I have written about this many times before but it is still relevant. Because this is what may end the human race on earth. The Winds.
Why?
Because we have ways to survive deluges. We have ways to survive Droughts through desalination of sea water.
But, we don't have good ways at present to survive the winds (unless more of us find ways to move underground and to raise food underground or in greenhouses that are strong enough to withstand winds over 100 mph at any time of the year.
Why will winds increase this century?
Two things make wind primarily:
1. the turning of the earth
2. heat rising
Because of global warming heat will rise faster which causes winds to move quicker and quicker (inside tornadoes and hurricanes) and just storm winds in general worldwide.
When winds go above 100 mph (like in the Caribbean) they take all leaves from everything (which caused many many Caribbean Islands to be abandoned by all people last fall because everything was destroyed and all green plant life was gone. Even trees had no leaves to stay alive on some islands.
This is just going to increase and increase all over the world during this century.
And mostly only technological rich civilizations will survive this.
But, digging into the side of hills or building cement houses with dirt burms over the top might help if you have steel shutters to shut out the wind from blowing out your windows too. But, if you do this design for 300 mph winds which means your house might last until 2050 to 2070 before the steel shutters would be blown off and your furniture blown out the windows along with any people inside.
Digging straight down is okay to but don't do this in a flood plain or even a 1000 year flood plain.
(think of how many places have already seen 1000 year floods in the last 20 years just here in the U.S. let alone the rest of the world.
So, what I'm saying here is that the human race can survive (about 1/4 or less than are alive today) if they move underground in some form soon enough to adapt to all these changes in time.
At 300 mph I don't think any skyscrapers on earth can withstand winds this strong. But, we will see them by 2050 to 2070 almost everywhere on earth during some months of the year.
And regarding people walking around in 300 mph winds (I wouldn't try to do this even with a rope tied to a tree, a car or even something cement. Why? Because branches and fences will go right through you along with pieces of straw and rocks.
This is what's coming here on earth in the 2nd half of this century that the human race isn't prepared for.
To the best of my ability I write about my experience of the Universe Past, Present and Future
