As if this generation will not be short of scaremongering supply, the “Oxygen Crisis” is now being concocted as the latest alarming scare threatening the existence of living things. Peter Tatchell of The Guardian expounded the viewpoint and implications of the book “The Oxygen Crisis” which is still being drafted and in the imaginative mind of the author. Quoted hereunder are parts of Tatchell’s words:
“The rise in carbon dioxide emissions is big news. It is prompting action to reverse global warming. But little or no attention is being paid to the long-term fall in oxygen concentrations and its knock-on effects.
Compared to prehistoric times, the level of oxygen in the earth's atmosphere has declined by over a third and in polluted cities the decline may be more than 50%. This change in the makeup of the air we breathe has potentially serious implications for our health. Indeed, it could ultimately threaten the survival of human life on earth, according to Roddy Newman, who is drafting a new book, The Oxygen Crisis.”
Soon, the yet unwritten book will bear the stamp of “imprimatur” and the new United Nations-Intergovernmental Panel on Oxygen Crisis (UN-IPOC) –from Greenie Watch- will certify it as “peer reviewed and undergone a scientific consensus.” For now, big time sponsors are being contacted. Also, they are eying another politician to be awarded a Nobel Peace Prize for scientific achievements.
