In 2005 we saw gigantic ice shelves collapse and break apart and huge icebergs set adrift. We witnessed Bangladesh further submerge and low level areas in the Southern Hemisphere flood as they were already only a few feet above sea level. Coral Reef Bleaching and a Horrific 2005 Hurricane Season, which followed a catastrophic Typhoon Season on the Asian Pacific Coastlines, frightened us. We witnessed the last remains of the glaciers on the African Continent disappear and polar bears who had to swim for 60 miles often drowning to get to food supply as the ice broke free. We watched penguins get trapped as the ice collided.
There were many indications in 2005 of Climate Change; some were further exacerbated by volcanic eruptions spewing ash, sulfuric gas and steam into the air. Currently in China we see the Gobi Desert reclaiming land and the rain forest losing an acre per hour. We have seen Scientists blame these Climate Changes on mankind’s endeavors, although at this point it is hardly relevant. In some areas we have ice build up and in other areas we have ice melting at alarming rates. What does this all mean? It means things are changing and that we can expect this trend to continue through 2006 and beyond, with little if anything mankind can do to stop it or change its path. Think on this.
