Forebodings of Doom
Wednesday, July 28th, 2010How much is a 1%/year decline ?
Enough that if i had a hundred of anything, i would have fifty in seventy years.
What are these anythings ? Phytoplankton in the ocean, who produce half the oxygen we breathe are declining at 1% a year. They die because the oceans change in a warming world. The world is warming because I and you put carbon dioxide in the air.
The phytoplankton eat carbon dioxide to make oxygen. So, a decline in phytoplankton means an increase in carbon dioxide, which in turn causes more warming and less phytoplankton and less oxygen and more carbon dioxide…
Eat local. Drive less. Insulate the house.
