Opis

Tipping Point the Coming Weather Crisis is a forecast of a coming climate change that puts us in the beginning of a new ice age in just a few years. A change that affects millions. I go on to discuss how changes in climate have affected man in the past such as: glaciers, ice ages, floods, and volcanic eruptions. I describe why these things happened and the mechanics behind them in words and graphics that are easy to understand. Further discuss how man has been modifying the climate of the world for 10,000 years, since we started using fire. I talk of global warming and blame clean burning fuels and environmentalists for the current rise in temperature. I cover how sea level changes created the Garden of Eden, how this would of flooded and affected Noah, and how volcanic eruptions are really the source of legends about fire breathing dragons. I go on to discuss how climate change gave us the Garden of Eden and in the end took it away. It was indeed a safe and bountiful land that was a paradise and cradle for a fledgling mankind for more than 70,000 years. But in the end it was a deathtrap. In the past abrupt weather changes have occurred when conditions existed almost exactly like they are today. Data glaciers in Greenland and Antarctica show us the transition into an Ice Age come at the end of warm periods. I do hope that I am wrong, but don't think so.
