The Katrina template

Is is both ironic and interesting that the US is making such a big thing about the 5 year anniversary of hurricane Katrina. For now at this point in US history it is a significant event that overwhelmed the resources of the US.

Global warming the believe it or not mind game

It has been an interesting watch from the sidelines as some try to make people believe that global warming is a hoax. This and the emails saying data is wrong or distorted, is just part of the mind game. The question is who is behind this quasi conspiracy if anyone at all. [Read more →]

Sudden global climate change expected Part 2

With a sudden change in climate, we simply will not have time to compensate for food production. Crops will suddenly fail and near global famine will set in quickly perhaps in months. [Read more →]

Off target sea level rise predictions

water depth gage

Being wrong about how fast global warming will change our planet seems to be the norm. As we have no models to use as templates, our best scientists best guesses are off actual times by several decades. The bad part is the actual times are much sooner than what was predicted. [Read more →]
