OZONE HOLE OH NOS

[lightdarkness]

What true? ozone layer depleting in 40 years? BS

we are working on mending it
in recent years it has decresed, however exetremly minimal

[kineom34]

Ok, throwing back to the very beginning, talking about the CHC in the atmosphere. I would think that if that were to be released in the atmosphere it would react differently than just plan C, because I wouldn't think it'd be able to form the same bonds, would it?

[lightdarkness]

very true
but CHC's are banned now
so, it will slowly decrease...

here is the much awaited illustration- i know all of you have sat nervously on the edge of your seats for it:

lupin
nice representation of the solar system
the fact is as the sun grows the outter planets will become more and more habbitable, we will eventually live on pluto, then to the solar systems beyond..

Live on pluto? It won't happen. Do you know how far away pluto is? 6,000,000,000 miles away from us The suns not gonna get that big.

Of course, we'd also have to develop a faster mode of travel. Currently, we might be able to go...what, 25000 mph in space with a space shuttle? it would take 25 years to get there(just guessing)

We'd have to be traveling near the speed of light...it would then take about 10 hours to reach pluto.

As for the ozone...were just screwing ourselfs over really. With the cutting of the rainforest, and the gasses being pumped into the atmosphere by big coorps that produce shit we can't live without, we're screwed. Yea...i'd say in 200 years we'll see why.

Yea...were doing stuff to slow down the process, but I doubt it will be stopped.

Well the problem is, the current generation is causing most of the problems, and they don't care that they're giving us a crap world to live in. They're not gonna be here when global warming starts getting serious. They're not gonna be here when, you know, the government starts rationing water or something. They need to stop being so damn selfish and full of themselves, and realize that there are other people on this world, too.

.03%, did you get that, its gonna take a hell of a long time for global warming to really start when our CO2 level is .03% right now

[Anticrombie0909]

But makaveli, that .03 is a very carefully balanced equilibrium. .03 might be extremely high for what it normally is. Maybe once it gets to 1% there will be dire side effects. Listen, .03% sounds like very little, but with the hundreds of millions of gallons of atmosphere we have, its really quite a lot. And like I keep saying, once we deplete our rainforests, that level will rise dramatically.

[lightdarkness]

and you may be forgetting
this might not affect all of us here now, but it will effect our future generations, our kids and grandkids, think of the future, and stop living in the past, we fucked up our ozone, well now lets fix it, stop cutting down the rainforests, stop releasing CFC's and lets make it so we can inhabit earth for generations to come.

true......but we can't blame each other on this subject because haven't we all caused damage to the ozone layer.....by now that ozone should have enough holes to look like swiss cheese lol.....but the ozone may not be the answer to the world ending it could be destruction through war and terriost attacks........AHHH EVERYBODY RUN! j/p
