I'm from Ohio, USA. This thread is very close to being political, because there are two sides to choose from, just like politics. 50 Million years ago, when the big crater was still steaming, it was so hot on this planet that we had palm trees and crocodiles above the arctic circle. This planet will continue to change, regardless if there are people here or not. Long after humans are extinct, this planet will still be here, going through changes as throughout history.
