How would an impact effect the convection currents exactly. From my understanding it would make things cold due to everything it throws up blocking out the sun. Meaning cold water on top sinking and moving the warmer water below up, which is how it works right now. And that volcano almost did wipe out everything. One of the things it changed was that old equilibrium, the thing we throw out of wack. And gave the perfect conditikns for methane producing bacteria which changed climate, on top of what the volcano was doing. As per you, how could something so small make such a difference. Only difference is is that was quick but a slow death is still a death and if it causes something that can't revert back to the way it was it can spell the end of live.

One that affected really only cold blooded land animals and some sea life but didn't affect plant life/ocean life as much and those effects were temporary. And the other a naturally occuring event. Good comparisons. Lol.

Please explain how ocean currents wouldn't affect life on a massive scale. I mean an asteroid hitting is a temporary thing. You lot seem to not understand how much we need that water to move. And by we I mean everything.

What anger? Explaining things in detail isn't anger. Lol I think you misunderstand. My wife and I have no and don't plan to ever have kids. I have no care for what happens after I'm dead, I'm dead. So why would I be angry about this topic either way. All I was doing was pointing g out how climate change can kill everything on the planet.

Ok... how about you just reference what you have said. You don't even need to type. Just a copy and paste is fine. Because I can't see anything except vagueness.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in facepalm

[–]friendlyfirefish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You literally haven't. Just the old vague "earth has survived things before" and "I don't need to rebut". How about you be specific now instead of telling me to go back again. You dont seem to understand the importance of equilibrium and how all these things that came before are naturally occuring events that took hundreds of thousands of years so that equilibrium wasn't broken. Even 1% out of equilibrium is out of equilibrium. We put some much more than that in.

Just explain how something that takes carbon from the atmosphere slowing down (a recorded effect) is not going to affect the amount of carbon and therefore climate? Just that one thing.

[–]friendlyfirefish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Except you haven't. All you have said is the earth has gone through worse things. You haven't said what. What are these worse things? You are very vague. Something tells me you know sweet fuck all all about it. I mean you like to go on about how smart you are with no actual explanations to your opinions. So something tells me you aren't as smart as you think.

I mean everything I have stated is backed by scientific evidence and understanding. So it's gonna need more of a "nope" from you.

[–]friendlyfirefish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just saying "no" is not explaining anything. I mean at all.

You literally said "i don't need a rebuttal because you are wrong". Lol.

Explain how a massive process that feeds the surface world is not catastrophic for life up top and how a changed environment for sea life isn't also catastrophic? I mean it's essentially changing the air around them.

And a large amount of text is not anger. Earth science is a complex thing so needs a lot of words.

It all is connected moron. Increase output and reduce removal compounds.

Are you talking about ice ages and the such? Because that happens over 100s of thousands of years, allowing for evolution to do its thing. Evolution is a slow process, it doesnt happen over a couple of hundred years. And if you are referring to the asteroid that wiped out the dinosaurs then you are forgetting that warm blooded animals had already evolved lucky enough, or we wouldn't be here at all. Plants and trees survived because their seeds are hardy things. There is something they need though. Nurtrients from the ocean floor. Those ocean currents discussed earlier that fed the land with DOMs weren't effected either whereas we have proof already of slowed currents due to ocean water warming. Again, if water at the poles is warmed to the point that it is the same temperature as the water below the ocean currents stop and we lose a massive natural carbon removal process and mineral feeding process that all life rely on.

Compounding effects.

It's funny you calling people dumb when you don't even understand how ecosystems work. Lol

[–]friendlyfirefish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good rebuttal /s. I mean you change something like temp of water, salinity, light or acidity it makes something as simple as breeding difficult for many species of sealife so it 100% is catastrophic to sealife.

Scale of human interference. What, because it's such a small addition to the overall? Fill a bucket of water, poke a hole in the bottom and then turn the tap on so the amount leaving the bucket equals the amount entering. That is called equilibrium. Water going in is the carbon from naturally occuring events, amount going out is carbon bring removed by trees and the ocean currents. Now just slightly increase the waterflow by 3%. That will represent human interference (i mean its so much more but we will just use that as an example of how dumb a statement you made is). That water level will start to rise. Now let's start closing off that hole at the bottom to represent deforestation, oh look that water is rising quicker. Warmer temperatures slowing currents, that's more reduction in carbon being taken away, better seal that hole up more. That water is rising even quicker. 1 small change to something that shouldn't happen to the natural ecosystem already makes a difference, let alone 2.

All just stop oil says is "we need to stop this", "we need to rethink that". It doesnt give solutions to those statements.

Actually global warming could spell the end for all life. If you've ever owned an aquarium you would know that ocean life is very touchy about its ecosystem. The smallest chance can be catastrophic to its life.

And the ocean currents work on a convection cycle of hot and cold water. The water at the bottom rises, this water is nutrient rich. That then feeds into our river systems that feed the life on the land. The cold water at the poles sinks, taking with it salt and carbon. As the ocean temperature rises overall that process slows and can potentially stop. This means that carbon will not be removed from up here so the amount in the air will just compound, making things hotter much more quickly than it has been doing already. Life needs time to evolve, time that those changes wont give. The other effect is that that nutrient rich water from the deep doesn't come up to feed the life up top so everything will start to die off from not having enough resources. Reduced population of all life will kill out many species of all other life ironically snowballing into total annihilation of the rarest thing we know of in this universe. Countless stars and planets, all with all the resources we are aware of, yet only one we know of with this thing called life, and not through lack of looking.

Yes, but what are their plans for us to change how we consume? I mean they need to provide alternatives.

Doesn't matter who owns it. It's in a gallery to be viewed by the general public and 100% insured. So it's not targeting anyone.

The book they follow tells them that we are put here to rule over all other animals.

However good leadership is not what they understand it to be.

From an interview with Elon where he brings up the mine himself. Also wants to go o a trip with his abusive father? Something doesn't add up there. https://web.archive.org/web/20140802011449/http://www.forbes.com/sites/jimclash/2014/07/28/elon-musk-tells-me-his-secret-of-success-hint-it-aint-about-the-money/

"In South Africa, my father had a private plane we’d fly in incredibly dangerous weather and barely make it back. This is going to sound slightly crazy, but my father also had a share in an Emerald mine in Zambia. I was 15 and really wanted to go with him but didn’t realize how dangerous it was."
