Excess Greenhouse Gases Could Lead To Alien Attack - The Orange Mane

You just can't make this stuff up folks .......

NASA Scientist:"Excess Greenhouse Gases Could Lead To Alien Attack"

Aliens may destroy humanity to protect other civilisations, say scientists

It may not rank as the most compelling reason to curb greenhouse gases, but reducing our emissions might just save humanity from a pre-emptive alien attack, scientists claim.

Watching from afar, extraterrestrial beings might view changes in Earth's atmosphere as symptomatic of a civilisation growing out of control – and take drastic action to keep us from becoming a more serious threat, the researchers explain.

This highly speculative scenario is one of several described by a Nasa-affiliated scientist and colleagues at Pennsylvania State University that, while considered unlikely, they say could play out were humans and alien life to make contact at some point in the future.

Shawn Domagal-Goldman of Nasa's Planetary Science Division and his colleagues compiled a list of plausible outcomes that could unfold in the aftermath of a close encounter, to help humanity "prepare for actual contact".

Oh goodness.

Are they trying to marginalize this set of ideas about Global Warming?

That's gaffney-esque.

Excess greenhouse gases could lead to aliens to come along and take over for us. Maybe they could do better than we've done. We'll make great pets!

What's truly amazing is there are a bunch of pinhead professors at Pennsylvania State University getting paid to think this crap up. My guess is this is a grant with taxpayer money.
