companies cyclical
anything goes friday's murder are your form of our
a brain stimulation and supplement and appreciation for thank you reason for
mark
require corporate parent
their own programs century and i believe i've
uh... google global warming the effects of it in my lifetime and that's what i'm
concerned with is
seemed that we've allowed the conversation to change from global
warming to climate change the way that it's being referenced and if you look at
that
the brief history of it for so long people tonight that there was global
warming and
when the preponderance of evidence showed that there was global warming now
they're saying well it's just climate change and we've we've been through
climate changes before and and my responsibility fact they love to play
we've been through periods of warming up the applicable before but
i guess my point is we've never been true period performing when we had
are six billion people on earth thirty thousand airplane try to be an eight
hundred million automobiles in coal-fired power plants a all this
myriad of things but
at work hard into the air well and the times that we have had really
significant like five degrees celsius warnings before
they've been called extinctions
well like i just wish we would allow them to make corrections to cope from
global warming
because so many of our under climate as somebody call the program a week or so
ago and said you know where this climate change come from our wire recalling a
global warming and i said at the time that i thought that it came on the
scientific community that they wanted to be a little more precise
and uh...
the several listeners pointed me to link so you know it and you can breed the
threads over her
blogs it tommorrow dot com
point anita links uh... that showed that this was actually a suggestion frank
luntz is
will in fact i prepared how do i do it
scientific community as making that change is they're just trying to
populate it up
so they believe they'll be listened to a little bit more but i i think we need to
be real
real serious pattern using the word
global warming radically need to use the words global disaster and we need to
talk about extensions
and and serious talking about extensions of last major extinction on her
the uh... about at the last one but those is the second blaster blasting was
that the end of the jurassic period
uh... and that was when sixty five million years ago a meteorite hit the
earth in near where where it is now cancun left a giant crater crater which
is that
basin they're off the coast of uh... mexico leads in the gulf of mexico
and that crater
excuse me that that bet me here
uh... killed roughly sixty percent of all life on earth including virtually
all the dinosaurs with the exception of some of the holdovers like the
alligators and things
and so the smaller ones and apparently birds which came out of dinosaurs
the
extinction appreciated it
was democrats called the prominent station and happened two hundred fifty
million years ago
and
op until the nineteen nineties nobody knew what caused it the assumption was
always that it had been a mere strike like the other extinctions worried a
meteor strikes are massive
tectonic activity in a changing of contents breaking up of kinds of things
blowing all kinds of lava out into the atmosphere
and and nobody really got what caused the permian extinction
and there's a brilliant documentary are from bbc about this
permeating shin
was
caused first off it had to there were two killers
it depreciation first was important because ninety five percent of all
species
bank by personal life on earth advantage
it was a period of at least
uh... eighty thousand years of the planet being virtually sterile and tens
of millions of years that it took for the planet comeback
and then you know sixty five billion years of uh... you know for the
dinosaurs to fully vault
now before the next strike happened
and so what caused the brink session has been business big question while it
turns out that there was this area there what are known as the siberian traps
this northern siberia
hundreds of square miles that just kind of opened up as a giant volcano
whether or not but i think it is called sheet largest these giant flows of lava
out on the ground
and in the process released so much gases material so much particulate
material
and in particular soc carbon dioxide that warm the planet five degrees
celsius
there's a pretty there's been a strong consensus that that's what happened ever
since the early nineties see you know when they first really found the
evidence evidence of this up in siberia
and hurt but the question has been
five-degree celsius is enough to kill off sixty percent of life on earth but
not ninety five percent not enough to basically sterilize the planet
and and just put this in context by the way
these scientists with the i_p_c_ c
are suggesting that if we keep on the course that were on a nobody thinks we
will we're not that insane but if we continue to political level we are
by the year twenty one hundred we will have raised the temperature here at five
to six degrees celsius
