January 13, 2011 - 2010 Ties 2005 as Hottest Year on Record

The NOAA (National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration) just released their report on global warming which confirmed the same information released earlier by NASA that 2010 tied the year 2005 as the hottest year recorded since keeping such statistics. See http://voices.washingtonpost.com/post-carbon/2011/01/2010_ties_for_warmest_year_on.html

Now I know that this info may seem strange, especially to those in Europe, who have seen incredibly cold temps this winter, and to those in the U.S., where just the other day it was reported that fresh snowfall had occurred in 49 of its 50 states. However, the real focus should be turned to Climate Change rather than the customary catch phrase of Global Warming.

Yes, the planet is warming up, but what that does is affect weather patterns. Therefore, some parts of the globe will see bitterly cold temps while other parts will see unusually warm temps. Or, some parts will be inundated with rainfall while others experience relentless drought, etc. The focus shouldn't be on the whole planet warming up, but on insanely crazy weather patterns occurring in unusual places.

Another red flag comment which this report mentions is that the 2010 statistic marks the 34th year in which global temperatures have been above the 20th century average. Again, this shows irrevicably that the Earth's temperatures are steadily rising.

Australia's dilemma continues to remain in the headlines. Waters are beginning to drop a bit. However, more rain, and even the possibility of a typhoon are in the upcoming forecast. The red flag comment which I want to focus on in this report is: '"Queensland is reeling this morning from the worst natural disaster in our history and possibly in the history of our nation," a visibly emotional Bligh told reporters.' Officials also declare that Queensland residents "now face a reconstruction task of postwar proportions." See http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/41053471/ns/world_news-asia-pacific/

I reiterate, natural disasters and extreme weather events are not alarming when they occur in natural cycles. However, what we should look for are these comments and facts which show 1. that things are happening in more rapid succession, and 2. that these events are becoming increasingly more violent. These combined points are the tell-tale signs of global climate change.

The third report for the day keeps Brazil in the spotlight, with heavy rains there causing massive flooding and huge landslides that have killed well over 300 people in the past couple of days (and the count is rising).

Now, again, heavy rains are not unusual in South America during their summer months, and population explosions and deforestation begs to create disaster and death. However, what we need to look at is the extremity of the situation. The report states, "Hillsides and river banks in the picturesque Serrana region north of Rio buckled under the equivalent of a month's rainfall in 24 hours." So, it isn't unusual for Brazil to get rain, but it IS unusual for the country to get a month's worth of rainfall in a one day period. See http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/41042622/ns/weather/?GT1=43001

Again, my purpose for the change in direction of this blog is to document in one place as many newsworthy climate change events as possible. Many people refuse to believe (and even refute) that climate change is occurring. I want to show infutable evidence with almost daily reports, such as I am posting, that climate change is occurring and occurring rapidly.

My intention is not to promote fear, but, on the contrary, to demonstrate that this is a universal, cosmic cycle with the purpose of propelling existence as we know it into a higher plane of evolutional being.. i.e. spiritual and energetic ascension.

These reports and evidence of rapid global climate change should prompt sleeping and lathargic people into a state of preparation. Now is the time to raise your spiritual energy levels and subsequent cosmic consciousness. Remember the story of Noah, at a particular point in time, the doors were closed and sealed and noone else was permitted to enter. Build your ark of energy around you and your loved ones today before it's too late. The clock is ticking!
