Think of the marketing campaigns, though! I have visions of the shelter from 'The Island' in my head. Everything all white, and clean...
Hmm... that's a very good point. Politics ruin everything. All the time. Always.

Politics is designed to ruin everything. That is why busy bodies get involved in it, to get in the way and stop progress.
I agree,world is so going downhill,I just lost my 10cents 
Maybe in the universe....
Essentially everything is made in and from stars (H + He) However the most abundant substance on/in the Earth is Iron, and the most abundant gas is Nitrogen.
The H Fuel cell is a good invention but I think its pretty limited in a portable capacity.
As for the generation of mass power nuclear power stations are looking like the best option until either solar can be more efficent or the work going on with Helium-3 and 7 or other "future" fusion based solutions become a reality.
I agree with 1 and 2
IIRC any nuclear blasts causes ozone to be depleted massively with an output of something like 4 or 5,000 tons of Nitric oxide produced for every megaton of explosive power, thats why all the testing was moved underground.As for the Asteroid or comet impact being least likely, I don't think its as unlikley as most people think, with some things wizzing around the sun at crazy fast speeds and new solar system objects descovered all the time its bound to happen at some point, maybe even in our lifetime.
Isn't our planet supposed to be overdue a huge volcanic event?
When you stop to think about how insignificant we are in the global machine its understandable how alot of people just don't seem to care about saving energy, living greener, eating healthy or even not littering (man that winds me up seeing people throwing Mcdonalds bags out of their cars
) global warming natural or man made I'm sure our oil rich, gas guzzling, junk food eating, TV watching, lfs playing lifestyle is acting as a catalist. As for the music scene the charts have been full of rubbish for years
But then I am officially an oldie isint it all cyclic anyway SD.
we just need to divert power from life support for 5 minutes (just make sure you're not wearing a red sweater when it happens). then we'll have world peace, the hole in the ozone will be fixed and jedward will be placed in a superman like prison thing.
Make it so.
Muse's older albums were good. takes some time getting used to their newer prog rock. I think i'll explore more of smashing pumpkins soon. Haven't heard of bush.
I stopped thinking about the consequences of global warming a year ago. Don't really care about it too much right now. My geo teacher thinks that we're going to see a huge war between india and china because of the Himalayan glacier melt.
You mean the day when antibiotics don't work and we'll suddenly have a disease like HIV which spreads through the air like smallpox?
And thanks for not looking at my profile page. I'm 14.
yes, it is, many of those are serious problems, but people just dont pay attention because they are not directly affected...its like cancer or AIDS, you just don't care until one of your relatives or YOU are not the one who has it
I'm personally doing the best I can to NOT support global warming, save energy, avoid debt economy etc...its not that hard, but some people just won't give up some things and most stupid childish argument is "one person won't change anything"...
Typical example is a car. Parents buy a car. Boy turns 18 and wants his own car because whatever...so a single family now has 2 cars. Because boy is not "rich" enough to buy a proper new ecological car, he buys an old one, which has enormous fuel consumption (especially in USA) and produces lots of CO2. Now...who cares? The boy? nah...parents? double nah...His friends/relatives/neighbours...anyone? no...why? because lots of people have cars, so why can't he?
But the result of these actions are now affecting everyone everywhere on the planet. Even a single person can change it.
If you sit 8 hours at a computer a day nothing bad happens, but if you set there for an year, every day, suddenly you notice there's something wrong with your spine (maybe you feel pain in your arms when you sneeze) - same thing with global warming, by very small pieces for a very long time it gets worse...
Maybe some people who turned 18 and buyed their own cars will think something bad about me, but I don't care.
Today world allows you to live your life without thinking of others, but it is not possible to live like that anymore...
And the music thing...sapere aude
So, the easiest thing one can do is wait for spring/summer and plant at least 2 trees
Yes and let's become a vegetarians also everybody!
It's Oxygen, then Silicon. Iron is about 8th.

EDIT: You're actually correct, by mass Iron is the most abundant. The figures above are by number of atoms.
