    At new study by the World Meteorology Organization shows the alarming rate the state of the climate is changing as world leaders gather for a UN climate summit. More and more the effects and evidence of climate change are moving from the realm future catastrophe to measurable and observable effects of a crisis that is accelerating in pace and becoming a current event today.

    Highlights of the report:

    The latest 5 year period have been the hottest on record:

    Sea level rise is accelerating faster than computer models had predicted:

    Glaciers are melting faster than predicted worldwide:

    Heatwaves are becoming more common and more intense:

    And CO2 levels continue to rise world wide.

    This is no longer something that might happen in the future that can be ignored as we sit in our air-conditioned apartments and houses in cities that seem far removed from crisis. This is happening now and it is going to be bad as the changes continue to accelerate.

    Greta blasts world leaders at Un: "how dare you."

    Todays children are going to bear the brunt of our inability to take action and judge us accordingly for the world we are leaving them:

    Doom and Gloom fire and brimstone. Ramp up the scare tactics. runforhills.gif

    College students think world will end in 12 years.
    Many of these students said they believe humanity is on a collision course with climate catastrophe and agree with Democratic Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez that there’s only 12 years left before the planet becomes uninhabitable.

    If these snowflakes actually believe that the world will end in 12 years, why are they bothering to stay in school? Must be the parental teat.

    We must implement a nuclear grid and household solar urgently. Electric cars will take care of themselves but there is no point if we don't have nuclear, preferably LFTR reactors.

    LOL, it appears they don't believe the NOAA or IPCC then. Funny how the temperature has not changed in North America for the last two decades if it is changing so fast.

    I must live in Paradise up here in the Beautiful Pacific Northwest, it's 61 degrees Fahrenheit, cloudy and raining. not a hint of GLOBAL WARMING. I think I'm going to go out and pour some oil in my Lawnmowers Gas tank and get it nice and Smokey and let it run for about 24 hours to pollute the atmosphere, because I'm jealous of how nice and warm it is down in Southern California and all those Hot Babes running around in Bikini's, while up here they dress like Eskimos. The United States isn't gonna make a dent in Global Warming if China, India, Russia, Indonesia and the rest of all these awful Polluters don't get on board. I recycle and do my part to not allow any of my plastic bottles or straws to end up in the Ocean, but when you see stuff like this, you realize the rest of the World doesn't give a F%*&%*
