carbon dioxide concentration may increase, thus resulting in the physical deterioration of Earth,” Prof. Kazmi explained.

Best scare tactic headline Ping!
Oh, no! Not Earth!
That's where I keep all my stuff!
“...they should, within the next 50 years select a suitable planet or star for settlement of the next human race.”
Kookburgers. Send Tom Cruise, LOL!
I’ve been WAITING for my flying car since 1960. They haven’t even accomplished THAT. *SMIRK*
Good
i have a better prediction for him....pakistan is likely to disappear within 2 years if they don’t stop the taliban.
“Earth likely to disappear in two centuries, warn experts”
***************************
And just when have these bozos been close to right on anything yet?
Never mind!
The whole planet will exploded!
Oh no! we are DOOMED again.
If that’s what it takes for Islam to disappear, so be it. Star Trek will become true.

Two centuries? Well, these jerk offs won’t be around for the ridicule so it is a safe prediction.
ha, you beat me to it
Speaking of Carlin:
The planet has been through a lot worse than us. Been through all kinds of things worse than us. Been through earthquakes, volcanoes, plate tectonics, continental drift, solar flares, sun spots, magnetic storms, the magnetic reversal of the poles...hundreds of thousands of years of bombardment by comets and asteroids and meteors, worldwide floods, tidal waves, worldwide fires, erosion, cosmic rays, recurring ice ages...And we think some plastic bags, and some aluminum cans are going to make a difference?
We’re doomed if we do and doomed if we don’t ; )
And when it does disappear, it will be too late.
