      :sick: http://science.netscape.com/story/2007/04/05/southwest-forecast-expect-90-years-of-drought/ :sick:

      The Plague: Dust Bowl (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dust_bowl) is back, after its 80 dormancy!! And it's back to ravage America…

      Human-induced change in Earth's atmosphere will leave the American Southwest in perpetual drought for the next 90 years

      erm… :unsure:

        It's experiencing drought yet the population in the Southwest increases.

        Meh… the more to experience the Dust Bowl (I wonder who it was that came up with that name).

          Human interference with the environment to cause a major earthquake in the Tokyo region sometime during the next 50 years.

              We're all gonna die 22 December, 2012. It's not news, though; I read it in the year 614 BC.

                  I hope you don't seriously believe that a picture of a bunch of characters representing constellations in a sinking boat with a tree means the exact date of the end of the world.

                  If you do, this spoiler's for you.

                    I'm not worried about mythical earthquakes, I'm worried about that asteroid that heading for our planet and is expcted to come close or hit around that time.

                    Good news = those who survive the world's destruction will have a vast, new source of ore and minerals.

                      Oh, that. Yeah, that asteriod. I look forward to December 22 2012 being the day that I get struck by lightning and win the lottery.

                                  The topic title made it seem like it meant the entire US, not just the Southwest. I did get a little laught though from hearing that there will be a drought, while it's been snowing where I'm at today.

                                        I believe there's a few asteroids on near miss/possible impact courses with us. And although it makes a great headline (or shitty popcorn summer flick or two) there are actually methods already in place and being researched regarding asteroid defense by creating a field around it to redirect it. I shit you not. I made a post about it a few months ago in the Random News thread.

                                        Not if you are in a complete vaccume. :happy:

                                        Yes, since humans stopped using space suits, space travel has been much easier.

                                        No matter where you go, there you are.

                                          The asteroid will strike Smackover, Arkansas.

                                              Not if you are in a complete vaccume. :happy:

                                              You will neither continue living, nor cease to live.

                                              really, how does that work?

                                                            @Greg:

                                                            I believe there's a few asteroids on near miss/possible impact courses with us. And although it makes a great headline (or shitty popcorn summer flick or two) there are actually methods already in place and being researched regarding asteroid defense by creating a field around it to redirect it. I shit you not. I made a post about it a few months ago in the Random News thread.

                                                            I'm pretty sure that there isn't any known asteroids which could cause a real threat, I haven't followed science press in a while though, but it is an interesting scenarion even in it's unlikeness. The current problem is that generally our space technology isn't very reliable - it's not rare that something goes wrong - but it isn't something which couldn't be worked out in future. Still, it's very unlikely to happen. And it's not caused by us. Unlike screwing atmosphere.

                                                                  the only way that'd work is if texans actually gave a shit about california's water

                                                                    @Greg:

                                                                    I believe there's a few asteroids on near miss/possible impact courses with us. And although it makes a great headline (or shitty popcorn summer flick or two) there are actually methods already in place and being researched regarding asteroid defense by creating a field around it to redirect it. I shit you not. I made a post about it a few months ago in the Random News thread.

                                                                    $12,000 and two year's worth my life have taught me that such isn't a likely scenario. You've got the religious fanatics (Rapturists) on one side of the political equation who would love for a natural disaster to happen since it's effectively a jump-start to the apocalypse, and something like that would require joint effort by multiple countries and the countries capable of doing it don't like each other.

                                                                    Best course of action is to use nuclear weapons to divert the asteroid, but people will be afraid of nuke launching and there's no guarantee that won't just break the asteroid up into smaller pieces that can hit multiple areas of the globe.

                                                                    Which could cause tsunamis or earthquakes as predicted in myth. Personally, I'd like to see the HAB theory come into effect, making Africa the haven of the world, or alternatively global warming could drown the US, freeze Europe and thaw Siberia.

                                                                    Either way, the Russians or Africans win. In the case of the asteroid, it's the penguins (I'm looking at you, ocean!). 😐
