Global Warming
It has been a frigid cold weather a few days ago and they've been calling for snow shower this weekend. I was just thinking how crazy the weather had been.Last year was just a combination of fall, spring and a little bit of cold weather this time. And tomorrow, it is going to be on 50-60 fahrenheit.
Some say it is the Global warming effect . Is it true or just a myth? Let us take a look at National Geographic's definition of this, "it is a set of changes to the earth's climate, or long-term weather patterns, that varies from place to place. As the Earth spins each day, the new heat swirls with it, picking up moisture over the oceans, rising here, settling there. It's changing the rhythms of climate that all living things have come to rely upon."
What are your thoughts about it?
Is it true or just a myth?
So long!
I think it's definitely global warming effect, but not sure if it's 100% our fault., but we are affecting it for sure. The planet has it's own cycles, and could be a coincidence that it's happening no (or we may have accelerated it),
I believe we definitely play a role on making mother Earth less livable. i just hope that the awareness and steps to save it is not too late.
I believe the ramifications of "global warming" on the short term consist of deviation from our percieved historically normal trends, either colder or warmer than the normal seasonal forcast (we have only been taking daily weather readings for a century and a half, or so). Models show that once the main Antarctic ice sheet melts, this will change or even stop the worldwide conveyor system in our oceans, leading to competely different feeding cycles and lack of current food sources for marine animals as well as many more deoxygenated dead zones. I think global warming is a poor term. Climate change seems a more adequate descriptor.
Interestingly, scientist used the term "climate change."
Climatologists use the term "climate change" now instead of "global warming," because the Earth is an incredibly dynamic living planet. The Earth and all that is part of it has an amazing and almost endless ability to equilibrate. Although the overall outcome may be warmer temps across the board in the future, for now and probably the more immediate future, ocean storms and currents will affect our weather more harshly. This will lead to devastation from stronger, less predictable storms and fluctuating temps, aka "climate change." Changing jet streams and ocean currents can lead to this, and has.
