Climate Change
As the argument about climate change is never going to end and has its many sceptics, I wonder at times that too much emphasis is placed on the visual facts only. I agree with the atmosphere requiring cleaning up and most countries had various local laws to achieve this aim. Another most probable cause of this is the massive rise in world population and long gone are the days of Adam and Eve. The world as we know it has been through many phases of differing temperatures through the milleniums and will always do so as long as it remains in the solar system. So we use green house gases as the cause of such, it may and does give us a dirty atmosphere, but has any of these scientists in different aspects of could be causes tested the massive doses of radiation emitted by the sun, and all the man made radio waves and other types of waves introduced into the atmosphere by mobile phones and computers, the whole atmosphere must be full of such alien signals. Or is the path of testing for such and any possible disadvantages out of their jurisdiction. As cant be seen is out of sight and out of mind. I think the climate change causes if such exist are probably not corrective in any way by man cutting back on carbon emissions apart from a cleaner atmosphere, is hopefully carrying on other tests apart from the chosen one which may in the end prove a false premise. The natural bush fires in Australia alone in a year must exceed some countries emissions of 10 years, and as for volcanic eruptions and the man made explosions in areas of conflicts will well exceed any man can do at the moment as regards his emissions due to industry.

Remember when the Twin Towers were destroyed and all planes were grounded the quality of the air around New York improved somewhat.

Re: Climate Change
Everyone is I think aware of air pollution which has always been with us in our lifetime. However on taken the earth as one big magnet which it is, and putting out all sorts of electro emissions must have some effect on the earths lines of force. We have all heard of electric storms, caused we are told by molecules and atoms colliding etc etc. We literally are changing the composition by emitting magnetic waves into our own atmosphere, I go along with air pollution, but think to blame this all on wood and coal fuels burning and causing climate change, think I am one of the sceptics when blaming so called climate change totally on such. Also as previous posts as some suggest that the tilt of the earth has changed. I would also think that the stupid ones who still insist on nucleur testing into the core of the earth should also have some fingers pointed at them. Cheers JS

Re: Climate Change
Climate Change ?? it was hotter here 104 years ago, (I've put this on before)
Wednesday. 9th August. 1911.
London. Hottest day in the capital for 70 years--97 degrees Fahrenheit.
Saturday. 26th August. 1911.
London. Reported that 2500 children have died in the recent heatwave.
Monday. 28th August. 1911.
London. The recent record-breaking heat wave with temperatures of up to 97 degrees has sent Britain's death rate soaring.
With a mortality rate for all ages of 19 per 1000, London is now the second most unhealthy city in the world.
It is children who are most at risk. During the last week of July, 382 children up to the age of two died in the city.
In the week just ended, the figure rocked to 855. Questions are being asked as to whether the authorities have done
all they could to counter the distressing loss of life.

Eh Jim Lad, you could never be accused of being thick by any stretch of the imagination, but if the way to getting cleaner air is by crashing planes into buildings I'd rather pay the alternative green taxes, just my observation, nothing meant by it. We've got clean air here at the moment, then perhaps no, but the 60/70mph winds are certainly sweeping everything off the streets
