Flash 55 - Remember When

~ click the images to make them biggerer ~

The Little Ice Age which lasted between the 16th and 19th centuries in the Northern Hemisphere was caused by lowered atmospheric CO2 emissions from the decreased population caused by the Black Death and by Christopher Columbus not following proper import/export regulations. Based on this, we can say that today’s global warming is because of antibiotics.

  8. Antibiotics will be the end of us all, one way or another!

    (Unless a giant meteor hits first! Or the giant geothermal caldera lurking under Yellowstone blows its top! Or the machines take over! Or...)

  15. Yeah, maybe not - but we can at least say over-use of antibiotics is causing superbugs.
