In a balloon race Friday two American's made a rapid decent over the Adriatic sea because of rough weather. Although the balloon was very well equipped with survival gear such as,a satellite phone, VHF radios, a radar transponder and two mobile phones, their survival is at this point said to be "unlikely"
Do you think that the assumptions made by race officials, calling their survival unlikely, is accurate?

Scientists are studying a new type of genetically altered plants to see if they could help with the issue of global warming. These trees have been altered to be more efficient in that the amount of carbon they pull from the air is much greater. These new plants can also be altered to absorb more sunlight.
Do you think that creating more efficient trees will improve the global warming problem?
