Seems to be a heck of a lot of evidence that confirms problems, compared to all odd / strange hearsay.
Earth's oceans are speeding up: Global warming over the last 20 years has caused strong winds and 'a really huge increase' in the energy of the currents
Researchers looked at both ocean measurements and five different models
They found that current speeds surged by 5 per cent each decade after 1990
Winds speeds have also increased by 4 per cent since then, churning the ocean
This contradicts previous findings that climate change may weaken circulation

Re: Climate Change -Again.
The 2 words used most by journalists are :- unprecedented and catastrophic. Seems to be a challenge as to who can use the words the most often, whether true or not.

Re: Climate Change -Again.
Colin, you are spot on mate, media the worst source of information any one can gain.
But as Kong said, wait until July down there when it will get way below zero and for many months when more ice will form.
One odd thing according to one source, a recording station for weather is set on the top of a Volcano in Hawaii, odd place one would consider for such.
Happy daze John in Oz.

Re: Climate Change -Again.
If Keith would like to see Global Warming in action I invite him to join me on Kilauea in HAWAII on 26 March,
A most incredible sight, and feel the heat and smell the gas, and see the none stop Lava flows into the Ocean turning it into Boiling water.
Only one of hundreds of volcanoes under the sea and on land.
Now my little car does not do that but I have to pay a green tax of £270 a year
Are you coming Keith ??
