Food for thought: Global Warming:The Sun

I’ve noticed the temperature & climatic changes & how it’s affecting the people in the state of Hawaii. Has it affected you or your state/country? Each year the temperature has risen. Hotter with no tropical breeze. Sounds inviting & perhaps great beach whether, but in time the temp. will continue to rise here & the ocean levels will continue decreasing.

Never studying meteorology but have noticed the sun’s rays dramatically changing as well as it’s daily color. The sun…….. The clouds are not as billowy ~ but much thinner, yet the moon remains the same. Fearing only that the generations to come will be raised in I would consider to be a hostile environment or worst…. In a bubble of a city either above or below the earths surface. Our contributions (pictures, videos etc…) maybe viewed as the past’s plush & lush amenities. Ocean, grass, sand, rocks… Imagine never being able to have had the opportunity to feel, smell, taste or dive into nature’s natural body?

Climate change odds much worse than thought: New analysis shows warming could be double previous estimates. David Chandler, MIT News Office:
“The new projections, published this month in the American Meteorological Society's Journal of Climate, indicate a median probability of surface warming of 5.2 degrees Celsius by 2100, with a 90% probability range of 3.5 to 7.4 degrees. This can be compared to a median projected increase in the 2003 study of just 2.4 degrees. The difference is caused by several factors rather than any single big change.”

Hawai'i science and environment:
A massive pulse of carbon dioxide entered the world's atmosphere 55 million years ago, in association with a significant rise in global temperature. But it seems to have gotten a lot hotter than it should have.

I know they like to sprout cliamte change, el nino etc but records are really not kept for that far back in the term of things, and if you do study them you will find these patterns have happened before. Now I'm not saying that humans haven't affected the earth, we dump so much crap in it for starters but I think with technology these days we just get to hear more about things than they would have back in the 1800's etc

Exactly what I was going to say Suzie...yes our weather patterns do repeat and it's over the course of hundreds of years, or somthing like that, that we get the weather changing. But I do also agree with Suzie about what we have done to our planet and it does also concern me greatly about the icebergs melting at such an alarming rate, have you seen that on TV?
A lot of things about our enviroment concern me these days when a few years back I couldn't have cared less...maybe because I was younger then and I didn't take notice of what was actually happening. I really do wish people would take recycling more seriously too. You should see the amount of paper that I throw into a bin for landfill and this is every single day! I don't have the time to go through it all otherwise I would. I would like to suggest to them that they have 3 bins in each Dr room - 1 for medical waste, 2 for paper and card and 3 for other items which cannot be recycled....but every time I say something to them I get treated like crap under their feet so I give up on them. I was thinking about dobbing them in to somewhere to get official people go talk to them about this but I'm not even sure if there is anyone like that. Just one person cannot do it alone.

I agree. The inevitable is expected as our universe, world & earths changes occur. We, as humans, should take full responsibility for what those before us had done. We may not be able to stop the earths ‘natural process’ but we could at the very least make do with what we have to ensure a better future. Going green: http://www.treehugger.com/gogreen.php
