That thing reads like an Onion story.
you've been warned...
Aliens may destroy humanity to protect other civilisations, say scientists
Rising greenhouse emissions could tip off aliens that we are a rapidly expanding threat, warns a report
It may not rank as the most compelling reason to curb greenhouse gases, but reducing our emissions might just save humanity from a pre-emptive alien attack, scientists claim.
Watching from afar, extraterrestrial beings might view changes in Earth's atmosphere as symptomatic of a civilisation growing out of control – and take drastic action to keep us from becoming a more serious threat, the researchers explain.

Just to be clear - this isn't climate scientists saying this but crazy alien scientists.
The article had *the* most hilarious picture to go with their article, and you didn't bother putting it in the OP????
Shame on you....
AT-AT-AT_AT AAAT!!This highly speculative scenario is one of several described by a Nasa-affiliated scientist and colleagues at Pennsylvania State University that, while considered unlikely, they say could play out were humans and alien life to make contact at some point in the future.
Shawn Domagal-Goldman of Nasa's Planetary Science Division and his colleagues compiled a list of plausible outcomes that could unfold in the aftermath of a close encounter, to help humanity "prepare for actual contact".
In their report, Would Contact with Extraterrestrials Benefit or Harm Humanity? A Scenario Analysis, the researchers divide alien contacts into three broad categories: beneficial, neutral or harmful.
"Do not run, we are your friends...."
Shamelessly ridiculous.
lol
The Guardian and its usual BS stories
sorry. I didn't want to detract from the severity of the issue.The article had *the* most hilarious picture to go with their article, and you didn't bother putting it in the OP????
Shame on you....
If the aliens wait for the so-called "tipping points" to occur, then we have nothing to fear.
Attempts to cover it up.This article was amended on 19 August 2011. The subhead said the report was "for Nasa". This has been corrected.
If they're so smart, they'll probably kill black surgeons first
Or if they have your research skills they'll believe nothing is happening at all.
is The guardian like World news here in the US?
why do ppl even read that ?
That's not what I believe. I believe nothing MUCH is happening.
Wow....Darrin and Rick Perry agree....now that's some scary right there....
Naaaa....
They would just put a stop to quota systems.
