Climate Scientists And The Permanent El Nino

They warned of permanent El Nino and permanent drought in Australia. Now that we have persistent La Nina, they also blame that on global warming.

 November 7, 1997

Scientists are warning that global warming could make the El Nino a permanent feature of the world’s weather system.

El Nino events normally occur roughly every 5 years, and last for between 12 and 18 months. However unpublished scientific research now suggests that the complex weather systems could occur every 3 years, making them a dominant weather pattern and in effect, almost permanent.

High in the Peruvian Andes, archeologists have discovered the skeletons of what they believe are human sacrifices, linked to El Nino events, at Inca temples of the Sun and the Moon.

Dr Steve Bourget from the University of East Anglia believes the 80 victims were sacrificed to placate the Gods during El Nino rainstorms. “On the north coast of Peru it almost never rains … it rains like this only during the time of Nino’s.”

He continued, “So that’s why, during an El Nino event the temple was itself just melting down and they probably did the sacrifice in order to try and stop the rains.”

Of course, the Inca priest’s ceremonies were in vain, and if the scientists predictions are accurate, so might the best efforts of 21st century technology.

    The Inca’s had climate scientists too……………..

    Well at least the Incans only sacrificed 80. Could the sacrificed have been deniers? ; )

    Funny how history is repeated. The Incas sacraficed a few, today’s “Incan” is sacrificing millions. And you are correct, all in vain.
