Week 8

The year of 7010 I was able to visit the city of San Diego in California. And Woah, what a difference there was literally 5,000 years from today 2019. I could barley recognize what had happened. Apparently, the human activity on earth had made all of San Diego covered in water. Due to all of the fossil fuels like oil and coal, it has increased the CO2 levels which increased temperatures roughly 3 degrees celsius. The burning process of this eventually cleared the land of its agriculture and increased the number of greenhouse gasses that are trapped in the lower atmosphere. Warmer conditions eventually lead to more and more evaporation and precipitation where San Diego became wetter. This particularly melted glacier which then, increased sea levels. Due to all this water that had infiltrated California, it created more fires and diseases. This then leads to something similar to the black plague, but its called the Marlin plague. The reasoning for this is because, specifically, the Marlin fish in SD all were dying back in the year of 5000 and at the moment, people didn’t know what the meaning of this was, but now as they discovered, while ocean water temperatures increased they were more prone to it and this fish group knew it first. Due to California's global warming conditions, the rest of the United States was furious because California, not only was carrying these diseases but they were creating even more trash. Because of all the water, basically, all of SD trash was going into the ocean. Eventually, the US created laws stating that California had to use products that were environmentally friendly. They also had to implement more things such as a clean water act. This then, they were able to utilize the bad water and it would go through a machine then, would create all clean water.
