They don’t all have to be eaten
Still… there’s a dystopian sci-fi story in there somewhere…
about a certain walrus and carpenter?
You can preserve any oysters that are not purchased to be eaten fresh and raw.
Asians and New Englanders and others have been preserving oysters for centuries.
Not that we know the cause yet
That mega-tsunami speculation was debunked, right?
Just in case, I’m hoping for later…

Just, uh, how different are we talking here?
Well we add about 3 to 4 Gigatons of Carbon per year. So 1/10,000 of that release but if we keep it up for 10,000 years we would be in the ballpark and they were talking over 15000 years…
Read that carefully and let it sink in. We are currently emitting CO2 at a rate that exceeds the greatest extenction event in the history of the Earth, The Great Dying. What it took the Siberian traps 15k years to accomplish, we could exceed in 10k.
Great, it was sooner:
Cue the tsunami theory stories in the news…

A volcano erupted on the Spanish Canary Island of La Palma
