There has been lots of regularly reported info out for at least 8 years now. No one reads it, or has taken it seriously, even though there is plenty of scientific data behind it and has been. This is the most significant problem of all for humanity and for this planet, but people have focused on other s..t all these years.
The only real change in the last decade is that the whole process of global warming is happening EVEN FASTER than the direst predictions of a decade ago. The only reason people are now paying attention is that is is costing them money or might do so. And by the time that happens, it is too late. Actually, unless science comes up with a way to undo or mitigate drastically what has ALREADY happened, it is too late. Some people will probably survive in the end. But it will get mighty ugly along the way. If they can find a way to change this scenario, that would be the age of enlightenment, really and truly a miracle. The bulk of our resources should go to that - a planetary race, a competition, to figure this out. That is where we are at, whether the public gets this or not. Living off the grid, buying a Prius, recycling, driving less - all are nice and helpful but don't make a dent in the catastrophe that is going on right now. Let's change the topic - I spent nearly half a year in a real funk about this in 2006. I had to make a decision to not read more about it or think too much on it. --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, "Buck" <dhamiltony2k5@...> wrote: > > > "..it's as if no-one is listening to the scientific community," said Corinne > Le Quere, director of the Tyndall Centre for Climate Change Research at the > University of East Anglia. > > "I am worried that the risks of dangerous climate change are too high on our > current emissions trajectory," Prof Le Quere said. > > > > > > > > > > > > > > --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, "Buck" wrote: > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > Recently, the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) reported that > > > > > > greenhouse gases in the atmosphere hit a new record high in 2011. > > > > > > > > > > > > > > Data show that global CO2 emissions in 2012 hit 35.6bn tonnes, a > > > > > > > 2.6% increase from 2011 and 58% above 1990 levels. > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > In its annual Greenhouse Gas Bulletin, the organisation said that > > > > carbon dioxide levels reached 391 parts per million in 2011. > > > > > > > > The report estimated that carbon dioxide (CO2) accounted for 85% of the > > "radiative forcing" that led to global temperature rises. > > > > Other potent greenhouse gases such as methane also recorded new highs, > > according to the WMO report. > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > Non-meditators are the real carbon polluters behind the destruction > > > > > of the global climate.
