That fact along with the fact the fossil fuels will inevitably run out, or at least become to cost intensive to extract, leads to the conclusion that humans must transition asap to clearer, renewable energy resources.Life on Planet Earthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07046073747417086907noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6399730406480392183.post-40313622895866519062011-12-14T13:37:37.183-04:002011-12-14T13:37:37.183-04:00....it might have even started BEFORE the end of t.......it might have even started BEFORE the end of the last ice age, which would have been the cause of the "end" of that age....Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6399730406480392183.post-17849484534106250572011-08-30T06:10:06.766-03:002011-08-30T06:10:06.766-03:00global warming, has been happening, since the end ...global warming, has been happening, since the end of the ice age,don't need a scientist to figure this outAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6399730406480392183.post-77226827236893619572011-08-30T00:07:16.050-03:002011-08-30T00:07:16.050-03:00IanM,

Animals and plants are migrating. Polar ice caps melting. Crazy weather patterns... I can easily get whatever factual information one might want to make a water-tight case. <br /><br />But regardless of what my mind may say, the gut instinct of working on the land in garden-farming for myself, clients and volunteering has had alarm bells going off like crazy since 2009, becoming more frequent, more intense. <br /><br />I was raised on the land here where I live, as have generations of my family, moving here sometime between the revolutionary and civil wars. I have also lived through a few disasters (earthquakes and fires) and feel as if I am one of those animals that can pick up some strange vibration that leaves me on edge for days. Their are many ways of knowing, science is only one of them. <br /><br />My interest is in food security and preparation... should you lose electricity, water and gas, what then? Will you be able to eat, and for how long? I guarantee should you be in such a situation you will see just how vulnerable you are - how reliant on systems that are taken for granted until they are not there. The cause could be the climate or economic or peak oil. They are all serious and all related. And I guarantee the federal government knows about them all whether or not our elected officials inform us or not. And thus far they will not. Why? They do not want a mass panic. The outcome? A distracted population that is not, and knows not, how to prepare.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6399730406480392183.post-30712715361192280282011-08-28T16:14:11.830-03:002011-08-28T16:14:11.830-03:00It would appear that the military talked only to t...It would appear that the military talked only to those who postulate a <br />coming "climate crisis". Considering how many of them depend for their <br />grants, salaries, pensions, etc., on perpetuating the belief in a <br />man-created "climate change", it is not surprising that this report repeats <br />all the familiar half-truths (and worse) of rising sea levels, infectious <br />diseases, etc. The MSM are of no help here, concentrating as they do on <br />perpetuating the scare so they can generate scarier headlines and (they <br />hope) sales.<br />The fact remains that there is no scientific proof that increasing CO2 <br />levels in the air will have any but a minuscule effect on <br />temperature/weather/climate. What we are continually presented with is only <br />the result of very questionable temperature data fed into computers using <br />equally questionable curve-fitting programs. If one does not bother to check <br />the bona fides of the basis for the scare story then one can easily be <br />persuaded that we face a tremendous danger. However, reading the "behind" <br />story reveals the many exaggerations and deceptions engaged in by the IPCC <br />and the warmist alarmists whose voices are reported religiously while those <br />who are equally knowledgeable (or better) but who do not go along with the <br />"man-created disaster" story are blocked from the daily press and many <br />scientific publications.<br />These are facts that can be verified by anyone who cares to take the time to <br />read Watts Up With That, Climate Audit, and the many information sources <br />listed by them (objectively, they list a spectrum of belief).<br />And "belief" is the operative word, for the alarmists are presenting their <br />belief as fact, and that is not the way that science is supposed to operate.<br />There is obviously much more that can be written on this subject, but time <br />and space here do not allow it.<br /><br />IanMIan L.

Dahh.....<br />if the climate stayed constant life on earth wouldnt evolve. <br /><br />If you look at the history of isolated settlements who are deeply dependant on the weather you can see how there are hot or cold periods of time.......<br />I love nature but I wish that instead of talking about the obvious which you cant change people will start talking about the immidiate dangers of pollution and the mass extinction which is in the works. The fact that these important people talk about a problem in 50 years but most of them ignore the ecological damage happening today and danger us as a whole more than any 2 degrees change is very worrying.<br />A bit similar like talking about the rising of china when the core problem is crazy deficit.....Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
