#11 - The North Pole is drier, so it would be more appropriate to say the Atacama is the driest spot on /land/

Cally,
I heard it was a place in Antarctica (could have been a misread) that had no record of precipitation in many decades, so perhaps a better title would be "One of the top driest places on earth" with the actual info.

#2 is completely wrong. The lithosphere (crust and upper mantle) has different densities of mass spread around the globe. The densest are called cratons, which are ancient continental remnants formed by surviving many cycles of tectonic activity. Think supercontinents, like Pangaea. These heavier masses create more gravitational pull the the newer, lighter areas. (flat-Earthers- just ignore all this)

Survives for 4.54 billion years and scientist predict it's all over in a few more years?

Lou,
First of all, just because something existed for a long time, that doesn't mean it can't be destroyed in seconds.
I mean, most oil today was formed as far back as 252 million years ago. But a little flame is enough to make it disappear pretty quickly.
And no one says the Earth will be destroyed in a few years except a few right wing Christians that believe the apocalypse will come soon because a black man was president and most rational humans accept LGBTQ people now.
All scientists are saying (and have proved) is that things are steadily getting worse with our environment, that we are the cause, and we can also make it better simply by not pumping huge amounts of waste in sea, air, and on land. Why is it such a horrible thing to change our ways a little?
Just improve our environment because we see our current methods are bad for everyone.
We've been doing it since the beginning of civilization.
From not relieving ourselves in the same town river we get our drinking water from to the The Dust Bowl when we learned how we farmed was unsustainable.
So yeah. Please stop lying about these things. Or educate yourself a little more.

Deborah, Without directly saying it you tell us how crazy you are every time you comment. It’s sad TBH - unable to think for yourself so you just regurgitate what you hear on MSNBC. Just FYI, normal people think you are a lunatic.

Dorcus,
If that was the case, you could easily explain WHY what I say is crazy.
But you know what I see every time I comment and back that up with verifiable facts and logic?
Someone like you that can't refute any of my points, or gives a reason why I'm wrong that I always explain is wrong and why. And instead of explaining why my points are wrong, you and people like you can only resort to petty name calling as if that actually proves something.
If I can explain why I'm right and you can't explain why you are right or I'm wrong, why do you still think you're right?
Look, you can believe whatever you like. But when someone spreads clear lies and nonsense, I will reply with reason, logic, and facts that you are always free to logically and in a civil manner try to discuss.
And if that is lunacy in your or anyone else's eyes, that's completely fine with me.
But reacting like this only proves how wrong you really are.
