Cosmos Induced Climate Change

Cosmos-Induced Climate Change

“Meanwhile cosmos-induced climate change has already turned out to be much more severe than any but a few scientists predicted. Africa’s major coastal cities, from Cairo to Lagos, have been partially or completely flooded, displacing tens of millions of people. China is almost totally inundated. If it wasn’t for billion-dollar flood defenses, the whole Europe would be an archipelago. And so on.

Though the latest rain had yet to come, the sea level had already raised dozens of meters. In the coastal reshaping that resulted, the islands of Java and Sumatra disappeared with part of Southeast Asia to form a great chain of is islands and much of Indonesia had simply vanished. Similarly Australia, Tasmania, and New Guinea were being transformed in into a long collar of tiny rocks.

In this unique, temporary geography, there were places where the Asian landmass became a vast sea separated from other parts by some rolling hills which had been mountains only a couple of months earlier.
