Global Warming.

[DavidG]

Global warming is making the place hotter.
A Nuke war could bring on an ice age due to the dust in the atmosphere.

????? Why not combine the two to balance the effects.

Pump dust into the upper atmosphere to reduce the global warming effect.

Oz sure has enough bull dust to supply the rest of the world and Canberra has enough hot air to get the dust up there.

[DJ’s Timber]

Nuh, it will never happen , the politicans will need to do a study first and they would deny that they have hot air anyway

The very same story was in the Melbourne Age on the weekend, the yanks are thinking of doing the reflective particle thing if things get too hot on earth.

you could build a super large umbrella to shade the cities l see it on TV
a rich guy Mr Burns was going to do it

[ozwinner]

The same thing was in the same story in the Mel Age, and yep the Yanks are thinking of doing it.

But would it not be cheaper to just nuke part of the US.

[SPIRIT]

hay we could wright a report get paid heaps like anyone read them anyway,
#1 BUILD A BIG BOAT (JUST IN CASE)

[corbs]

Mirrors are reflective... mirrors are made of glass... when sand is super heated it turns to glass... there is lots of sand in the middle east... conclusion, nuke the middle east and turn it into a big mirror? Just a thought, although I think the greenies may have a problem with the environmental impact study reports.

[NewLou]

WHat ever the case its our poor old childrens children that are gonna be left with the legasy of our decisions

I pity em and am truely ashamed of being a part of the generation that has done nothing BUT could have saved the world.

Just goes to show how important making a buck is....................Pity the decision makers have their heads so far up >>>>> <<<<< that they'll put a multinationals pay cheque before their own great great grandchildren

SHAME SHAME SHAME!

Lucky I can run to my SHed n hide from it all

[Honorary Bloke]

But would it not be cheaper to just nuke part of the US.

Yes, if I get to choose which part.

[Daddles]

Yes, if I get to choose which part.

It's okay Bob, we'd make they didn't miss your place

look good on the insurance claim wouldn't it

I have been having a rather interesting discussion on another website with some boffins. There are some questions to be answered in relation to exactly what is causing global warming. new information seems to contridict the basic tenent that Man is responsible for global warming or even the concept of accellerated warming.

There have been periods in the earths history when the earth has been much warmer than now and much warmer than any of the climate models have predicted.

What these boffins are saying is that global warming is happening but it is a natural cycle and there aint nothin we can do about it.

I'm not sufficiantly versed to argue the point. I just thought you ought to know that there are quite a few people aut there who arnt convinced.

Current research seems to indicate indisputable increase in average temperatures. But it didn't start anytime recently. More like a few hundred years ago, at the onset of industrial revolution.

But, I have a problem with the alarums about sea level rise. I searched the weird wild web for some arithmetic supporting the prediction, and came up dry (so to speak). If they're including melting of floating icebergs, sorry, 'taint so; when ice in a container melts, the water level doesn't rise - weight has to stay constant after all. Only landlocked glaciers can contribute. Thermal expansion of ocean water? I don't think there'd be enough of an effect. Still looking for some real arithmetic, not just statistical projections.

Joe,

Aren't you confusing weight with specific gravity?, if you place ice in a container of water I would of thought the level of the water has to rise as the ice melts. The volume of ice above the water line turns to liquid and its new specific gravity has it settling in with the water.

In any case isn't it the polar ice caps melting thta is the problem, and a fair bit of that ice is sitting on land not bobbing around in the sea.
