While nobody says it, the China one child policy is actually a government run eugenics programme on a grand scale

Yep.. I've also state that I believe it will make it exceedingly difficult for any militarists in Bejing to gain power and engage in regional aggression (S. China Sea.. etc).

Losing a male in combat is the equivalent of wiping out an entire family's lineage. Too many dead Chinese soldiers and it will result in a social uprising by the people's who children are being risked in military adventurism.

But I think I'm the only one who has offered this hypothesis (theory?). And I hope that it is never tested.

The professionals obviously have a better idea how precarious our situation is against huge cataclysmic forces. For several billion years our ancestors found a way to survive inside a little narrow climate window.

The magnetic poles are reversing right now - a total flip takes about 50,000 years.

The shift in declination was 6.9 minutes west each year it has now sped up to 9 minutes west ...

Yellowstone is due to blow give or take 10,000 years. It will be a nice place to settle during the next glaciation. The little pools that surround the caldera will be great places to hunt deer, moose and elk while you wait for civilization to reboot and start over.

Pray you are not around when these supersonic upper mantle plumes erupt without warning.

Will bring a whole new meaning to "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds", eh?

Where will all of those Kimberlite laden diamonds fall?

Kimberlite rarely contains diamond and even in the off chance it was rich ore and there was one carat per tonne it would still be a poor way to spend your time looking for riches.

You are right Hawk. But it's not just the 1 child policy though that's an extreme example of the general way of humanity these days in which the number of descendants is heading for less than 2 quite universally and is already at 1.5 in some countries [Italy, Japan for example].

The main driver of military conflict historically has been a large surplus of males. With women having about 10 children in the normal historical course of events, simple arithmetic shows that they had to nearly all die without leaving progeny.

In the Malthusian world of bygone eras, there was always a shortage of territory. So spare young males would be traditionally given some sort of weapon and told to go and conquer the neighbouring tribes, who would have young men being given the same instruction. The tribe without many young males would lose. So it was important to keep the numbers up and that led to the problem, inevitably. Hence the history of humanity was the history of genocidal war, and often cannibalistic too.

That whole sociological context has changed now.

Polar Bear Population Growth Confounds Libs

The debate about climate change and its impact on polar bears has intensified with the release of a survey that shows the bear population in a key part of northern Canada is far larger than many scientists thought, and might be growing.


The number of bears along the western shore of Hudson Bay, believed to be among the most threatened bear subpopulations, stands at 1,013 and could be even higher, according to the results of an aerial survey released Wednesday by the Government of Nunavut. That’s 66 per cent higher than estimates by other researchers who forecasted the numbers would fall to as low as 610 because of warming temperatures that melt ice faster and ruin bears’ ability to hunt. The Hudson Bay region, which straddles Nunavut and Manitoba, is critical because it’s considered a bellwether for how polar bears are doing elsewhere in the Arctic.

The polar bears forgot to watch all the propaganda about their imminent demise.

I guess this is why old people move to Florida.

Speaking of which, why is there not much temperature variation in Florida? Oh yeah, water vapor is the most influential greenhouse gas on this planet. Areas near the oceans have lower variability than intercontinental areas. What is the PPM of water on a typical Florida summer day? How about somewhere in the realm of 35,000 ppm plus or minus 4000 ppm (I think I did my Clausius right). Who cares...I'm ball-parking it. Now let everyone complain about increasing 400 ppm of CO2 over the course of a century and how that influences everything.

Himalayan glaciers growing despite global warmingGlaciers in parts of the greater Himalayas are growing despite the worldwide trend of ice melting due to warmer temperatures, a study has found.

In the Karakoram mountain range on the border of Pakistan and China, glaciers have defied global warming to become marginally larger over a decade, researchers said.


The French scientists produced three dimensional maps of the range, which is separated from the Himalayas but usually considered part of the same chain, between 1999 and 2008.


Their findings suggest the region is contravening the global pattern of glacier shrinkage, which is taking place elsewhere in the Himalayas and around the planet.


The impact of global warming in the region has been controversial since an Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change report wrongly claimed in 2007 that glaciers in most of the greater Himalayan range could vanish by 2035.


The research, published in the Nature Geoscience journal, comes a month after a study which suggested the rate of ice loss in the Himalayas was being overestimated due to inadequate monitoring methods.

Julie Gardelle, at CNRS-Université Grenoble, who led the project, said the reason for the exception was unclear but could be related to regional variation in temperature.

She told The Guardian: "In our warming world, there are regions of the Earth where, for a few years or decades, the atmosphere is not warming or is even cooling.

"So it is not really a big surprise that there are some regions where the temperature is not rising and the Karakoram may be one of those."

In a comment piece in the same journal Graham Cogley, a Canadian researcher who previously challenged the 2007 IPCC report, said making sense of the differing glacial size figures produced by different scientific techniques would "keep glaciologists busy for some time".
