The Limestone Problem Evolution Can’t Explain

In this episode of Hydroplate Theory University, we examine the origin of Earth’s enormous limestone deposits and the problems they present for conventional geological explanations. We look at how limestone forms, the carbon dioxide problem associated with its formation, massive limestone layers such as those found in the Grand Canyon, and the evidence for rapid deposition. Then we examine Dr. Walt Brown’s Hydroplate Theory and its proposed explanation for how vast quantities of limestone could have formed during the catastrophic events surrounding the global Flood. How does the conventional model explain all this limestone—and does the Hydroplate Theory offer a better explanation?

Episode 011:

How The Hydroplate Theory Solves the Mystery of Earth’s Limestone

How did Earth get roughly 40 million cubic miles of limestone without producing catastrophic amounts of carbon dioxide? Kevin Lea and Bill Wells examine how Hydroplate Theory explains limestone formation and why discoveries on the ocean floor—including hydrothermal vents, white smokers, and the Lost City—may provide evidence for the model.
