Why the increasing temperature would cause extinctions?

 



Why the increasing temperature would cause extinctions?


Pleistocene-Holocene extinction


Normally we have talked about five extinctions. But now the number of extinctions is six because at the end of the last ice-age was the extinction of the giant animals(1). If we want to prepare the threat, we must know and realize threats. And we must not underestimate the threat. The thing is that we should find a solution to the worst problem, and that is climate chancing. Some researchers have said that climate warming has destroyed species in the case of all extinctions or at least the worst of them(2). The sixth mass extinction of our planet (3). In that extinction, many mammals like Mammoths were destroyed for some reason. 


The tale is about the Holocene-period extinction, but the same model can maybe be caused also the destruction of dinosaurs. Maybe Mammoths were mammals, but they would need internal fat as well as the dinosaurs, and if the temperature would rise for a long time, the behavior of animals would change. And then they would not collect internal fat for winter, and then suddenly something drops the temperature. 


At the end of the final ice-age, the reason for extinction was the fast rise and drop of the temperature. When the long warming period stopped suddenly and the temperature started to move fast up and down that thing caused a more dangerous situation than some warming or freezing alone. 


The similar effect can kill dinosaurs


There is a possibility that climate warming, what had continued a long time would increase the effect of the nuclear winter after the volcanic eruption, which might be connected with the asteroid impact. When the asteroid has impacted the Earth, that thing happened at the worst possible place. 


One of those bites dropped on the Yucatan peninsula, but some other bites would be impacted the water. That kind of thing can cause the worst tsunami ever, and if that asteroid has been crushed to smaller bites that can explain the large area of the effect of the impact. 


Some of those bites might be the cosmic snowballs, what have exploded on air, and some of them would cause the impact wave, which travels in the magma layer. That thing caused volcanic eruptions all around the world. 


How meteorite what impact on the ground can cause a volcanic eruption at the other side of the planet?


When the meteorite impacted the ground, that caused the fast decrease of temperature. And if dinosaurs were not prepared by collecting fat in their bodies, that kind of thing can be devastating


The cosmic snowball would explain the reason, why that meteorite was not left the impact crater on the Earth. Or by the way, The Gulf of Mexico might be the result of the meteorite impact but is that the meteorite, what caused the extinction of the dinosaurs. When cosmic snowball hits the lithosphere, the impact energy would be transmitted to the magma and continues to travel to the other side of the Earth. And then the magma would be pressed out from the volcanoes. 


But if the climate has been warm a long time the dinosaurs and vegetables would be adapted to the warm weather. Then the steam along with ash, what rise out from volcanoes and burning forests and grasses caused the nuclear winter, where the temperature suddenly dropped, and the dinosaurs froze to death. The effect of nuclear winter was so devastating because the dinosaurs were not collect fat to their bodies, and that caused death. Of course, the tsunami and fire that were caused by that meteorite were devastating.

Antimatter motor

Antimatter motor Antimatter would be an effective fuel for interstellar spacecraft Antimatter would be the most effective power source in the world. It will be the most suitable motor for interstellar spacecraft, but the problem is that thing is very reactive. And actually one of the biggest problems with this kind of motor is that the gram of antimatter would turn the entire planet to the molecular nebula. So this kind of motor can produce only outside of our solar system. Producing antimatter would need large particle accelerators, and that kind of systems might look like giant donuts, what is floating on the space. There are two ways to create the antimatter motor, one is to store the anti-ions in the magnetic bottle, where the pushing magnetic field will keep those ions away from the wall of the bottle, and then the antimatter would conduct to the water or some other particle. The huge explosion or annihilation reaction would send the rocket to a very high speed. The antimatt...

Could this be the thing, that some people don't want you to know about zombies?

Could this be the thing, that some people don't want you to know about zombies? The simplest way to control zombies, which are made by using tetrodotoxin, which is called "zombie poison" is to use the automatic dispenser, which is normally used in diabetes treatment. In this case, the dispenser would be loaded by using tetrodotoxin. If the level of this poison is right, the person would be totally under the control of other people. And if the system cannot detect this poison there is a possibility to make the laboratory experiment when the staff will follow the decrease of the tetrodotoxin, and then the system can use a simple clock, which will inject poison to the body of a victim after a certain time. This would be an effective tool in the hands of military and counter-terror operators. Those zombies can be captured enemy operators, who will send back, and then they just kill their ex-partners. By using genetically engineered bacteria could be possible to create t...

Who really was Plato, the great philosopher?

When we are thinking about the great philosopher Plato, we are thinking about the man who established the Academy of Athens. And we might remember that this man was a traveler. He traveled in many places in his life and wrote many texts and books, which still is very respected thoughts about the state and other things. When we are looking at the books or series of books, we are facing the thing, that there were lots of texts. If we want to use criticism we must notice that the model of the ideal state is rising the kings in the very high position, and the thing would flatter the kings. And sometimes I have thought that maybe that famous model of the ideal state is written by somebody else. The thing is that the model, where the philosophers rule the state behind the lines of soldiers could be written for the persons like Justinian, who was really flattered. The thing is that this kind of writings was meant for flatter the rulers, who would not persecute philosophers, even they had d...
