Despite what the government and car manufacturers would like you to believe, the fact is that global warming is really here. One thing that will slow down the Gulf Stream, the powerful ocean current that brings warm water (and weather) to the UK and the rest of Europe, is dilution of the ocean?s salt level, due to an influx of freshwater from melting glaciers and ice sheets. The Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution in Massachusetts,which is keeping an eye on this phenomenon, says that large regions of the North Atlantic Ocean have been growing fresher since the late 1960s, due to melting glaciers and increased precipitation, both associated with greenhouse warming. Salinity records show that large pulses of extra sea ice and fresh water from the Arctic have flowed into the North Atlantic.read more

Now that he so rarely appears in public, these marvelously articulate and fascinating documents have become precious. This first one was delivered on April 15, 1988 at the World Affairs Conference at the University of Colorado in Boulder, before an audience that included many members of the Condon Committee that created Project Blue Book. Whitley gave them something to think about and, perhaps, to be ashamed of.
