Atlantic Ocean Disappearing!!!

With all this talk about carbon footprints and global warming, there is one more Inconvenient Truth that needs to be exposed: the Atlantic Ocean is disappearing! Where is Al Gore when we really need him?


About 250 million years from now, the plates on which the present day continents rest are again projected to reposition themselves so that a single landmass dominates. The above simulation from the PALEAOMAP Project shows this giant landmass: Pangea Ultima. At that time, the Atlantic Ocean will be just a distant memory, and whatever beings inhabit Earth will be able to walk from North America to Africa.

this is awesome. Imagine how good the fishing will be with all the old Atlantic fish, now trapped in that muc smaller lake! Geez, even I could catch something!

How can we trust all the trans-Atlantic speed records if the distance is getting shorter all the time?

What do you think are the long term effect of these types of shifts on the wind patterns?

This is a spoof. The mid-oceanic ridge is growing the Atlantic Ocean, not shrinking it.

Whaaat? The Atlantic is getting wider? How can we trust the trans-Atlantic speed records?
