Global Warming Could Make Growing Snake Amounting Bus

At a time when the Earth experienced global warming in the past , while the giant reptile is being gnomish mammals . Comparison , if the snake was a horse , then the horse is only as big as a cat .
In 2013 ScienceWriter conference in Gainesville , Jonathan Bloch , a paleontologist at the Florida Museum of Natural History reveals that if carbon emissions continue to grow and hotter Earth , in the future , so the snake can reincarnate a giant creature again , grows to the size of a bus .
Bloch look back period called the Paleocene - Eocene Thermal Maximum , about 55 million years ago . In that period , the Earth was warming , global temperature increase of 6 degrees Celsius within a period of 200,000 years .
At that time the turtle species live Carbonemys cofrinii . Fossil analysis reveals , the tortoise is very large , skull reached 24 cm and 172 cm shells . In addition , the tortoise also has powerful jaws , capable of eating crocodile .
At five million years after the extinction of the dinosaurs , 60 million years ago , there are snakes that size to the size of a bus , named Titanoboa . Heavy snakes live in the past in South America it reached 1.25 tons .While the gigantic reptiles that period , another warming period that occurred 53 million years ago , mammals dwarfed . It was said by a University of Michigan paleontologist Philip Gingerich .
" The fact that it happened twice increases our confidence that we see cause and effect , that an interesting response from global warming is stunting the body size of mammals , " Gingerich said as quoted by the Daily Mail , Tuesday ( 11/05/2013 ) .
Gingerich said , shrinking the size of the mammalian body is a natural response to rising temperatures . Increased temperatures complicate mammals maintain body temperature and more difficult to find food . The effects of global warming in the future for mammals actually predictable .
The study revealed that in the period called the Eocene Thermal Maximum 2 ( 53.7 million years ago ) which lasted for 80,000 to 100,000 , the horse simply dwarfed by the size of a cat .
According to Bloch , if the level of carbon dioxide in the Earth continues to grow , what happened in the past could be repeated . Super snake species may appear . Who knows what will happen in humans .
Bloch will continue to explore a variety of fossils to determine the rise of mammal species in the past . According to him , an understanding of what happened in the past the key to preparing for the future .
Bloch , as reported by NBC News on Tuesday , revealing that the Earth is going to naturally have a mechanism to reduce carbon dioxide . However , it would be better if people could also play a role .
According to Bloch , when a man is able to play , then that man definitely would not lose money due to global warming . Events that occur on global warming in the past would be a sort of guide for humans .
