Christopher Booker - The dangers of breathing - Telegraph

There’s been so much global warming lately in Oslo that the city has had to dump vast loads of snow into the sea, to the rage of environmentalists who protest that this is “pollution”. Back in the 1990s, when Boston similarly dumped the snow cleared from gritted streets into its harbour, the US Environmental Protection Agency filed a multi-million dollar suit against Massachusetts for “polluting” the sea with salt. Last week President Obama upheld a Supreme Court ruling empowering the same agency to regulate all emissions of CO2 as a “pollutant”. We must hope that Obarmy wasn’t breathing out as he did so.

Global warming to weaken monsoons

CHICAGO (AFP) – Global warming could delay the start of the summer monsoon by five to 15 days within the next century and significantly reduce rainfall in much of South Asia, a recent study has found.

1997: Global warming to strengthen monsoons

This historical evidence is consistent with only some of the forecasts of the computer-
generated climate models. Most climate estimates indicate that a doubling of CO2 would
generate greater rainfall in middle latitudes, and history shows that warm climates do produce
more wet weather (Crowley 1993: 21). As has been found in the historical record, land
temperatures should increase more than water and, thus, strengthen monsoons.
