RE: Travel Norway #9 - Austerdalsisen - first view on Svartisen's glacial landscapes
So true - myself, as a kid I remember winters full of snow, actually - few meters of snow, now in Poland, winter time is more like autumn... the same things going on in Norway, every year some new records of hot in the north during summer and cold in winter time - weather is getting more and more extreme which is another evidence that global warming is real process.
Yes very true! We barely get a winter here in Australia now... it cools down but not like it use to. Our bees here last year worked all year round, they usually stop for the winter as it gets too cold for them. That's interesting to hear first hand that it is going on everywhere. Certainly worrying isn't it.
We can be worried or just accept it as a natural state of our planet - cycle of ice ages are working, global warming is the beginning of another one and we cannot help it or stop it. Earth is a living planet and we are just one of the species living on it...
I do suppose... we do our best not to leave a huge footprint behind... if everyone came together and did things right, we could certainly slow it down.
True! We use way too much fossil fuels and cut way to much forests... CO2 accumulated inside the air thousands years ago now is going back to atmosphere, so by minimize usage of them we can definitely slow the process down.
Very true... look at us... we go from your stunning glacial landscapes to our environment. I guess it's good not to stick our head in the sand.
