      Which of the five options should we be most worried about that can cause human extinction? When voting, think of magnitude, timeframe, and probability. This is for my debate class, and I'm interested in seeing the results.

      I'm guessing nuclear war or maybe the magnitude of the disease.

      I guess depending on the disease it can be extremely effective or it could be something like a common flu that isn't as lethal.

      I would rather die to a nuclear war (instant death) than die from a disease (suffering death).

      Then wouldn't you rather prevent extinction by disease as opposed to extinction by nuclear war? Your statement, in a way, contradicts your poll choice.

      Global warming.
      If Russia and the U.S obliderate the world with their nukes, or india decides to blow up pakistan and vice verca, OR, Other countries in the arab peninsula decide to help hammas and isis with the war against israel, which will involve iraq, iran, and the U.S (and russia cause they love the attention, ammi right?), that will be our problem. Once we have reached the terminal point in the ozone layer we will eventually get #Rekt by a solar flare because our love of oil and coal will have opened a big enough gap in our atmosphere, solar flares will begin to go through. We have approx. 8 years to develop fusion, a unlimited (few billion years) source of clean, efficient energy. The problem currently is the efficient part. Right now, in order to do fusion we must put in more energy than we get out. And they are taking forever, because the government atm only cares about this taxing the poor and hiking the rich. As long as the Republicans stay in control of either the house, senate, or presidency, we are pretty much screwed over. However, there is still time to act, the next election cycle will be crucial, if the democrats and independents manage to run over the house (its pretty much 100% given Hilary gets the presidency), then we still may have a shot.

      In all honesty tho, I dont give a s*** which party you support, or which party is right, or blah blah blooh bleh, politicians at the end of the day are politicians. And with our congress rated at 3% approval rating, I think we can all agree they are jerks. But we really need to shed light on this issue. This is what will ultimately decide wether or not the human race can survive or not in the future. What congress is doing is procrastinating on that long report that you didnt want to do all week, and now its 12:00 and you need it done by tomorrow. That never turns out good right? You on average get a 0 for that. And thats what we are headed for. We have little time to act, but no one cares about this, because by the time this happens, all the old people in congress will be dead and guess what, its my generations problem. I mean, as long as they have a healthy nice life who cares about us? Thats the problem. And by the time we get the power to do something, it will be too late. Im sorry, but our generation wont go well. Its a really bad and dark future ahead. We must deal with the oil peak, in which we will have no more plastic, the coal peak, where we wont have energy to power our research and homes, and we wont have fusion, the answer to all our problems.

      This is good... The fools have no idea that the pufferfish are planning to take over the world and enslave the human race.
      I mean...... We probably shouldn't worry about global warming... melt the glaciers, it is good for us fish. We need more ocean to swim in. Worry about Nuclear War, you silly humans. :s

      I'm more concerned on the deal with Russia. As you may of known, flight 370 "Crashed" into the ocean. Well about a few months ago, MH17, was "Shot" down. Well yes I know there is another story with Russia and it's leaders. But this one is by far the weirdest. Now when they were examining the bodies on MH17. They found a dead body of a young poet who was on MH370.. Also on the day MH17 "Took" off from the airport. According to the schedule in the airport, it never took off, it was delayed. I also find weird that, MH17's wreckage was the same model as MH370's plane. Also all the bodies on MH17 weren't burned (due to explosion and heat), they were rotting and 4-5 months old (according to body examiners). Also very weird, the Russian Gov't claims the Video of MH17 crashing was made 23 days before it actually crashed. I believe MH370 took off, a certain group hijacked it, and they brought it to a base of some sort. The bodies would then rot, and oddly it's weird how someone who's considered dead from MH370, was found dead on MH17. I believe they killed everyone on board and then they crashed it to make it look like another flight. http://www.malaysia-chronicle.com/i...nspiracy-theory-shocks&Itemid=2#axzz39vvsG7lM

      I do indeed think that Russia is about to do something bad.
      I also believe in nuclear war and what not.
      Russia did recently admit they have possession of a bomb. Firewall type bomb.
      The End.

      Think of Space Disasters. Those are more likely to occur and there will be NO survivors
