| HappySqurriel said: I don't know enough about Austrailia to comment about it but ... In the world there are so many distinct climate zones that extremely rare weather conditions should be expected in multiple zones every year. The probability of having the warmest or coldest spring, summer, winter or fall in 150 years (assuming a probability of 1/150 for each) is 5.2% for any given weather region; if you have 20 weather regions in a region you have a probability of 65% to see one of these "rare" weather paterns in any given year. When you start adding extreme rain or drought, high and low numbers of storms and forest fires and countless other extreme weather patterns it becomes extremely likely that you will see dozens of these weather paterns in a year.

Well Sweden is having fucked up weather to, year after year is a new record year in warmth. Each year the snow line is further and further up in the north. We are getting more and more floodings. At my home village the river rose 5 meter above normal. The lack was up 5 meter too, and took some of the road with it. I can't prove that this is because of global warming but the truth is that it doesn't matter. Mankind have to change anyway, because honestly we do not own this world we are borrowing it from our children.
I do belive in global warming because of the simple fact that sweden is getting warmer for each year, is it bad for Sweden? Most possible not, is is bad for the majority of the people yes. Is mankind responsible, how should I know? But we should react anyway by the simple fact that if we don't and it ends up even worse we can get some serious war over resources (see Irak).
Now even more important might be that like someone pointed out before one of the most important Green House gases is water. What happens if we increase the overall temperature? More H20 gas. Then we have runaway process and we might end up as Venus number two!
Buy it and pray to the gods of Sigs: Naznatips!
