Jennifer Marohasy » Global Warming is Over: Don Easterbrook

The good news is that global warming (i.e., the 1977-1998 warming) is over and atmospheric CO2 is not a vital issue. The bad news is that cold conditions kill more people than warm conditions, so we are in for bigger problems than we might have experienced if global warming had continued. Mortality data from 1979-2002 death certificate records show twice as many deaths directly from extreme cold than for deaths from extreme heat, 8 times as many deaths as those from floods, and 30 times as many as from hurricanes. The number of deaths indirectly related to cold is many times worse.

Night sky lost to turbines? - The Kincardine News - Ontario, CA

We have lost our night sky!

Living in the country, residents could go out at night and sit on our decks, or walk and watch the stars or listen to the different sounds of the night.

Very peaceful, now the skies are filled with flashing red lights and the swish of windmill blades. Gone is the country life everyone enjoyed, no more sounds of the whippoorwill or frogs singing or the horned owl communicating with its mate.

I hope the ones who wanted this are happy, for we have lost something forever.

The Kyotoplus Campaign

Global warming is an unparalleled and “unequivocal” human-made environmental crisis. In Canada, we have seen the melting of glaciers, the dramatic loss of sea-ice in the Arctic, loss of perma-frost, and the destruction of forests by the pine beetle. Without immediate action, long-term impacts such as rising sea levels will result in millions of environmental refugees and destruction of crops will lead to worldwide famine.
