Wow. No blog posts for over a year. I still suppose that wasn't as bad as when I stopped posting almost completely back in December 2006. Either way, I'm not going to be back completely with this for awhile, but I suppose I've got to pay my dues. Without further ado, here is the blog post:

1. You can call me Nowhere. Other people call me John Lennon, although that name has been obsolete for a few years now.

2. Don't mention anything too leftish to me.

3. Look at the following things: Pink Floyd, Star Wars, Half-life, YTMND, Grim Fandango, Zelda, Queen, Advanced Wars. What do these things have in common?

4. What was Black Wednesday? I don't think you will find this on Wikipedia. At least the one I'm talking about.

5. I like top of the line PCs. Unfortunately, I'm also cheap.

6. I am a vegan.

7. I live somewhere on the North American eastern seaboard.

8. They are the eggmen.

9. You are error.

10. Don't worry Bill is dead.

Any questions?

Woo. What a movie. Not only was that the cheesiest crap I've eveseen, it's so funny too. For those you who don't know what this movie is about, it's quite simple. It's simply about these tomatoes who animate and try to take over the world. That's it. The entire movie is actually a satire of the B-movie genre, and it is very effective in doing it. Not only is it intentionally bad, but it's also bad in ways that probably weren't intended, such as the helicopter crash at the beginning, which cost more than anything else in the movie combnied. It's got a great credit song too. If you're looking for some of the weirdest and worst movie acting, writing, and editing you've ever seen. Check out Attack of the Killer Tomatoes! Certainly worse than any film that's out right now.

Welcome once again for all those brave souls who have decided to view my humble fledgling blog. Herein I shall make my first topic on this new medium for me about a very common subject nowadays- global warming. I know, that word gets tossed around a lot, but there is often little to clarify what it all means. I know there's some doubts among even the scientific community if it even exists, but let's just say this is an ode to if it indeed does it exist. Whatever happens, I don't want to find out the hard way…

For many years, I have doubted the integrity of human nature. There is no doubt of the constantly looping cycle of wars, conflict, greed, fallacy, and lack of cooperation we've subjected ourselves to for all of our years as a species, and how much it continues to truly (and rightfully so) all but destroy our true potential as living, sentient beings. I have not only wondered if it is darkness that is the nature of the soul, but also that we will not be afraid of what that darkness can do until it stares us right down in front of us, and sucks the very marrow from our bones, and any trace of circulation from our brains. As such, I do not sugarcoat my lack of concern of the great majority of the human race, but perhaps for the sake of the few people that actually wish to change the world and survive, I wish to share just one of the many problems that may finally change the world as we know it: global warming.

Recent trends and studies continue to point to a constantly growing, almost mortal, problem: the earth's population is increasing at a rate that no one had ever predicted, already far above the earth's primary capacity rate of 3 billion people. With our equal exponential growth in the amount of cars, buildings, products, and energy sources that we live our lucrative lives with, we are having severe consequences on the greenhouse effect of our planet. The greenhouse effect in question is a warming process of the earth that has been stable for most of the years of the earth, but has now been fueled to unnatural levels by all of these sources, and not to mention processes like deforestation and ecological developments, well above the limits that have ever been experienced over the past 700,000 years.

With the greenhouse effect, light energy from the sun is allowed to enter the earth's atmosphere, to be absorbed by the earth and then radiated away from it as heat. The atmosphere allows for much of this to escape, but certain "greenhouse gases (most distinctly CO2, methane, and water vapor) trap some heat, and allow to return to be absorbed by earth, just as the cycle repeats with more light energy coming from the sun. This is for the most part a very natural process that has allowed the earth to remain at a habitable temperature for all of this time, but when the concentration of greenhouse gases are increased from human activity, then more and more heat than necessary is being retained. This creates an unnatural increase in the earth's temperature over the long term.

If this process is allowed to continue, then we might be looking astronomical increases in CO2 levels and temperatures within the next 300 years. Already, CO2 levels have been up to over 300 ppm, a level higher than they have ever been in the 650,000 years for which data is available. This has been predicted to quadruple in the next 300 years, which will have unbelievable repercussions on temperature. Many reports by the EPA and Livermore Lawrence National Laboratory predict it will increase in the range of 5-10 degrees centigrade for much of the earth (about 12-20 degrees Fahrenheit), and as much as 20 degrees centigrade (about 68 degrees Fahrenheit) in the polar regions! This change alone will be enough to cause the ice sheets in these regions to collapse, causing millions of tons of ice to fall into the ocean. Not only is this enough to raise the sea level by at least 10-20 feet, but it will also cause many disruptions in the environment, including unpredictable ocean activity, far more severe flooding, storms, and hurricanes than have ever been witnessed before, and conditions too hot and extreme for many species to ever survive (even the slightest change at the bottom of the food chain can be devastating to many plants and animals). What's probably the most frightening is the potential for this to shut off the Gulf Stream current, which is responsible for sending the great majority of all heat to high lying Europe, which will send the entire continent into permafrost. Whatever happens, the problems we face now will pale in comparison to this, and if we still care about knowing what large, serious, and grave problems used to be, we must act before it is too late.

None of this paints much of a pretty picture of our future of humanity, does it? I guess you can say that its future at present is not much better off than it being eternally crushed by a boot, and even if they heed this warning now, what is the likelihood or want to do what it takes to help solve this problem` If that is the way it will act, then I truly want something to happen to humanity with this. I want something so terrible, so horrifying, so horrifically and morally jaw dropping, larger than any massacre, larger than any "natural disaster", and larger than even any war fought as of now, so that maybe they would learn to understand. They will learn to understand what it means to be in and face a catastrophe. They will learn to truly fear the fear of being destroyed forever, and maybe for the sake of that they will act to reverse the terrible, wretched wrongdoings they have done for so long. A few people caring, even if they make the world everything that it is, will never be enough to stop such a mass of life drainers. Let it be hoped then that they care enough and will start living and turning this around, lest we be 6 feet under problems, ice, or water…
