[Portension: Future, Frivolity and Folly] Forget About A White Christmas: Global warming is here to stay. For those of you living in the US, you can expect this winter to be warmer than the 30 year norm, according to prediction by National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration meteorologists [via our new portender tennant: The Weather Observer].
[GREENIE WATCH] GREENIE THUG IN COURT A radical environmentalist ...: It seems perfectly logical that a warming of the Southern Oceans (as opposed to most of the Antarctic continent proper where temperatures have been decreasing) has led to higher levels of atmospheric moisture that eventually precipitates out over Antarctica. The authors caution though, that from their work alone, it is impossible to tell whether the observed snowfall increases are from natural climate variations or from a human-induced global warming.
[Theperiscope.blogs.com] The Periscope: Touching upon the Armenia-Azerbaijan problem over Nagorno-Karabakh, the Minister advised that the occupied territories of Azerbaijan including the 132 km - long area along the border between the mentioned territories and Iran remain out of control, that, according to him, poses a serious threat not only to Azerbaijan but also the whole Europe. He stressed the importance of urgent settlement of the conflict on the basis of the international law, and intensification of the efforts by international organizations including the European Union to this end.
[Thecatsdream.com] The Cat's Blog: Countries bordering the Mediterranean will suffer an increased risk of severe water shortages, forest fires, lost of agricultural land and an influx of potentially invasive species from the south. The economy and landscape of the Alpine regions are also vulnerable to increased temperatures because a warmer climate will cause the mountain snow lines to rise, the study found.
[Cambridge2000.com] Azara Blog: home page: On the point at hand, these studies mostly look atcorrelations, and there is a big difference betweencorrelation and causation,as the people who did this study seem to recognise but others do not. Also,the anti-abortion activists obviously don't care about the mental health ofpregnant women one way or the other (any more than the average member of thepublic), they just don't like abortion and will use any pretend excuse to try andstop it.
[Climateark.org] 11/9/2005 -- Global warming: Adapting to a new reality: As countries across Europe reduce production of greenhouse gases in order to fight climate change, scientists and citizens are discovering that effects of warming are already upon us. Irreversible warming is already happening, they say, and will continue for a century even if polluting emissions are controlled by the Kyoto Protocol, the international treaty aimed at limiting greenhouse gases.
