Hello zhenghong. Right now it is fine in my part as the rainy days are gone after so many days of rain. I am glad that I can finally enjoy fine days with sunshine these days. I hope that the good weather will stay for some time before rain visits us again when it is needed.
Well, let's come to another point of view you have mentioned about in this discussion. It is true that the greenhouse effect caused by pollution of different kinds is affecting us a lot in our everyday life. I think that a better way for us humans is to use fewer of the cars, but buses instead as a way of transportation to avoid the emission of greenhouse gas. Of course, there are many other ways of helping save the earth from being polluted, which definitely affects our climate a great deal.
Thank you so much for your discussion.

clearly, many different forces are now shaping and bending the earth's climate.the past decade has wild weather, and the 1990s may well bring extremes unknown in living memory.we can slow down the buildup of co2 in our atmosphere by increasing energy conservation and efficiency; by protecting tropical forests; by designing automobiles that burn less gas per mile; by turning to renewable energy sources such as solar, hydro, wind, and possibly nuclear power. we can speed the the phaseout of chlorofluorcarbons, which pose a risk both to the earth's ozone layer and climate. fortunately,we have the tools for heading off disaster. it only remains for us to use them.

Well it was raining for the past four days here where we are at. It has stopped raining. So, I know that many people have gotten sick because of the weather. I am one of these people out of many others. Plus my hubbie is very ill at this time. It is cold and mixed up weather. I know this is called sick weather.

Clearly, many different forces are now shaping and bending the earth's climate. The past decade has seen wild weather, and the 1990s may well bring extremes unknown in living memory. BUT THIS NEED NOT BRING DISASTER.AND AOTHER:WHEN sunspot numbers return to normal, however, the earth's climate could cool quickly, says Eddy, by an amount counterbalancing the rise predicted for the greenhouse effect.

thank for my friend hope jordan. yes .something strange is happening to our weather. and it didn't just begin summer. why is our weather going wild? Hothouse Gas. when we burn fossil fuels (principally coal and oil) we send extra quantities of carbon dioxide into our atmosphere. Since 1958, the prportion of CO2 in our air has risen 25 percent. MANY SCIENTISTS THINK THAT WITHIN A CENTURY THIS simple gas could devastate our world.

We have to make awareness to our people not to cut the trees.Trees are the reliable sources for controlling the world climate.And more over we should use gas fuels rather than petrol or diesel.Gas emits less co2 so that the environment does not affect much.Create awareness in your area for your/our goodnass.Happy Mylotting...

THANK MY FRIEND. YES: Science and common sense offer ways to minimize the risk of devasting climate change. we can slown down the building of CO2 in our atmosphere by increasing energy conservation and effciency;by protecting tropical forests; by designing automobiles that burn less gas per mile ;by turning to renewable energy sources such as solar, hydro,wind, and possibly nuclear power. WE can speed the phaseout of chlorofluorocarbons, which pose a risk both to the earth's ozone layer and climate. For tunately, we have the the tools for heading off disaster. it only remains for us to use them.
