Does anyone know that ozone is a huge threat for human health as well? In big altitudes, it has a positive effect, because it acts like a protective screen against ultraviolet radiation. But in large cities, the smog that results from polluting is transformed into ozone, which is dangerous for the lungs. Once inhaled, it can lead to a lot of respiratory diseases, and it can also worsen the symptoms and sensibility of asthmatics to certain allergens. That's why it is advicing to avoid long walks at noon hours in summer, exactly when ozone concentration is maximal. But, even when toxic, this gase is vital for people on Earth, that's why it is very important to preserve it...

It's been happening. With any three towers, the company / govt / scientists can pinpoint and track your location down to a very small area. And, it need not involve you making active calls or texting. Your phone is checking in with the towers periodically, at the least. Newer phones allow ever more trackability, as well. Ever played with Google Maps on your cellphone/smartphone??? Its Google -- not the govt -- and even if your phone doesnt support GPS, they are able to figure out YOUR LOCATION IN REAL TIME within a few blocks using some Google'y calculations they've worked out.. Which is to say, even some dot-com can track you easily enough, even lacking all the access/tools that the telco or govt would have access to...

"I like how they wanted the physics department to go through the ethics board about this. The team broke no law, got no personal information, and didnt know exact locations. If there are 6 cell towers in even a place the size of vermont, youd have no clue where the phone was."

A scientifically unethical study need not violate any law. In disciplines like psychology, the ethics requirements are much more stringent than simply, "Don't break the law".

There's always the secnario of Jesus Christ where he comes to save his chosen people and to begin the battle of Armageddon.

Or theres also the zombie idea where some incurable disease causes savagery to rule over the mind of the afflicted causing them to become bloodhtirsty and attack each other.

And the world could even destroy itself by some mad scientist who just wants to watch the world burn.

3. It is quite strange to see that people worry more about the way they die than about the way they live. Is our living so bad or it’s just easier to imagine something bad than to look for possible solutions of existing problems? We can make guesses. Starting from Adam and Eve people wanted to know what they were not supposed to know. Unknown always attracted us, no one can deny that. But still such apocalyptic scenarios should be better used in film-making. They can hardly help us to solve our everyday problems.
