Woot! I want to be a paramecium. That sounds pretty sweet.
When you get a Bachelor's degree you think you know everything.When you get a Master's degree you realize that you really don't know anything.When you get a doctorate you realize that neither does anyone else.
I'm going to write this down somewhere on my wall or something. It should spurn me on when working on my assignments for my Bachelors degree! Hehe!My arguements thus far though, have been from a perspective that I *think* I know everything. I suppose that is the big enlightenment that comes with a first degree, but it makes you confident if a little naive perhaps.
Oh, has any of those links done research to include the increased output of the sun, and increase in solar radiation and so on?
*winces* Sorry, vitor, not really supporting your horse:Not exactly. Rising temperatures can disrupt the prevailing wind and water currents on the globe, resulting in major weather pattern change. Carbon dioxide is clear, and cannot act as a "smokescreen". Particulate matter in the atmosphere could lower temperatures (as Krakatoa did), but the issue here is with gases that trap solar radiation, not things that reflect them.
Well, what happens is: The ash, accumulates small particles of water, which doesn't fall as rain as it should. These makes huge and dense cloud, what blocks and reflects sun rays, what doesnt let the area under it be warmed. The changes are on rains, which are lesser, and then... aridity. That's called Global Dimming.
*thinks* Wish I could find the link, but it was a study, showed the suns output has increased around 30%. Forget in how many millions of years.
Plus,the earth doesnt care about it. It will go on and continue to create life. Its only humans that care.
