And to top it all, in about 35yrs, the earth will reach maximum sustainability. Then more will starve as our land availability to grow food diminishes. Global warming will take those that don’t starve.

I think Mother Nature will wipe the greatest threat to the planet of the face of the earth. That’s us in case you were wondering.

Unfortunately, the GOP doesn't believe in science. This administration will take us to places nobody should want to go.

This is the closest CNN can come to throwing shade. Tomorrow they'll report on how well qualified all the trump children are for senate seats.

The earth almost froze solid but was kept from that fate by volcanic activity!
