epirb: Meaning they (NK) won't be , unless they so much as point a nuke loaded missile at another country . North Koreans are not stupid , they would know what "MAD" means . Russians would not have wandered into half of Ukraine if the Ukraine's had nukes still .


Sticky situation if you ask me.

stringman: NK would not have to point a weapon at USA. all they would do is send up a bomb to explode over the US causing a EMP. which could cripple the electric grids cutting out all power and communications.
John that's most frightening.

I think an EMP would create larger chaos and lack of supplies than direct bombing over a city.

Also, the nuke would explode at a high altitude, far away from the anti-missile shield's coverage.

You're right Guzman, EMP, would be a total mess.

The oceans will once again be free of pollution, the air clean and the flora and fauna will again thrive...unfortunately not until the absence of man can this occur!
The Earth has all the time in the world...in the grand scheme of things man will have been a short term participant! blues

stringman: there is so much over kill weapons already, man won't be happy till he kills the world and every thing in it.



Och we're not going to destroy the world.

Real question is will humans survive with it??

lindsyjones: World leaders have reacted with anger after North Korea carried out its fifth and reportedly biggest nuclear test."

So does this mean that any country now can test nuclear weapons without regard to our environment ? More importantly how will it impact humanities' future? Anyone?

Which country is next? I'm sure if Korea can do this, the rest of the world can, right?

Yes.

Long overdue for an upgrade I do often wonder what will end the post-1980s plateau. The way that life hasn't improved in the last 30 years compared to all times since the industrial revolution where massive gains are to be expected constantly.

ChesneyChrist: Good times make bad people, that's trap of social progress. The generation of never had it so good wants to eat its young for an even earlier retirement and from the midst of insurance and safe suburbia it fantisises about war far away from the scene of combat.


Anyway, if we can survive today's old people the world is our oyster there'll be a decade or two of unparalleled social and technological progress like the 1950s and 1960s, and because of this our kids will never have it so good and they'll do the dirty on us. It's a thankless task remember what we call the greatest generation were sent to war by their parents and abandoned in nursing homes by their kids.

It's not simply the internet colouring perception, old people today really have two trains of thought - trivial and depressed. They're either not interested in politics at all and hopeless in the sense of trivial, and if they are interested in the world it's purely for the purpose of undoing it - a different kind of hopeless. Old people seemed to be trapped between two main drives - the impulse to frolic and the impulse to destroy. Now how do we reset that to what people were a long time ago? Is there a possibility for a new generation which can be interested without being angry?

It does manifest everywhere. There's been 1 thread on CS which I would qualify as materially resourceful 1 time where the exchange of views created a practical benefit but in the old days every other thing people said was to enhance utility. Not only were they more optimistic about the future they were also a font of day-to-day wisdom the things people said made helped them to deal with real world difficulty. The lucky generation never say anything helpful in a trying situation - considering the times you should get a lot of make do and mend, make your money go further, be a good neighbour threads - I see some of them on my Facebook - but in place of this you get games and apocalyptic prophecies on elderly CS.

In a, in terms of economic boost, high tech gadgets, travels and civil rights, it's all gone way up our human expectations. It us greatly improved. Imagine driverless cars. But for the same token, we can wipe out the whole if humanity in an instant.

Future of humanity, depends on peace!!

Let's be realistic, some dark forces are making chaos, disorders,

war and confusion around the world, a way to unite and conquer

and push the agenda of NWO, which is a threat to democracy and freedom.

I cannot see a real bright future, anyway we're

not yet in paradise! sad flower

Peace, of course. But it looks like war and chaos sells.
