Sonwball it's a theory. They are not sure if it really happened.
There was one episode that was like: " What if humans disapearedr from Earth ?"
Solution for global warming ? 
They forgot about deactivate all nuclear reactors before, otherwise there would be hundreds of Chernobil disasters together.

Chernobyl isn't even that bad, all things considered.
So you have a few places where plants and animals *might* experience a slightly higher mutation rate than elsewhere, and in which they do sometimes get a little more cancer, but with no humans around to suppress populations, animals will thrive. Even around leaky old nuclear reactors (which mostly have failsafes built into them nowadays, anyway).

More like millenia. The antarctic ice cover has been growing for thousands of years.
But that growth is slowing down.
You don't look at absolutes, you look at trends. And that trend is showing a reversal, as losses of ice in some areas look set to outstrip general gains. |

It depends? Years ago I read a science fiction story where scientists declared that the Sun must be extinguished for 24 hours, because reasons. Of course, the Sun fails to reignite. Maybe that was the story that had the last guy thawing out liquid oxygen over a campfire. But that might have been the one where the Sun lost it's gravity and the Earth slingshot out of the Solar system.
Antipodal tsunamis followed by no more seasons. Else it explodes and that's worst.

Al gore said it was based on a computer modeling.
We already know they never ever share source data for global warming computer models with the general public.
Probably because you can program computer modeling to literally show anything you want and that's what they did.

Any model should accurately predict past conditions. If the model can predict historic conditions accurately, it gives more credibility as to predicting future conditions. However, if it fails to predict past conditions, the model should be thrown out.
