Earth Tipping Point Study In Nature Journal Predicts Disturbing And Unpredictable Changes Posted: 06/07/2012 11:36 am Updated: 06/07/2012 11:20 pm
Earth is rapidly headed toward a catastrophic breakdown if humans don't get their act together, according to an international group of scientists.
Writing Wednesday (June 6) in the journal Nature, the researchers warn that the world is headed toward a tipping point marked by extinctions and unpredictable changes on a scale not seen since the glaciers retreated 12,000 years ago.
"There is a very high possibility that by the end of the century, the Earth is going to be a very different place," study researcher Anthony Barnosky told LiveScience. Barnosky, a professor of integrative biology from the University of California, Berkeley, joined a group of 17 other scientists to warn that this new planet might not be a pleasant place to live.
"You can envision these state changes as a fast period of adjustment where we get pushed through the eye of the needle," Barnosky said. "As we're going through the eye of the needle, that's when we see political strife, economic strife, war and famine." ...........................>>>>.................>>>>....................http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/06/07/earth-tipping-point-study_n_1577835.html

If government can raise taxes and they can hire hundreds of thousands of bureaucrats then we can avert the disaster, but it will mean we will have to change our ways and pay government much, much more. Then we will be safe.

Is it the end of the world already? Man how time fly's.
No, it's been revised.
Right now, we are supposed to be buried under 2 miles of ice, as per the predictions of a 'new ice age' made in the 70's. Since that didn't come true, 'global warming' was next up in the 90's. It was shown that scientists faked the data and the 'hockey stick' was proven to be (lol) false.
So now the next scam is looking like 'extinction events' and 'unpredictable changes' (whatever that is) and instead of putting it in a 50 year timeline, they are going to put it on a 100 year timeline.
In another 20 years. another 'harbinger of doom' prediction will be made.

I'm surprised Tom didn't turn this into GWB's fault.

Actually -- If the Earth collides with the thick skull of a nayboob then it is all too apparent that the Earth may indeed shatter -- and have a catastrophic breakdown.

Buck is correct...........the folks in the 70's were told that in just a few short decades...the united states would be experiencing an ICE AGE!!!
So now...after a few short decades....the greenie liberal nut jobs are screaming 'the sky is falling' with GLOBAL WARMING!!!
The liberal greenies are just trying to brainwash the younger generation with this fear tactic bullcrap. But thank God that the older generation, coupled with the 'information highway' (the internet) they can see for themselves what a generated scam this all is!

I agree... don't believe the 'liberal greenies' and I agree... use the internet to see for yourself the truth about Climate Change: How about NASA?

Bumbler doesn't believe the 'Liberal greenies'... He doesn't believe in "government"... He doesn't believe the competence of a group who put a man on the moon... Bumbler doesn't believe in science...
He only believes his own agenda.
