In Myitkyina in Kachin State, the northern tip of Burma, Loi Lem in Shan State, eastern Burma, some cities in southeastern parts, Mogoke and Pyinmana in central Burma are significantly colder, it is learnt.
"It is extremely cold this year. Even those who like cold weather cannot bear it," a resident from Myitkyina said.
"It's much colder than previous years, especially these days. The more the sunrises the colder it gets. We cannot take off the warm clothes all day. But so far, we do not yet heard of any deaths related to the cold wave," he added.
SANTA MARIA DE LAMAS, Portugal - (Business Wire) Corticeira Amorim, the world’s leading producer of natural cork wine stoppers, recently issued the results of an independent study by PricewaterhouseCoopers. The study clearly shows the environmental superiority of natural cork stoppers over alternative wine closures.Climate researchers take advantage of fossil-fueled Antarctic hot tub
The year-long study found that CO2 emissions — a key factor in global warming — resulting from the life cycle of a screwcap are 24 times higher than those from a natural cork stopper, while a plastic stopper is responsible for 10 times more CO2 than a natural cork.
“One of the traditions here at Palmer Station is to do the ‘polar plunge.’ This means some of us that are crazy enough, jump into the freezing water,” she wrote in one post. “Alex and I both jumped and quickly got ourselves out of the water and into the hot tub. There is no way I would have jumped without the hot tub.”Al Fin: A Freezing Earth Eyes Nuclear Energy
Palmer Station is located on Anvers Island, next to the Antarctic Peninsula. The facility includes sleeping and living quarters, a gym, lounge, as well as scientific laboratories and monitoring equipment. Up to 46 people can stay there at one time.
The station is serviced by the Antarctic Research and Supply Vessel L.M. Gould. The ship shuttles personnel, equipment and supplies back and forth between the station and Punta Arenas, Chile.
It will also be the team’s “home away from home” for a month-long research cruise, scheduled for January.
Under the new energy starvation reich of Obama / Pelosi, there will be precious little new energy development, with the threat of much old energy being shut down out of faux-environmental concerns -- carbon hysteria. A surfeit of governmental and non-governmental "environmental" lawyers will be in full control, and they intend to create a type of havoc for ordinary persons previously unknown.Big Stone approval has strings attached
How do you plan to stay warm as the planet cools?
Goodpaster, the attorney opposed to the project, said Minnesota faces an additional 4 million tons of carbon dioxide annually even as scientists advocate reducing carbon dioxide emissions.
“That means more global warming, which will further alter Minnesota’s climate, pushing the state further toward the demise of its moose population, more drought and the movement of the pine forests farther north.”
