Humans Push Planet Beyond Boundaries Towards "Danger Zone": Study
Reuters ^ | January 15, 2015 19:07 GMT | Chris Arsenault

ROME (Thomson Reuters Foundation) - Human activity has pushed the planet across four of nine environmental boundaries, sending the world towards a "danger zone", according to a study published on Thursday in the journal Science.

Climate change, biodiversity loss, changes in land use, and altered biogeochemical cycles due in part to fertilizer use have fundamentally changed how the planet functions, the study said.

These changes destabilize complex interactions between people, oceans, land and the atmosphere, said the paper "Planetary Boundaries: Guiding human development on a changing planet" by 18 leading international researchers.

There they go again. Remember the old Dooms Day Clock in the ‘50s that the Left hyped at during every crisis and at the end of each year that tried to scare everyone about nuclear war?

Pres. Reagan stopped that clock when he sent anti-nuke missiles to Europe and the USSR knew he couldn’t be bluffed into disarming the U S. Sadly, we have allowed our Leftist emperor to do that single handedly, and no one in the military or government lifted a finger.

We should be the best stewards we can be with what the good lord has given us and there are areas we can do better, but this we’re killing the planet is the epitome of human arrogance.

The researchers either know nothing or admit nothing about the massive ability of LIFE on this planet to adapt to change.

Yes, change is “disruptive” and simultaneously it is creative, disinheriting somethings and expanding opportunities for other things. When change is very active, the “balance” looks defeated, but it is only a temporary state until life, and that includes humans, adapt and continue life’s long march. Until the sun is so big and close to burn away the earth’s atmosphere, the process of change on earth will continue, and so will LIFE.

I remember it well, along with the hefty APR they were charging.

Don’t you find it ironic that car did 40MPG, but the NHTSA demanded manufacturers bloat their cars with safety “features”, ultimately contributing to “global warming” the EPA is currently bitching about?

That’s a girls car, here is a youtube video of what a good friend of mine built. I have been in this car, UNBELIEVABLE.
Some of the stuff Tom does is unreal, I stop in regularly to choot the chit with him.

He had a PO to build 50 of them until Carroll Shelby died. By the way it actually produced 2000 Hp on the DYNO with race gas, it was detuned a little down to 1200 for show.

Clearly the only solution is one-world government by faceless bureaucrats.

The part they neglect to mention...
