 |
|
Great Britain has gone through another wet summer that several weather
forecasters attribute to the implosion of climate change.
The heavy rains in Britain over the past two summers were predicted by
computer models that analyzed the effect of global warming where a
warming atmosphere contains more moisture.
For the second successive summer Britain>s homes have been flooded in
what would normally be once in one hundred year events.
Climate scientists claim that the specific cause of the recurring
summer downpours was the shifting southwards of the jetstream - the
rapidly moving band of air between the polar and the tropical zones
that directs the course of low-pressure systems across the Atlantic.
Meteorologists also assert to the influence of La Nina that results in
the cooling of the central and eastern parts of the Pacific Ocean.
Former chief of the country>s environment bureau John Prescott said
the arrival of seasonal summer floods, which began in 2001, was "a
wake-up call" that climate change had arrived.
Sir Michael Pitt reported to the Government that flood risks were as
high as the "risk of terrorism or a major flu pandemic" and suggested
that a cabinet committee be established solely for issues related to
flooding.

They are as real as winters in Florida or most Southern States. |
