Just 40 more years
I just want to keep over-consuming energy and enjoying my modern bonbons for forty more years, forty-five at the outside. Then I'll stop, I promise. Can't we hold it together that long?

We've probably got some time beyond that.

Of course, the folks in northern Canada and Tierra Del Fuego may be about the only ones around if we're not careful. :-( Cheers, Scott. |

Not to worry . . .
Antarctica will have palm trees again.
Side note: Marsupials ruled South America (well, except for 12 foot high flightless, and very carnivorous, Terror Birds). One species managed to migrate across Antarctica (not so cold then and still attached to South America). A few of these possums apparently rafted across a narrow channel of water to Australia, which had already separated from Antarctica. Kangaroos and all the rest of the marsupials in Australia are descended from this one species of possum. |
