Głupotę, przywary współczesnej cywilizacji łącznie z jej wszystkimi
problemami i konfliktami być może w niedługim czasie wyleczy nadchodząca
zmarzlina. A jeśli wierzyć naukowcom z NASA i artykułowi poniżej może stać
się to szybiej niż tego się wszyscy spodziewamy. Jak w tym filmie z Dennisem
Quaid. Luknijcie no kolezanki i koledzy:
"NASA researchers find evidence of global warming in the arctic"
* New research shows that the sea ice in the Arctic has shrunk by 14 per cent
over the last two years.
[...]
> już nie tylko w lecie ale i w zimie:
* It's not unusual for sea ice in the Arctic polar cap to melt in summer, but
now new data from NASA shows the ice is retreating in the winter months as
well.
[...]
> 15 razy szybciej w ciągu ost. 2 lat !!!
* NASA scientists have been using satellites to keep track of the Arctic sea
ice for the past 27 years. They've discovered that for the PAST TWO YEARS,
the ice has been melting in winter ten to 15 TIMES FASTER faster than
previously observed.
[...]
* The one thing I would say that's different is that there are surprises out
there, and in fact this rapid loss of perennial sea ice - 14 per cent between
one year - is something that probably none of the models would have predicted.
[...]
> Skąd ja to znam - przecież to było w tym filmie "Day after Tomorrow"
* So there's still surprises out there, and in general what we're seeing, I
think, is increasing rate of change in the climate system, and that's
obviously a cause for concern.
> To juz naprawde brzmi poważnie.
[...]
* There's a feedback effect there, that as you remove the ice, as the ice
melts, you expose the sunlight to much darker surface water.
Now, the ice actually reflects about 90 per cent of the incoming radiation
back out to space, and in fact that acts to cool that region of the world,
but as it melts you get even more warming - the warming accelerates because
you've got more open ocean which absorbs more of the sunlight. It warms up...
accelerates the loss of sea ice and gives you a reinforcing feedback effect.
> Logiczne i do tego w postępie geometrycznym...
[...]
* The summer of 2005 was a record for the Arctic with ice retreating to its
smallest size in a century. NASA scientists say this current rate of melting
may lead to another record.

Uff, jak dobrze że mieszkam na Florydzie...
Będą ślizgawki na Everglades zimą. Poślizgacie się po łbach aligatorów.
