With awful flooding in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia, now there are 350 dead in Brazil, with more floods causing mudslides. Extreme weather appears to be attacking the world. Some people say that it was always thus and the fact that we have greater and faster communications now means that we all know about it as soon as it happens. Possibly. But some say that it is a sign of the more imminent threat caused by global warming.
The prolonged period of very cold weather and snow that Europe & the UK experienced since before Christmas is also attributed to a warming planet. I am inclined to agree with that and I think that it should be being taken more seriously than it is.
