No, a single nuclear bomb could not wipe out the Earth. However, it could cause catastrophic damage to a specific area and have long-lasting consequences such as radiation effects and environmental contamination.
Both global warming and nuclear fuels have potential dangers. Global warming can lead to widespread environmental disruption and impact ecosystems. Nuclear fuels carry the risk of catastrophic accidents like meltdowns and long-term environmental contamination, but also provide low-carbon energy that can help mitigate global warming. Both issues require careful consideration and management to minimize risks.
The Earth stays magnetized because of its outer core made of molten iron and nickel. The movement of these metals generates electrical currents that create the Earth's magnetic field. This field protects the planet from solar wind and cosmic radiation.
In the Epic of Gilgamesh, Enlil, the god of earth, wind, and air, decided to send a flood to wipe out humanity because he was disturbed by the noise and overpopulation of the city. He viewed humans as a nuisance and wanted to reduce their numbers.
The most likely cause of a rise in the average temperature of the Earth's atmosphere in the future is the continued emission of greenhouse gases, primarily from human activities such as burning fossil fuels and deforestation. These gases trap heat in the atmosphere, leading to global warming and climate change.
"Obliterate" means to destroy completely or wipe out entirely. It suggests a forceful removal or eradication of something to the point where no trace remains.
