Aliens may destroy humanity to protect other civilisations from Climate Deniers

I AM NOT MAKING THIS UP
Aliens may destroy humanity to protect other civilisations from climate deniers



Actual Guardian Story

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 scientists at Nasa and 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.[PROOF that I am not making this up]

I'm passing this baton to Anthony Watts.

Honest to God, I've had it with these asshats. Their theory must be: If you can't bring them into line with bad (hockey stick) science - intimidate them with bad science fiction. Can't wait to see a photo op with THE ONE bowing to an interplanetary potentate. kee-ryst.

Awww, c'monnnnnn!
They already did that plot.
You know, The Day the Earth Stood Still (@5:00min)

"... this Earth of yours will be reduced to a burned-out cinder."
Sayyy, what if Global Warming is really due to alien action? Huh? Huh?
(What? Hey, it makes just as much sense, dunnit?)

they so destroyed the day the earth stood still when they based it on that crap

Did those idiots ever consider that the only civilizations to advance enough to be 'watching' us from afar, might just be the ones that that were also smart enough to throw asshats like algore and his kind down flaming volcanoes?

Sturgeons Law:
Sturgeon a science fiction writer was at a party one time and a man asked him what he did for a living. He told them he wrote science fiction stories and novels. The man sneeringly said, "90 percent of that stuff is crap." Sturgeon replied, "90 percent of everything is crap." This became known as Sturgeon's Law. Krugman and company have violated this law and have committed themselves to achieving 100 percent crap.

toadold: Keep in mind, Sturgeon was referring to PUBLISHED science fiction. 99.995% (real statistic... or at least it's what College courses in creative writing say) of all fiction submitted to a publisher is rejected.

I don't think it's so much that they're trying to achieve 100% crap; it's that I think that -- whenever they can get the liberal mindset out there -- the mainstream media has decided to ignore all those safeguards that get rid of that 99.995% of crappy writing that DOESN'T get published.

90% of 0.005% is 0.0045%.

Ad them together, and you realize that 99.9995% of everything they write is crap. (the remaining 0.0005% is accounted for by the few times the weather report is right)

Let's see: Radio transmissions have been broadcast to the universe for around a century. Supposed greenhouse gases have only been around since George Bush, after he started the secret society of reprobates intent on destroying the Earth's atmosphere. So, I'm guessing the aliens are tossing a coin to see if Hitler, or George Bush was the biggest threat.

I imagine the aliens have a hard time sleeping at night, while they roll the terrible options around their tiny green heads. I know I sleep better at night knowing these scientists are wisely spending their budget on important issues. Let's send them more public funds. The fate of Earth is in the balance.

These aliens, remember, are represented here by Algore and Barry Soetoro, prompting the question "Do we want to go on living?"

If Barry and Al represent the alien race, I think we're safe, which brings a more frightening thought: What if the aliens were closing their looney bins and sending the inmates to Earth?

Sounds like a bong-inspired theory to me.
