The resulting Great Famine caused the deaths of between 19–50 million people, even surpassing some of the deadliest pandemics in history.In the first five rows of the global temperature graph, several economies progressed into the Second Industrial Revolution (~1870–1914), followed by World War...
Examines the science and arguments of global warming skepticism. Common objections like 'global warming is caused by the sun', 'temperature has changed naturally in the past' or 'other planets are warming too' are examined to see what the science really
The temperature of the Earth over geological time follows the succession of icehouse and "greenhouses," i.e. the warmer intermediate periods. The highest temperatures of all were after the end of the Permian icehouse. This produces a cycle of about 135 million years. Veizer, a geologist, ...
P.S. Marianne. My wife died unexpectedly last month while I was stationed in Korea. She and I were anticipating a last tour of her home country for a few years while I worked at the U.S. Army’s hospital in Seoul. Now I am back in the U.S. and am not working anymore. I am ...
500million people depend on coastal resources for food. And 89% of fish are overfished or at maximum capacity due to resource exploitation by humans. There is no healthy planet without healthy oceans. And yet, the global attention to oceans has not been sufficient. Amidst both opportunities ...

由倒数第三段 “Venice Beach stands to be the hardest hit of the five shorelines studied, with a 2-metre rise in sea level over the next 90 years resulting in $96 million in losses, according to the report. A 1-metre increase over the same period would cause $31.6 million in losses ...
Instead, the Earth was generally cold during the Cambrian Period about 500 million years ago. Even if we faced decades more of net warming, we must recognise natural cycles warm and cool the Earth. We should be thankful we are currently in an interglacial period with the Earth enjoying a ...
IF the downward trend in temperature of the past 3,300 years continues, we could be in a heap of trouble.While our leaders keep on wringing their collective hands over global warming,we could be blindsided by an ice age. ALL this talk about human-caused global warming is sheer nonsense, ...
This graph indicates that there has not been much of an increase in global temperature the last ten years although the CO2 level has continued to rise, but ten years is naturally a very short time to draw any conclusions about the global climate. Some people think 50 years is much more ...
