In their billions, they create giant rivers of water in the air – rivers that form clouds and create rainfall hundreds or even thousands of miles away. ... See MoreSee Less

"Can civilization prolong its life until the end of this century? “It depends on what we are prepared to do.” He fears it will be a long time before we take proportionate action to stop climatic calamity. “Standing in the way is capitalism. Can you imagine the global airline industry being dismantled when hundreds of new runways are being built right now all over the world? It’s almost as if we’re deliberately attempting to defy nature. We’re doing the reverse of what we should be doing, with everybody’s silent acquiescence, and nobody’s batting an eyelid.” -- Read article ... See MoreSee Less

Green Granny --- WOW, if only the world was NOTICING or even informed of all that is happening right now. Read the article. Most of this has not been considered newsworthy in the U.S.

"The unrelenting global heat wave is consistent with predictions for the effects of climate change, experts say. The impacts of climate change are no longer subtle," Director of the Earth System Science Center at Penn State University Michael Mann told CNN. "We are seeing them play out in real time in the form of unprecedented heat waves, floods, droughts, and wildfires. And we've seen them all this summer." ... See MoreSee Less
