Kinda like.....wait for it....global warming!!
Wait. How were they able to cause global warming without cars? And how were they able to cool down the planet without taxes? No, none of this is adding up.
A proposal in Kalifornia to criminalize giving soda straws to customers by waitstaff unless the customer specifically asks for one. Violations would be subject to up to a $1000 fine and/or a year in jail. This would be to “fight” global warming.
Are they kidding?
Why don’t they just say - Sept. 4, 12800 years ago at 7:23pm...
That would make me believe that they are dead sure of their “facts” too.
Randall Carlson called this a decade ago. I’m glad the academics finally caught up to the amateur.
“How would that start fires?”
Everybody who has seen any of these current Hollywood -asteroid coming to destroy earth- movies knows that!!
First it goes BOOM!!!! And there is a HUGE explosion... toms of flaming debris fly EVERYWHERE.. and then we all burn up and die.
The end. -science.
That’s a huge comet! A body 62 mi in diameter transiting the earth’s atmosphere wouldn’t have enough time to heat up all the way through. I could see the outer surface, maybe tens of feet thick, heating up and exfoliating. But would the entire body heat up enough in that short time to explode the entire body? I suppose it depends on how much ice there is in the comet.
Not global “warming” so it doesn’t count.
And no Hillary insult, I was sure that was it.
Seems to me that athletic shoes would be a bigger contributor to Global Warming than soda straws.
OOPS, I better keep my mouth shut. I will be giving the idiots ideas.
Scary stuff. That was really loud outside in some locations.
The Toba eruption and its volcanic winter is speculated to have nearly wiped out humanity 75,000 years ago.
The historical record indicates that chunks of the comet hit near the Dead Sea
Well, that picture is full of stereotypes.
“... As fires rushed across much of the planets landscape, the smoke and dust clogged the sky and blocked out sunlight. This triggered rapid cooling in the atmosphere,”
This can’t be true because we all know that CO2 causes Global Warming.
How would that start fires?
The tremendous kinetic energy of an object hitting the atmosphere
All that energy is converted to heat - the thermal pulse resulting is similar to that of a nuclear blast
I missed something.
What is it about plastic straws all of a sudden?
Did the CEO of a soda straw company say something mean about Hillary?
As the saying goes... only in California.
