Question

How long would life last on Earth if global warming occurs at the rate of 11 degrees a day ?

Answer 1

We'd be dead in a week tops. Avrg temp is 19c or 20c , so ...31, 42, 53,(suffocating) 64( skin burning over rel. short period) 75, (dead)

Answer 2

If you start with today's high, people will be dropping like flies by Sunday (4 days), and most species would be seriously endangered  by next Saturday (10 days).Within another 2 days, all bodies of water will be starting to boil away so I would say that if you start today, even the cockroaches will be endangered by the end of the month.

Answer 3

Far longer than if the earth cooled at the rate of 11 degrees a day.

Answer 4

well, it's 80 F in St Thomas today. At 11 degrees a day, 11 days is 121 rise, so a week from next Wednesday the atmosphere here will be boiling water.

the IPCC......the people who shared the Nobel Prize with Gore? predict the worst case is

2 degrees F in 100 years

Sea Level rise 3 to 6 inches.

Go read it ( or at least a summation) yourself

and then wonder

"what is all the panic about?"

Answer 5

I think the upper prediction is about 11 degrees F in 100 years.  11 degrees F a day is fiction.

Answer 6

Who cares. Being that over the past 100 years, the earth has barley warmed 1 degree, I do not think this is a concern. Also, the warming is a welcome increase being that it is being measured from the time of the little ice age.
