    I read about every bit of news on climate change. I follow IPCC...even though I know they are more political and scientific. I feel an overwhelming need to talk to anyone about all this. 3.5c increase by 2035? That's just 18 years!

    I have known in my gut that we passed the tipping point in 2000. When I first read that famous work from the Club of Rome back in the early 70s, I knew enough computer science to know their methodology was dead on. I believed what their models predicted. Yet, even as 2000 came and went...I kept my head in the sand.

    Now, there is no one who will listen. My Kids get mad because I am telling them they won't grow old. Friends just cannot understand what exponential numbers do....how fast exponential rates make everything change. Fine. one year, dead the next.

    It was obvious from the beginning what those Dragon Burps were....now we see spikes of methane that are astronomical.

    I am here on this forum because I need to know that there are others who also know. Will everyone play the fiddle while the world burns?

    How are you folks living with this knowledge?

    Good day Katiekate, you are not alone! Governments have been aware of this climate problem for at least the past 40 years & done nothing. Greed & money being the problem!
    Living with this knowledge? What can we do? I sign petitions, but they are a waste of time. Our government needs sacking & a completely new system put in place where there is less likelihood of corruption, & the people have a voice.
    Meanwhile our garden is cooking in the sun! We have to use shade cloth to protect brasicas. The need to grow our own food means that we are trying new methods to cope with the loss of moisture from the earth. I have been saying for ages, climate change/global warming is a survival threat right now!
    Regards, Keith.

    Many scientists (who get flak for saying it) calculate more like a 1.0 C change. What many find scary and what is melting glaciers is that our planet is getting hit with more solar & cosmic radiation. Why? Seems the magnetic fields that surround our planet are weakening. These fields cause radiation to migrate to the poles as opposed to hitting our planet straight-on. As to glaciers, what happens to an ice cube if you put it into a microwave oven?! Bad. The extra carbon dioxide in our atmosphere is being absorbed by Earth's forests and all chlorophyll-dependent plant life. Measurable increases in Earth's plant biomass have been recorded. The plants are going to be happy and will be mutating/evolving more quickly (due to increased radiation).

    Meanwhile we humans will really have to watch out for skin cancers (dermatologists are very busy of late), bad storms (think about the microwave oven again), massive disruptions of all communications using radio waves, and massive disruptions of electrical power grids -- in the latter, we are talking about multi-province, multi-state, multi-nation shutdowns of electrical feed. The Earth's ozone layers are slowly healing, however we super-depend on the Earth's magnetic flux lines to keep us from getting baked. Underground homes and sunscreen may work for individual humans, but what about our planet itself!
