Global Precipitation Changes

One of the key indicators on environmental change and civilisation is the water cycle so changes in precipitation with global warming will be critical.

Looking at current projections, it looks like there will be big changes in global power. Europe and the USA are going to be hit hard.

The south will be devastated, notably equatorial Africa, Brasil, S. Africa and Australia.

Unless there is some sort of game changer in the next couple of decades we are going to see the biggest political upset since the Fall of Rome and Persia.

      Not if you read the science. Not in any way. Unfortunately.

      What do scientists know about science compared to oil oligarchs and sleazy politicians.

      I recommend the book 'Merchants of doubt' by Naomi Oreskes and Erik Conway.
      Really recommended if you believe said oil oligarchs, -companies and paid politicians.

    Retiring to Scotland is starting to look like a good idea.

      I think Iceland is touted as the place to go. Geothermic energy has its attractions the way things are going...
