So not only are SUV's increasing the temperature, they're also increasing air pressure.

Will we be drowned or crushed first?

Only Al Gore knows for sure.

Would be interesting to see how they compensated for the fact that the air trapped in the Lava was superhot and expanded as well as stripped of most of it’s hydrogen and oxygen.

Funny, the pterodactyl couldn't have flown unless the density was about 4x what it is today.

So a species "evolved" with useless wings? Pfftttt...

Pre-deluvian. The atmosphere was more oxygen rich. Less ultraviolet rays penetrated due to atmospheric water vapor. People lived much longer lives then.

What with practically every artifact found being dug up, dust from outer space falling by the mega-tons every year, I’d say the Earth diameter was much smaller eons ago also.

I recall that the prevailing theory was that the Earth built an atmosphere over time. This finding tends to support that notion.

Whole lot of “suggest” going on. The title is trying to “show” the way.

Carbon taxes should be retroactive over the 2.7 billion year life of the ancient air bubbles. At a buck a day, that is $2.7 billion. Heck, I could live well on that. AL Gore, eat my shorts.
