  • A Modest Proposal to fix Global Warming: Giant Cans of RAID

    In this corner: the Termites

    http://www.sciencemag.org/cgi/conten...t/218/4572/563

    Termites may emit large quantities of methane, carbon dioxide, and molecular hydrogen into the atmosphere. Global annual emissions calculated from laboratory measurements could reach 1.5 x 1014 grams of methane and 5 x 1016 grams of carbon dioxide.
    vs. the challenger: Human CO2 emissions

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of...xide_emissions

    Rank Country Annual CO2 emissions
    (in thousands of metric tons)
    Percentage of total emissions[7]
    - World28,431,741100.0 %
    Since 1,000,000 grams = 1 metric ton, termites are emitting 50,000,000,000 metric tons vs. the human's mere 28,431,741,000 metric tons.

    So lets just kill half of all the termites in the world.

    :rolleyes:
