Theocles of Saturn

This helps a lot, thanks for the debate :)

Ah, I see

CME I mean

What is a CAME?

@Olga I'm stumped

Noted. I'll probably have to change it to a chixalub impactor even sorta thing. Like first a disease, then comet/asteroid, then volcanic eruptions, with the final addition of a solar flare

You make an excellent point about the impracticality of the plague. I'll change it

Thanks :)

True enough, all your most recent point, but that why I added the fungal plague

Um, a solar storm is not your average natural disaster.

@Olga China is communist by name only these days, China is the world's largest market with some of the largest buinesses in the world

But can the governments react that quickly? see my earlier quote. Also what international help? Most of the world's international help comes from the affected. The unaffected are poorer countries

@Olga I know, it wasn't global because they where in their own little interdependence bubble

@Olga ?

@Olga but in these days, their is democracy and human rights preventing people from doing that

@Olga have you ever heard of the bronze age collapse? Highly interdependant states annihilated without a trace due to system collapse. No system has EVER become as extensive, depended on, or wide spread as our global socio-economic system, never ever

@Olga let us not forget that the ussr was communist, it could literally just pull labor out of it's behind. In this senario , all the big players are out, the world is as interdependant as ever ( p.s. I'm a slow typer)

@Olga if the world economy collapses overnight due to emp storm, everyone on Earth is screwed, this would be an economic collapse so hard it would make the Great depression look like a minor recession

@Olga You are overly optimistic. See, if the most developed countries in the world have power wiped out, what do you think will happen to the world economy?

@Olga And Excerpt from The Week " Peter Pry, executive director of the federal EMP Task Force on National and Homeland Security, told Congress this year that a major EMP could cause widespread "starvation, disease, and societal collapse" that could lead to the deaths of tens of millions of people. "

@Olga You misunderstand, 40% of the World's power grids are out, ie most of the countries on the sunlit side of earth have no power. Assuming this is winter may to august, almost none of the countries in the northern hemisphere have power at all. It is the European countries, the U.S. that have zero power, nation's like Mexico, Brazil, Arabia, and India have some power, and nation's like South Africa and Argentina are mostly unaffected.

@Olga It would. A third of the developed worlds population is liable to starve to death within the first month , military or no military. Mass starvation is how you get mobs and riots. Also , who will feed the military? Who will pay the military after the economy collapses? How will they stop secondary epidemic? How will they function properly without satilites, helicopters, vehicles, ships? How can they stop a black death level epidemic while dealing with all that? Fungicidal resistance can evolve , and the ability to lengthen telomeres doesn't directly correlate with epidemiology.

@sphennings It's called a joke, jeez.

I'd just like to point out that I definitely, for certain didn't make an entire world just to solve a math problem on my homework.

The point is not whether ants are doing fine without fire, the ants and wasps of my question need to eventually become equally as advanced as the scientists, therefore, they need fire. Your does not attempt to answer this aspect of the question.
