“Temperatures in parts of India and Pakistan have reached record levels, putting the lives of millions at risk as the effects of the climate crisis are felt across the subcontinent.

“We entered Agra on the 7th of April ; rejoiced at having hitherto escaped the noxious effects of the hot season in this climate, and not less so to find a shelter from its intensity in the ingenious construction of the dwellings herc, lt is difficult in the temperate climate of our German home to form any conception of the burning heat of a Tropical sun. When in Agra, tempted by the artificial lowering of the temperature in the interior of our residence, wo ventured after midday to take a short walk along thu street, the sensation caused by first meeting a rushing stream of air heated up to 31? or 35? (100- or 111? Fahrenheit) was most startling,

Whereas the biggest oil and gas companies have indicated that much of their record profits will be diverted to executives and shareholders;

Whereas the Department of Defense has found that increasing temperatures, changing precipitation patterns, and more frequent, intense, and unpredictable extreme weather conditions caused by climate change are exacerbating existing risks and creating new security challenges for United States’ interests;”

Most forecasts of worldwide food production have been based on the assumption that global weather will stay “Many climatologists have associated this drought and other recent weather anomalies with a global cooling trend and changes in atmospheric circulation which, if prolonged, pose serious threats to major food-producing regions of the world”

“In India, for example, before the global warming trend of 1890-1940. severe drought struck about once every four years. With the warming, however, and more abundant monsoon rains, drought came only once every 18 years or so, greatly increasing India’s grain production.””Annual average temperatures over the Northern Hemisphere increased rather dramatically from about 1890 through 1940, but have been falling ever since. The total change has averaged about one-half degree Centigrade”

“a study of the past reveals that the Earth’s climate is highly variable—indeed, that variability is one of its fundamental characteristics”

The devastating food shortage that has millions of the world’s poor people in its grip is directly related to what climatologists increasingly suspect is a gradual global cooling process that is causing erratic weather changes from one year to the next.

Early frosts from Texas to the Dakotas. typhoons in India. drought in Siberia, expansion of the desert south of the African Sahara are evidence of unfavorable shifts in the earth’s climate that have been occurring since 1945. U.S. weather experts say.

Weather records show that the annual average temperatures over the Northern Hemisphere rose dramatically from about 1890 through 1945. but have been falling ever since. The total change has averaged about one-half degree centigrade, with the greatest cooling in the all-important wheat – growing regions of North America and Europe. The drop has already shortened the growing season in England by two weeks and caused a dangerous southward shift of monsoon winds in rice – growing regions of Southeast Asia.
