The number of hurricanes increases and after 2004 meteorologists had to modify the textbooks , which asserted that “in the South Atlantic hurricanes it does not occur”. In this year for the first time in the history hurricane storm has hit Brazil. By the tradition of the World meteorological organization to hurricanes and to storms are given the names which begun with the letters of the Latin alphabet. For example, in 2005 the first was “Arlene” then “Brent”, etc. But in the same year, for the first time, the letters of Latin alphabet have not sufficient! Last six hurricanes they named simply by letters of the Greek alphabet - alpha, beta, gamma… In the version, that warming considerably increases the number, duration and force of hurricanes, appears more and more supporters.
In 1957 young physicist David Killing equipped the meteorological station on the Hawaiian islands , where the scientific already 50 years daily take the samples of air for determining the concentration of carbon dioxide. Hawaii has been chosen because here there are no industrial enterprises polluting the atmosphere, and it is impossible to consider results preconceived. It seemed that a quantity of this gas steadily grows by year.
Then scientists found the method to find out, how much carbon dioxide was in the atmosphere in the past. For this purpose it was necessary to bore holes in Antarctica and to investigate the ancient ice. It has appeared that never for all of 650 thousand years of preindustrial epoch, carbon-dioxide maintenance rose to the present level. And its concentration continues grow.
Albert Gore is assured, that the USA became the country of “consumer culture “. The ordinary American does not understand what price the nature pays for surplus and a variety of the goods and services which it can use. And by these approaches an ecological apocalypse. Gore gives advice how to try to reduce pollution of an atmosphere:
Buy more economical automobiles.
Do not spend a superfluous paper, for example, instead of the paper shawls and the napkins use textile
Achieve, that not bring the unnecessary advertising correspondence to you.
Carry things in textile bags, instead of in paper or polyethylene packages.
Do not buy constantly water in the small bottles - get home water or juice in the large bottles , whence it will be possible to pour a liquid in the small amount of capacitance and bear it with itself. Also use of a thermos with a mug will assist to destroy “the culture” of plastic cups.
Less often fly by planes - if there is no special urgency, travel by train, by bus or by river transport.
As far as possible buy the products of local producers - this reduces the emissions of greenhouse gases by its transportation.
