There are so many facts in the world that "SCREAM OUT" that climate change (aka Global Warming) is taking place that the WORLD should be taking more serious than they are today. The United Nations is screaming out to anyone that will listen. Global Warming is REAL and I would say that it is the GREATEST THREAT facing the world today. Whole populations of people are moving Northward from the HOT Equatorial areas toward the already teeming-with-people Temperate Zone (like the US of A). This will NOT be a happy welcoming migration.
..........There are SO MANY hints at a BAD future that we are ignoring today. Miami Fl. will be underwater by 2075. ALL the Coral Reefs in the world will probably be dead. By 2075 Florida summers will have many days of 110 actual degrees F. Florida"'s population will ALL be migrating northward by 2075. There will be no one (ZERO) people saying anything but that the world's climate has become the number 1 issue for ALL people and ALL governments to deal with.
..........I am NOT surprised that ONLY the YOUNG people (with futures) in the US are worried about future HEAT. But, I am surprised that so many older, wiser people in The Villages (that are supposed to be intelligent) can NOT see this BAD future coming at them like a freight TRAIN.

IF the above is true, and if it is only short-lived out-of-the-ordinary occurrences (the Tonga volcano, Saharan dust in the atmosphere, etc.) that are limiting the number and power of hurricanes, then it follows that if and when those short-lived occurrences are no longer there, both the number and the destructive power of hurricanes will increase to the point where far more lives are lost and far more property is destroyed, than what we are experiencing currently.
IF it is true that current low hurricane numbers are deceiving many into a sense of complacency regarding hurricanes as well as their causes, then it follows that this complacency is causing such people not to accept the real danger of inevitably more and more powerful hurricanes as well as the continuing damage to the environment that such complacency engenders.
Therefore, given the above, wouldn't an increase of both the power and number of hurricanes be a welcome development, if it serves to get the doubters off the dime and actually engage in actions to protect themselves and the environment against the massive destruction that, once these short-lived out-of-the-ordinary occurrences are no longer present, is sure to follow? |