so just keep that in mind as i'm telling you this story
so the siberian traps blew out all is slava
and that lava
and the gases from it
the paradox in particular raised the charities by five degrees celsius
bud light so that's not up to kill everything so what was it the killed
everything looked turned out that
are along the along the coast civil quality on all of our oceans along that
area where at the land become see where the lands j
use some darts into the water where the windows down in the water
or the waters covers the land
you've got the most there is a great as biodiversity on the planet
and because of their edges
you know edges are always place is a great diversity in activity and you've
got a lot of life particularly vegetable life you know the algae grow giant mats
of al joke as a green stuff and and little tiny plankton and our cad and
down lytle says well the the the soon whatever it's called the
zooplankton
and this stuff as a life cycle of our allies cycle is a dies in a dies a
settles the bottom as a settles the bottom it's riding in is it's riding is
producing methane gas you know as this stuff the smallest ave prodding
vegetation
it's how cars house far to tell all of us par excellence methane and methane is
also known as natural gas
so any of these these things are riding in the sinking of the bottom as this
into a bottom in iraq
the math thing and that is released at behind pressures hundreds of feet under
the allusion
uh... you get locked up in these crystalline lattices of water that is at
or just slightly below the freezing temperature but doesn't freeze because
the pressure so high
but when it combines with the methane it actually forms these
but little boxes around the mapping crystals have uniforms these giant
sheets
of a slurry kind of ice that are called methane hydrate crystals
and hundreds of
trillions of tons of them along the coast ps of all the contents
and if they're they're in their frozen
because they're in an area that's maybe only sixty seventy feet
of dot
where above that
the methane would turn into a gas in bubble up to the surface
and below that
uh... the the the vegetable material doesn't
me you know no longer deeply decomposes and produces nothing
so it's a very specific layer that you find all around the world
and if there's all this nothing i agree and the oil companies have been
exploring how to suck this stuff up
because it's almost pure natural gas mixed with water and it's easy to
separate water from natural gas
and has been a couple of attempts to do so
and what was so anyhow water one of the things that they've learned
when they were in the late nineties when they were drilling for 'em methane
hydrate crystals off the coast of england
one of the things that they learned was that
this stuff was really really reaching political carbon twelve a four of carbon
that is
an absolute signature of rapidly divulging decomposing plant matter
about the same time
a group of arcipello of uh... geologists we're looking at the permian extinction
in antarctica in south africa
and in greenland
found that in the army extension layers that heath as near layer
about forty thousand years into it
long after the siberian traps had stopped erupting but while the plant was
still five degrees warmer cuz it takes a long time for that's irritated by the
atmosphere
above forty thousand years into this
there was a second giant warming of the planet
and that second giant warming the planet warm the planet by additional five
degrees which sterilize the plan which killed ninety five percent of all life
'cause we were now at ten degrees celsius in warming and that is enough to
kill ninety five percent of all life
at the very time that that happened
they expected to see the signature of us of a meteorite hitting you know a large
amount of a radium all around the planet
instead what they found
was carbon twelve
so the question was how the hell did carbon twelve which is the product of
of centuries of plant decomposition
and above the atmosphere in such massive amounts that buried forty thousand years
into the layer of the permian
egghead mass extinction
turns out
but that five degrees celsius temperature increase in the plan that
was enough over that forty thousand years to warm the oceans to the point
without layer of methane hydrate crystals warmed up and all those crystal
started melting releasing the gas
gas problem up into the air
methane is twenty five times more potent them
cover not test greenhouse gas and so for the next forty thousand years raise the
temperature ten degrees celsius and that was the permian extinction
is what we are doing to ourselves with all of this
talk about clean calling all this nonsense about him gas natural gas being
clean energy source for all that dot started off a bit and and and that we
have time to respond thank you for the call you're listening to the trial mark
munro
visit com hardman dot com brawny dealer half of all of them back to what i've
said instead a chronic final changing global warming we need to start talking
about the next permian extinction we need to talk about climate crisis
