“The hypothesis is that a large comet fragmented and the chunks impacted the Earth, causing this disaster. A number of different chemical signatures — carbon dioxide, nitrate, ammonia and others — all seem to indicate that an astonishing 10 percent of the Earth’s land surface, or about 10 million square kilometers, was consumed by fires.”

I missed something.

What is it about plastic straws all of a sudden?

Did the CEO of a soda straw company say something mean about Hillary?

Perspective. In World Wars one and two thousands of tankers were torpedoed, burned and sank. Entire cities were burned to the ground. Yet a year after World War Two, there was little evidence of that. But one oil well leak will destroy life as we know it. Hence there is no drilling off Florida. Yet other countries have thousands of wells in and around the Gulf of Mexico, but not many for the US. There is so much hysteria about the environment and so little perspective.
