Hot, Dry Conditions Fuel Florida Fires

!VistaDude:iconVistaDude: reports, May 14
As I live in Brevard County in which the fires are burning this is touching really close to home for me. If there are other members here at DA that are close to the fires, my prayers and thoughts go out to each of you.

In closing:

Authorities said the fire at Malabar may have been caused by arson. A witness saw someone in a car drop something into a open field shortly before the blaze began, an arson investigator said.
Further south around the large and shallow Lake Okeechobee, a several hundred-hectare fire continued to blaze along the lakeshore. Local officials said a drought that caused a drop in lake levels had left piles of dead vegetation that was a perfect fuel for wildfires.

For two days, thick smoke from the Okeechobee fire has wafted west over the cities of Fort Myers and Naples, officials said, prompting fears of respiratory problems.

The governor's declaration of a state of emergency frees up extra funding to fight the fires, as well as allowing Florida to call on other states for help.

Several firefighters have been injured so far, officials said.

Make an Informed Decision about Global Warming

=nmmi-nut:iconnmmi-nut: reports, Oct 11, 2007
Making an informed opinion which satisfies you and those who you come across these days is harsh when dealing with Global Warming (a misnomer, it is more correctly referred to as climate destabilization).

The reason this is harsh is because when using "science" as your backup, if you cannot explain why you believe what you believe, people tend to discredit you.

Four months ago you may have encountered a video on youtube, break.com, digg.com, myspace, or even here, which sought to give the Joe Schmoe in everyone a short and clear decision making grid.

Turns out there were some big assumptions within the argument the video maker presented.

Now the maker, wonderingmind42 by screen name, has released a better version. With expansions. You could even go so far as to say it has been improved from the first one by skeptics, conspiracy theorists, zealots, believers, and the lot.

What the new videos seek to do is to provide the viewer with the tools with which to make an informed decision.

So do you want to stop citing "because I think so," or "because the government is funding a conspiracy," as your reasons why or why not you believe climate change to be happening?

I do. Go watch the video, maybe check out some of the numerous follow-up videos if you have other questions. Or need more ammunition.

Or decide between which verb you like better, guess if our science is correct about climate destabilization, or choose what way you want to react to what the science is telling us.

Fact: global warming is happening
Fact: The world naturally goes through climate changes (600 yrs ago, we had a mini ice age)
Fact: 1 horse gave out more methane in one day than the average driver.

Global warming is real. Do we have to worry about it? not for a few hundred years or so.

Oh dear... I don't like flame wars...
But the horse's carbon (methane oxidizes to produce carbon dioxide) came out of the atmosphere three weeks ago.
The driver's carbon came out of the atmosphere tens of millions of years ago.
sorry for a really late post, I can't sleep at my end.
