Never have seen a Clemson balloon in nature - why?


Oct 14, 2018, 9:46 PM

Sad they stopped the balloon launch this year. Has anyone ever seen a Clemson balloon in nature? In their yard? In a pond? On a bus? On a train? Anywhere? Must be a lot of hungry animals gobbling them up very quickly? Maybe a researcher should've taken this up before they made the decision to end the balloon launch.

I've seen a couple of natural orange balloons.

It was an emotional decision, academia is run by leftist and almost all of their decisions are based on emotion.

You think scientists base their decisions on emotion?

I think you’ve been fake news’d

Good scientists don't. Unfortunately many "scientists" today analyze data with a bias to try to make it fit their hypothesis. IE, global warming, or is it cooling, we will just call it climate change.

You miss my point. I believe in climate change. Is it natural cycle or is it man made? In the 1970s scientists were warning of the next ice age. Now they are saying we are going to burn up. There very well Mau be man made climate change, but the data does not yet exist to prove it.

good afternoon captain hyperbole, actually scientist have been saying since the late 1950s that a ten percent change in the Atmospheric CO2 levels would be enough to melt both polar ice caps. We are well on track to achieving this because we do not listen and think we know everything.

but to say that scientists fudge data to achieve a result is laughable. No way we cure small pox, polio, land on the moon, or invent the microprocessor without a stern and strict scientific method. I doubt you even science though because it is not the people talking out of their behinds that are leading this country in innovation.

Clemson admin is run by corrupt leftist who will even allow one of the highest administrators in Clemson to commit physical assault and battery against a student and manufacture a fake racist incident on campus in order to make the black and minority student body feel afraid of rampant racism on campus in order to provide a "teachable moment" to the white student body.

Yup, Clemson OCES helped fabricate a "racist incident" a few years ago with the intent of making black students fearful of non-existent, fabricated racial violence and encourage them to protest and become hostile towards white students to "teach the white students a lesson".

if 100 balloons are launched then 100 balloons will land some where.

If we all promise to pick up and safely dispose of whatever remnants we come across, can we have our balloons back?

Because the sea turtles and shore birds crawl over 100 miles inland to feast on their favorite food, biodegradable Clemson balloons, leaving none for you to find. And it makes the snowflakes feel better about themselves by saving The Earth.

it does not happen because almost all of the 20k balloons magically disappear once they get too high up for you to see them.

You've never seen it so it must not be real. I see how it works. I'm glad we have this kind of expertise on board!

It's still we're still stuck on this issue, halfway through the season.

I'm not a scientist, but I'm pretty sure the balloons go up into the atmosphere, explode, and then that explosion creates a lot of carbon matter, which then in turn substantially contributes to climate change. Just think about all those hurricanes we were causing through the years.

Bc the poor turtles eat them within minutes of landing.
