imagine earth with an indeed 50 50 split between mainlands and abysses our earth covered half by land and half by water how would this change the earth as you know it what new kinds of recesses could this make possible for you and what does the color of your pee have to do with this this is what if and then is what would be if the earth was partial land and half water when it comes to making life possible on a earth water is an absolute have that is why we look for alien life on worlds where liquid water could live when it comes to our own earth 71 of its face is covered by water utmost of that's in our five abysses together they form one global ocean now if you replaced nearly a quarter of our ocean water with land how soon would earth turn into just another breathless gemstone in space thanks to global warming earth's ocean situations are presently rising but if you wanted to balance the earth's land to water rate you'd see the ocean situations absolutely dip and not just a many measures but around three kilometers earth would look veritably different the regions around both the north and south poles would be fully dried out and every mainland on the earth would expand and not just a little either all this recently surfaced home around the world would be roughly equal to the current face areas of Asia Europe Africa and north America combined that would be an enormous quantum of unused space everything extending off the old beachfronts would be fairly flat but some of the areas that used to be deep ocean would reveal vast corridors and steep crevasses as you explored this new land you'd discover that the one global ocean would be no more all of the abysses would be separated from each other and all of the mainlands would be one connected mainland and this would be good news for elaboration early humans did not have any vessels or aeroplanes

we spread across the globe simply by walking venturing down from Africa some seventy thousand to one hundred thousand times ago we set up our way to Europe and Asia ultimately we were suitable to cross a land ground connecting Asia to the Americas conceivably as far back as 20 000 times ago with the 50 50 split in place you'd now be suitable to cover indeed more honed eventually you could take that around the world trip you've always pictured of all on your own two bases but this shifting balance of water and land wouldn't be all fun and games with so much lower water covering the face our ocean currents would be disintegrated and this would seriously destabilize the climate currents distribute the heat that is absorbed by the abysses around the globe dismembering them would mean indeed colder temperatures around the north and south poles while the formerly hot tropical regions would get indeed hotter climate change would speed up too each because abysses wouldn't be suitable to absorb so important carbon dioxide from the air that redundant carbon dioxide would blanket the earth and raise temperatures rain situations would also drop off and this would produce dangerous famines as well as new comeuppance in numerous inland areas so while there may be an cornucopia of new land available large stretches of earth could come uninhabitable shops creatures and humans would all need to acclimatize to being less dependent on water or at least start using it more efficiently water failure could affect in creatures evolving to be lower with further making the jump to a rigorously rapacious diet and sorely the cornucopia of life that moment's abysses support would struggle to survive and perhaps the most surprising consequence that you'd need to get used to is that your pee would probably change ever generally urine is made up of further than 90 water but with lower water in your diurnal life yours would come important darker and start to smell like ammonia I mean effects could be worse you could drain the abysses of every drop of water they've but that is a story for another adventure
