What Happened to the Red Planet?

Mars

Yesterday I was watching Supreme Master Television via Sopcast and happened to hear something interesting about Mars. This is too interesting not to share.

What happened to the Red Planet? It seems the reason why Mars is the way it is right now was because of climate change. A recent article published by the New York Times reported that a team of researchers at the NASA Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland, USA, revealed that they’ve discovered “plume of methane gas rose from the surface of Mars.” The scientists ruled out subsurface cows and believe it may be caused by bacteria. There may be another explanation, according to Supreme Master Ching Hai when she was asked if the recently discovered methane on Mars may be related to people living underground:

Could be, could be. Yes. Because they have to pump faucet gases from their activities from underground to the surface of Mars so that they can detox and purify the air that they breathe.

Master Ching Hai said that the Martians also sent two messages to the people on earth:

There were two messages. The first one is from the Council of the People. And there are only two words from them, “Be virtuous.” And the second message is from the Chairman of the People. He said, “Save your home before it’s too late.” Save your home before it’s too late, that’s what they said.

This is some pretty interesting and eye-opening information. Whether you believe it or not, it’s still fascinating to listen to. Hoping to catch something more about Mars, I tuned in today, and this was what heard on Supreme Master Television a little while ago during the news segment:

The mass extinction came. They die, not only humans, but the animals also. They die by two main poisonous gases, namely, hydrogen sulfide and nitrous oxide, plus methane as the third course. Sulfide and methane from the livestock begun to warm the climate and then triggered more other gases from the ocean, from permafrost, and glacier around their planet. Just like what is happening to our planet right now.

 The destruction happened too fast and no one can help anyone. Only 0.2% of them escaped, around 2 millions, into the underground caves. And that’s how they survive.

Wow. I heard that before about hydrogen sulfide and nitrous oxide. An article by Science Daily in 2005 mentioned that hydrogen sulfide played a role the mass extinction on earth millions of years ago:

Volcanic eruptions in Siberia 251 million years ago may have started a cascade of events leading to high hydrogen sulfide levels in the oceans and atmosphere and precipitating the largest mass extinction in Earth’s history, according to a Penn State geoscientist.

And just this past December, an article in Oceanus talked about nitrous oxide as “Another Greenhouse Gas to Watch”:

There’s a greenhouse gas whose concentration is on the rise because of human activities. But it’s not the one you’d expect: it’s nitrous oxide (N2O), also known as laughing gas. It’s been accumulating in the atmosphere since the 1700s, and it’s powerful and persistent. One molecule of N2O has the same greenhouse warming power of 300 molecules of carbon dioxide. Once that N2O molecule gets into the upper atmosphere, it can stay there for more than 100 years before it’s destroyed naturally.

Where exactly does nitrous oxide come from? According to the EPA, it’s produced naturally and by humans:

Primary human-related sources of N2O are agricultural soil management, animal manure management, sewage treatment, mobile and stationary combustion of fossil fuel, adipic acid production, and nitric acid production. Nitrous oxide is also produced naturally from a wide variety of biological sources in soil and water, particularly microbial action in wet tropical forests.

I didn’t know much about greenhouse gases before. I used to not believe in global warming and climate change. But the evidence is too overwhelming to ignore, and it’s coming from all over the world, and now from Mars. Seriously, I really hope and pray that we can save our planet for ourselves and not end up like the Red Planet. Imagine living life underground your entire life!
