More than 31,000 scientists across the U.S. including more than 9,000 with Ph.D.s have signed a petition rejecting that “global warming” is caused by human production of greenhouse gases. The scientists have also claimed that ‘Mr. Gore’s movie has claims no informed expert endorses’. Take that you liberal goons. I’m going to give you the facts about Earth and global warming

The Earth is 4.54 Billion years old, life formed on Earth about 1 billion years later. Earth is located in a solar system with millions of other solar systems forming the Milky Way Galaxy. In the middle of our solar system is a star you may be familiar with called the Sun. Let’s start by talking about the beginnings of the Earth.

The Earth has gone through many phases in the past 2 billion years. When Earth was first created, there was virtually almost no dry land, but during the past 2 billion years, the total size of land mass has nearly doubled. During the last several hundred million years the surface had continued to reshape itself. The Earth was a very volatile planet in its early stages, as land masses were constantly shifting, forming super continents, then shifting again and then eventually forming the world we know today.

Since 1960 they have discovered that there was severe glacial action between 750 and 580 million years which covered much of the planet in a sheet of ice which this is actually considered the first ice age. Scientists have termed this period “Snowball Earth”, and is of particular interest because it preceded the rapid appearance of most major groups of complex animals around 530 million years ago, as evidenced by the fossil record, which they call the cambrian explosion.

Following that period, there have been five mass extinctions. The last extinction event occurred 65 million years ago, which we all learned in school how a meteorite collision triggered the extinction of the dinosaurs and other large reptiles, but spared small animals such as mammals. This meteorite collision had caused another ice age which was present about 40 million years ago and then another ice age formed about 3 million years ago. Here is the most important point, THE POLAR REGIONS HAVE SINCE UNDERGONE CYCLES OF GLACIATION AND THAW, repeating every 40-100,000 years. The last ice age ended 10,000 years ago. Sounds similar to what’s going on today, doesn’t it? Well keep reading because it gets better.

The future of the planet is closely tied to that of the Sun. As a result of the steady accumulation of helium ash at the Sun’s core, the star’s total luminosity will slowly increase. The luminosity of the Sun will increase by 10 percent over the next 1.1 billion years and by 40% over the next 3.5 billion years. Climate models indicate that the rise in radiation reaching the Earth is likely to have really lethal consequences, including the possible loss of the planet’s oceans. Which means it’s getting warmer and as it gets warmer, the biosphere (air, land, surface rocks, and water, within which life occurs) will start to slowly change. Now please, don’t be scared, the really bad stuff doesn’t happen for a several hundred million years.

In 900 million years, the Earth’s increasing surface temperature will accelerate the inorganic CO2 cycle, which will kill all plant life on the planet. The lack of plant life will result in the loss of oxygen in the atmosphere, so animal life will become extinct within several million more years. Not only that but the internal cooling of Earth would result in the disappearance of the atmosphere and oceans. After another billion years, surface water will have completely disappeared and the average global temperature will reach 70°C.

But don’t you people worry, the Earth still has 500 million years left in her to effectively support life.

Finally, this is pretty much the end of everything where the Sun starts destroying the solar system. The Sun, as part of its evolution, will expand to a red giant in about 5 Billion years. They predict that the Sun will expand out to about 250 times its present size. Earth’s fate is less clear. As a red giant, the Sun will lose roughly 30% of its mass, so, without tidal effects, the Earth will be in an orbit from the Sun when the star reaches it maximum size. Earth is thought to escape being enveloped by the expanded Sun’s outer atmosphere, but by that point, most or all of life should be destroyed due to the close proximity of the Sun. But there is a possibility that Earth’s orbit could decay due to tidal effects and gravitational pull, causing it to be engulfed by the Red Giant.
