I have long been on record as being highly skeptical of global warming alarmism. But when new information comes to light, I'm not afraid to admit that I may have been mistaken.
It turns out that if we don't stop CO2 emissions, aliens from outer space may decide to kill us. According to a joint study by Penn State and the NASA Planetary Science Division, one possible scenario is that extraterrestrials may decide that we are a threat to the intergalactic ecosystem and should therefore be destroyed.
The study says that extraterrestrial intelligence (ETI) "could attack and kill us, enslave us, or potentially even eat us. ETI could attack us out of selfishness or out of a more altruistic desire to protect the galaxy from us. We might be a threat to the galaxy just as we are a threat to our home planet."
This frightening scenario comes on the heels of New York Times writer Paul Krugman suggesting that if we were attacked by space aliens, it could be helpful to the economy.
This is a bit confusing. Attacked and eaten if we don't stop global warming, or attacked but it'll be good for the economy. Or maybe they attack but just eat Paul Krugman, which would make them vomit and they'd go look for food on some other planet.

I don't know how this is going to turn out, but just in case I think we'd better stop any activity that creates CO2 (except for breathing) and return to a prehistoric lifestyle. It won't be pleasant, but it beats being an entree for a Martian.
