Well I would just like to throw my idea into the ring about what might cause global warming rather than just the big bad Americans.
When a star dies it expands and then colapses in on itself causing a black hole and eventually it can get so pressuized that some of the energy escapes thru the hole much like juice from an orange if you squese it to tightly. And from this it greats to large pulse beams of plasma, and they shoot out in direct opposite of each other and if they were to hit a planet directally at ten light years a way it would vaporize the planet and destroy all life. At 100 light years away it would cause the ozone and cause the polar ice caps to melt almost imediately as well as cause the CO2 levels to sky rocket expnetially, and emit leathal ultra violet radiation, as well as alot of other symptoms of global warming. So I submit to you that it could be possible that if we were to be hit perfectally by one of these pulses at say 1000 or even 1500 light years away we could experience low levels of these damages but would be in suchsubtile amouts that we would probably not be able to detect or might not figure out the cause of the problem. And since these pulse can only be detected for a few fractions of a second, and there traces can only be spotted for a few minutes after wards it makes chances slim to nill taht we could catch them.

Originally posted by Hank ReardenInteresting observation, but do you have a link to look at more closely?

I hear people getting upset about the US dragging it's feet about doing anything about it but I've never heard people just blame America.
Originally posted by Hank ReardenPlasma entering the earths atmosphere, even at small amounts, would be quite similar to what the sun does all the time at the aurora. It wouldn't lead to CO2 rises though, simply an increased level of free radicals. Also, if it was pointing at us directly but powerful enough to cause the effects we're seeing, the chances of it being found would actually be quite high.

Interesting theory, but I think it needs a few bugs worked out first.
Also, the increased level of UV radiation on earth is actually not an effect linked with global warming, it's a separate emissions issue where the ozone layer shrinks. That's been measured and we know what caused it, because it's healing... slowly... since the ban on CFC's in refrigeration and air conditioning systems.

and he actually says something strong enough to obliterate us could escape a black hole.(nothing but X rays escape a black hole).
and he says a sun collapses into a black hole which is untrue(only a sun that would create a white dwarf 1,4 bigger than our sun collapses into a black hole.)
and that energy will go in all directions(thus weakening itself), not a concentrated beam. if it were a concentrated beam of energy, do you have any idea what would be the odds of it hitting us from a distance of light years away?
so hank, have you been drinking? ok so i am being mean, i don't really want to yell at you, you stated your point of view quite politely(unlike some). so like agryson, i telll you "hmm, interesting but work out the bugs before presenting a theory"
better luck next time

They say that when a large enough star (not a sun since technically there is only one sun that we know of because to be a sun it needs planets obiting around it) swells up then begins to collapse in on its self it has such presure that some of the material escapes into two beams (not all over the place) directally opposite of each other, which they have proff that these happen you can probablly find a couple journal articals on this if you look. I first hear of this in a I think it was a August 2006 artical in Discovery magizine (it had Einstiens face on the cover.)
Add talk about odds what are the odds that we could exist what are the odds that everything just so happened to work perfectally to create life on this dirt ball of a planet? And since we have been able to see some of these since the 1970's they obviously can be close enough to so see so why not hit us directly?
And no I haven't been drinkin' in at least a week or two but I have been doing a lot of fishing.

How's the fishing up in Galt's Gulch?😉
Originally posted by Hank Reardenhere are the odds. taken down to scale, the earth is the head of a needle situated in paris and the sun is a beach ball in new york. try to hit the head of a needle with an energy beam emmited randomly from the surface of that beach ball. you have an infinity of points from which you could shoot that ray, only one is correct. even if you would situate the earth and the sun on the same plane and restrict that ray to only shoot from the diameter of the sun, on path that it is contained in that plane, you would still have an infinity of points(infinity of points on a circle as well)

plus the distinct possibility that nothing as powerful could ever be emitted by anything so that it reaches our planet with sufficient force so as to cause damage.
so i would say it is pretty much impossible.
