Hi everyone! Recently, we've been experiencing abnormal calamities around the world and they just seems to get worse everyday. What do you think could be the reason of all of these? Could be signs that the world's gonna end sometime in the near future? Or Global warming? It really worries me sometimes, and it's just beyond our control.

Hi Mike... I don't think that the world is coming to an end... It is just a illusion created by some people who're making money out of it... LOL... Global warming is the product of human consumption only, and it can be controlled with efficient plans- hope they'll think about it seriously, sometime soon... :) But I promise you one thing, the world is not going to end so soon... I have heard such rumours thrice in 26 years of my life and nothing has yet happened... It is simply a rumour created by some people to make money out of it... Have fun buddy!

Global warming is not a product of human consuption only, you're neglecting all the cyclic and natural events saying that. Other thing, absolute control of nature is impossible, our scientific theories show that we have a probabilistic knowledge of the events. There is also a fallacious sentence when you say that "it has nothing yet happened". I'll give an example: if I'm drunk everyday and nothing has yet happened. This means that I'll never have Cirrhosis? Obviously there's something wrong with that.

hi Mike4me , i think its definitely global warming which resulted from man's own fault and doing.My country's temperature rise a few degrees in these few years.Used to be around 34`C but nowadays it reaches 38`C on a hot sunny day.The weather are much warmer and one can easily sweats once outside.

Well, the world is getting older. I can also feel that its getting warmer as years go by. I do not know if the end of the world is coming but for sure the world is has changed a lot as compared to when I was still very young. I am worried also, but no matter what we do, for as long as people continue to do their ways in harming the environment, sooner or later it will end. I have accepted that already.

Abnormal calamities do occur often and its only not because of global warming but because of other factors too. Happenings like Earth quake and volcanoes have no relationship with that of Global warming. Its only the raise in sea level, increase in the temperature are the things that contributes to global warming.The world is never going to end in the near future and no way it happens. Its absolutely ridiculous to believe this 2011 or 12 stories... The industrial pollution and other things which we do will definitely mark an end of human race but not this world.

I`m still very sceptical - it has never been REALLY proven anyway... There was this article a while back: http://www.investors.com/NewsAndAnalysis/Article.aspx?id=513195

The things that are happening with our weather, and climate have happened before, and will happen again. They are not new. Think of them as "super seaons" muahahahha ya ....anyway. Everyone is freaking out "the earth is getting warmer! frikin icecaps are melting, and polar bears don't have a place to live!!!" wtf is wrong with you? First of all calm down. Polar bears don't live on the ice freaks. They're hunting. They don't need the ice. And 2nd,3rd, etc... Of course the earth is warming. Its going back to the way it was. We had an ice age! Everything froze over. Everything will heat up to the way it was, and one day we might have another ice age. Stop polluting, recycle, don't waste french fries, but stop with the nonsense.

Well no one really knows what the reason is, many blame it on global warming, I think for instance the earthquakes had to do with our earth missing all the petroleum we pumped out of the bottom of the earth layers so now there are many voids and the weight of the upper layers are giving in, the faults are moving more and that geological change has even changed the axis of the earth rotation.

Hi mike4me, it's definitely a sign of global warming, if the population of the earth don't take preventive measures now, it's going to be too late. If the current trend goes on like this, our children and their children will have no place to live, as already our world is filling up with wastes which are not biodegradable. Some of such non biodegradable wastes are plastic bags, old broken plastic products and e-wastes etc. Thank you.

I know,and it worries me too.I believe that it`s the environmental damage that causes and accelerates the state.But without the governments attention,we can never improve this state.Also if all of us think more of immediate profit than long-term effection,how can we survive from the Global Warming?!Maybe we can do nothing but wait?Who knows!

global warming i think it is not a big deal it is just a calling upon ,because even the scientist also can not know what is really going to happen they just can predict it ,year nowadays the pollution is getting to high it is out of control ,if we can reduce it so we can prevent unwanted result ,but i think for the world go to an end because of this factor is till a long time ,just like an old say we try to prevent it than cure it .
