Ok, I’m not referencing “The Arrival,” but that does make sense.
Last night there was a lower-budget sci-fi movie on, and I was able to catch a few minutes of it. A priest having a crisis of faith was approached by devil-looking creatures and given the power to heal. At one point, one of [...]

Global Warming is caused by an excess of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, right? Gases like Carbon Dioxide… Which we humans breathe out, and trees and plants breathe in. Then the plants produce oxygen, which we breathe in, etc., etc., etc.
And a few years ago, lots of people were up in arms [...]

It would seem pretty lame if humanity refused to clean up its technological act, and became similar to the locust-like creatures in “Independence Day.” If we were to ditch our problem planet and just pick up and go to Mars, what would happen? First we’d terraform, and then after a couple of hundred [...]

Just think: We’re close to developing AI already. If we could build a machine that was smart enough to build smarter versions of itself, at some point one incarnation would be powerful enough to come up with a sure-thing solution to global warming.
When Google changes its name to SkyNet, maybe we could ask [...]

I saw a short segment on television within the past 24 hours detailing how the Mayan civilization existed during a time when the sun’s solar output diminished for some reason. This caused a global cooling trend, which shifted ocean currents, and dried out the Mayan territory. Major droughts eventually lead to cultural devastation.
So [...]

Sign of global warming?
I’ve read that we’re supposed to get lots and lots of droughts, to the point that we’re all clamoring for limited resources, and then oil peaks and the economy crashes. Then all governments collapse and widespread riots ensue.
And then we get superpowers.
But seriously, could the current droughts be connected with worse [...]

Today I read on Yahoo that Global Warming will likely change the landscape of California. It will expand the dry areas, and warm old ski resorts.
But what if it makes the ocean rise so much that California becomes submerged? If that happens, the it really will “fall off.”
Maybe all those fears about California [...]

I recently heard a Presidential candidate (it might have been John McCain) say that if we’re wrong about Global Warming, we’ll develop cleaner technology without really needing it. But if we’re right, and take no action, the world will be in a horrible predicament.
So the point is, if we must be wrong, let’s be [...]

It’s funny how “Go Green” has become the catchphrase of the “Save Our Planet” movement. There’s information about how if we don’t save our planet, the sky will turn green. So either way we’re going green.
Apparently, the CO2 in the atmosphere and a combination of other factors will all contribute to changes that [...]

Yahoo had a great article on global warming with a lot of information. Basically, the rest of the world wants to lower emissions, but the U.S. thinks a strong economy with new technologies is the way to go. People are saying the U.S. is isolated in its ideas, but U.S. representatives deny that.
One [...]
