Aridity: The ‘existential crisis’ redefining life on EarthFive billion people could be affected by 2100Riyadh, Saudi Arabia – Even as dramatic water-related disasters such as floods and storms intensified in some parts of the world, more than three-quarters of Earth’s land became permanently drier in recent decades, UN scientists warned today in a stark new analysis.
Yes. It is part of the surface, but it is not “land” by the common definition.
what is the definition of “common definition”, though? that’s a wishy-washy stand, is it not?
the first dictionary definition of the word states that land is the solid part of the surface of the earth, which is contrary to your distinction between “land” and “surface”. that’s a more solid and substantial position, is it not?
Is this a joke? I genuinely can’t imagine you being serious right now.
well, i’ve provided a bonafide source. whereas you’ve provided only your opinion.
i’m not sure from whence this righteous outrage arises.
i would be happy to understand any issue in my source or any contrary sources that support your opinion that the seabed is definitely not “land”.
No, I’m a different guy. It’s just really hard to believe you could be serious. That’s sad.
