Yet more proof that there are phenomenal idiots out there. Maybe several multi-megaton nuclear explosions at a certain point could do it. But likely not. Besides, if the earth were to into a higher orbit, it would experience a massive cooling effect, which would likely cause several species of plants and animals to die because of an inability to adapt quicly enough. I'd like to see their "scientific research." Mainly so I can laugh at them for being idiots and calling themselves scientists. Oh, so they have some "evidence" on their website. Their website. If you want credibility, get several independent researchers. Oh, and I'm sick and tired of people who ignore the fact that "global warming" is actually part of a natural heating-cooling cycle that the earth goes through. True, it has been exagerrated somewhat with human industry, but still. I just lost more hope for the human race.

Hehee, says at their site if they get 600 million people to jump, it'll work. *snrrk* It's hard enough to organize *600* people. <img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... /laugh.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='laugh.gif' />

[...unWARP!!!] Good evening. It is said that Mao Tsedong said that if the 1 billion Chinese got together and stomped on the ground at the same time, the rest of the world would have a hard time. Maybe that's when that Chinese dragon stepped in and said, "Look, eggplant head..." Zacatepngolas! Until next time, remember: I AM THE J.A.M. Good evening. [WARP!!!]

I love how even if what they say is true, they get 300 million on each side of the planet to simply pressure the core of the planet rather then move it. Not like getting that many people to jump will work anyways.

Ech, I don't see why everyone's jumping up and down getting all angry over this...

"Let's hop"? Never thought I'd see a typo that doubled as a pun. <img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... s/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif' />

Blaak, it might be a good idea, if the world gets a different orbit and collides with the sun or something and we all die, then that'll solve everyone's problems won't it? Or... not... ish.

Oddly enough, the problem still doesn't work. Jumping from the planet's surface will not produce a net accelleration unless you can escape the pull of its gravity. The entire time those 300 million people are airborne, they are pulling the earth toward them. The center of mass will move with the jumpers, but will return to its original position right when they land. Now, if they want to change Earth's orbit, the most effective way would be to round up all the dumb fools and fire them out rocket cannons toward the sun. The center of mass will still follow the same orbit, only that mass of sunburned folk will count too.
