Combine this with a fantastic physics engine and you've got a recipe for hilarity as you blindly flop around the

This has been reinforced with increasing urgency by scientists around the world, with US climate scientist James Hansen this week publishing a paper highlighting that «conceivable
levels of human - made climate forcing could yield the low - end runaway greenhouse effect» including «out -

of methane hydrates».
Excerpt: President Obama's «science czar,» John Holdren, once floated the idea
of forced abortions, «compulsory sterilization,» and the creation
of a «Planetary Regime» that would oversee
human population
levels and
control all natural resources as a means
of protecting the planet — controversial ideas his critics say should have been brought up in his Senate confirmation hearings.
Examples; CO2
levels in the atmosphere correlate directly with
human population (lots
of breathing) and thus population
control can avoid climate change (hard to disprove) Melting
of the Artic ice sheet is good as shipping route will become shorter and transportation costs much less.
The fact is that
humans dominate this planet precisely because we are capable
of exterting a measure
of control over our environment, and a greater

I beg to differ with the viewpoint that the belief that
humans exert fundamental (100 % attribution)
control over the melting
of ice sheets and the raising or lowering
of sea
levels or the temperatures
of the deep oceans by emitting more or less fossil fuels is a «mainstream» view.
Rise
of the global average sea
level over the time periods
of most interest to
human economies is
controlled primarily by the mass or density
of ocean water.
Both mechanisms are now under
control of humans: GHGs have increased far above
levels that existed during the past few million years and ice sheets are disintegrating in both hemispheres.
