Climate change Reviews

I personally think we should not fall for all the scaremongering about 'global-warming' and 'climate chage' without finding out more and having a healthy debate in which everyone's point of view is given a fair hearing; 'global-warming' and 'climate change' (which is just 'the weather') seem to have been turned into a money-making industry by the ...

Is it me or is this summer shaping up like last summer, vast Catherine-wheel low pressures spinning heavy rain right across the breadth of the UK for four of the five days a week. One of those every fortnight and no summer full-stop, as was the case last year. The met office, who seem to have taken sides on man made global warming (in favor of ...

Everyday on TV and in the press we are fed more information on global warming and climate change and the evidence is there for all to see. Floods, drought, rises in sea level, warming of our seas and changes in wind patterns. It is certainly happening at quite a speed. We are all aware of the needs to reduce the use of ...

Climate change or 'global warming' as it is more commonly known is caused by our day to day activities. We are emitting large amounts of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere and this causes our planet to become hotter. The most important greenhouse gas is carbon dioxide (co2) which is produced when we burn coal, oil and natural gas. ...

Let me start of from basics. Climate refers to the temperature over a long period of time, and climate change in general (this topic) refers to changes in the earth's climate - (over decades/millions of years) Climate includes the average temperature, amount of precipitation, days of sunlight, and other variables that might be measured at any ...

Climate change is bad for everyone. Last week was summer. This week it is bloody wet summer. In most of Berkshire and Hampshire people are having problems with getting rid of the water. Roads were blocked, houses flooded. This strange pattern will repeat itself again and again over the course of next decade and it will get worse. Who is ...

there is no scientific proof that the climate change is caused by man the climate has always changed and evolved i dont think there is anything much we can really do to slow down the process we shold alll live for the moment and should not always be told by the government that every thing we do is wrong they see it as a way of making money like ...

Some of the headlines. Flooding in Yorkshire!!!! Lake disappears in two months!!!! Both of these headlines are blamed on climate change. UK has seen wettest June since records began. Global warming is happening, Glaciers are melting, temperatures are slowly increasing. These are all facts that ...

So live earth has arrived and is telling us all to get out of ours cars and take public transport, or, if you can, don't travel at all. Now it is very true that climate change will cause a huge problem for us. Epecially if you live in Holland, as you will eventually end up under several feet of water. However many people still believe that climate ...

As a 50 something I certainly remember the seasons being a wee bit different to today . Now I know some of this is looking back through rose coloured glasses , but it's not just the weather changes , it's the timing that seems to have gone all to cock ( so to speak ) When I was primary school age my Dad worked on building sites , for ...

Global variations in Earth's temperature and weather system is called climate change. In the past Earth has gone through cycles of climate change. Early successful human history is linked to massive lakes which covered much of East Africa (origin of man). Apparently early man flourished around these lakes and as the lakes dried up ...

Being that apparently the trees, birds and other seasonal British wildlife have or are having problems with seasonal adjustment it seems to me that there is obviously something happening with regards to climate change. When I was young we were almost guarenteed a decent summer and the winters were far worse than we have had in recent ...

I think cars are a luxury. Before cars hit the roads people used to take weeks to travel from one end of the country to the other. Obviously everyone wants best in life and for most people cars are the most convenient thing to get from A to B. Raising price of petrol will hurt the poor most as intended. There are more poor ...

As I am prone to writing reviews that are non-confrontational in nature (LOL), I decided to write one that has yet to be addressed in this illustrious forum. After all, why shouldn't climate change be discussed in great detail by the Ciao'ers of the world? To date, unofficial figures show that it has been discussed by a number of groups which ...

I'm not sure if this is the right category for this review, but here goes anyway. We are experiencing a heatwave again - not as bad as in 2003, but pretty severe all the same. And chances are we will experience it again in a few years. We've had lots of reviews about how to prevent climate change, but not much advice on how ...

What has been, what is yet to come, and what remains I know we can dicuss what causes climate change and this may be a link to not just what causes climate change, but why it's got to change and what is to come, we may mess up this wonderfully created planet in search of easy living which then makes breathing difficult as we put on ...

~ ~ This topic has been listed in Speaker's Corner for the last couple of years, but to date I’ve shied away from writing about it for the simple reason that it’s such a complex and complicated subject that it’s very hard to know exactly what the truth about global warming actually is. Also, I’m certainly no expert on matters scientific or on ...

Have you ever posted something and then questioned the timing of the post? When I say “post” I mean posting an opinion on Dooyoo as opposed to Royal Mail post (or lack of depending on service levels). Well, that’s how I felt after posting an opinion about US foreign policy and the ramifications post Afghanistan and, more specifically, post the ...

Well, so much has been said about climate change but with the recent floods in Europe (Aug 02), I wonder if something serious is going to be done. To be honest, it can't get actually more serious. Europe is virtually underwater and countries like Germany have reported damages to be in the billions of pounds. It's the green-house effect ...

We need to encourage homosexuality and the kind of simple rural life beloved of Malaysian Moslems or the American Amish. Or at least we shouldn't discourage rural life or homosexuality. The world's population was 2 billion in 1940 but will be 8 billion by 2050. Soon it will be wall to wall carparks and Walmarts from ...
