Today as a guest on The Howard Stern Show, Governor Schwarzenegger told of his solution to Global Warming. Working with NASA scientists, he came up with the perfect solution. Fire up thousands of rockets to move the Earth further away from the Sun. We are saved!
Actually, it was an impersonator who said this, but amid all the other hysteria, it makes just as much sense.

Hell, it makes MORE sense that letting the "U.N." get their grubby little hands involved in it!

Meh, I believe nanoengines are going to convert thermal energy to electrical energy soon enough, so we'll have to pass laws limiting such things to prevent the next ice age.

So we're good. Sometimes, though, I do wonder about the increasing CO_2 level and the decreasing O_2 level, both of which are getting worse at increasing rates, with regards to other things, such as breathing. Not that the human body needs a balance to maintain its pH or anything.

PS-
I'd just like to point out that the dinosaurs, as we know them to be, would suffocate in today's atmosphere. A lot of prehistoric creatures would.. just not nearly as much oxygen in the air anymore. So, I suppose, if things kept going that way, it'd be like a million years before our descendents had to start worrying about that. But, it's not the same anymore. There's tons of large animals- humans- packed into very dense areas like never before- cities. We have constant fires going, and our counterbalances, such as forests, are just wearing away.

I'm not so afraid of global warming, to be honest. I'm afraid of suffocating. Honestly, I'm a little unsure as to why this isn't portrayed as a bigger issue, as I can't recall anyone else ever even mentioning it. But just what are we going to do with our increasing oxygen demands and our decreasing oxygen output when we were already lossing it from the atmosphere? =/

you will barely know it.

First you get like a tunnel vision, then you get the best high you ever had with total euphoria, everything is funny, next stage is a stupor, finally you just nod off then bye bye.

Too many oxygen breathers tends to be self-correcting. After a while there are less of them when the oxygen begins to run out.

There is this little problem with the solution though, called the Gravitational Constant.
In order to move the Earth farther away and keep it in an orbit farther away from the sun, you would need to adjust the speed the earth orbits the sun. Here's the number you need to work with, LOL

6.67300 × 10-11 m3 kg-1 s-2
