What will come about in the coming times in regards to the climate?

Quetzal:

22. I explained before that the coming time will bring all sorts of disasters in terms of the weather and the climate, i.e. their change.

23. In the next few decades and well into the third millennium, the Earth and its humanity will be afflicted by many natural disasters.

24. Great earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and devastating thunderstorms, snowstorms, hurricane and violent cyclones will be rife, whereby tremendous amounts of water and snow will fall down from the clouds upon the Earth, causing enormous floods and snow catastrophes in the form of enormous avalanches, etc.

25. The origin for this will be in global warming, which will partially be attributed to natural causes but mostly to the environmental pollution, environmental degradation, and climate influence of the Earth people, as this has already been the case for many years.

26. The Earth’s climate is changing, and as a result, everything leads to greater evaporation of the seas, streams, rivers, and lakes, for which the greenhouse gas, CO2, is also to blame, which the people release into the atmosphere.

27. Through this, many other things also change in the nature of the Earth as well as in the planet itself, such as the circulation and the number and intensity of the winds, which are becoming increasingly stronger and more powerful and which grow to severe hurricanes, etc.

28. The two main factors, evaporation and stronger storm-related winds, make it that during the periods from spring to autumn, massive rain storms break out over the Earth, and enormous masses of water rain down and flood everything, while in the cold winter season, also vast amounts of moisture are driven over the areas of the mainland, forming into snow crystals in the cold air and leading to very unusually heavy and extreme snowfalls, which often continue for days.

29. This means, however, that the danger of avalanches will also very greatly increase in the mountains – especially in Europe – whereby the greatest destructions will be caused, and many human lives will have to be lamented through terrible deaths, when increasingly more, larger, more dangerous, and more destructive avalanches appear.

    You are not completely off but there is a lot of hyperbole in your assumptions.

    People who have a serious interest in climate and geography can sometimes use help with background education. These are very complex topics and you would want to use your best thinking. Therefore I would like to recommend a few textbooks on these subjects. (The subject is the issue, not the particular title/author. These just happen to be on my bookshelf.)

    Item 2 is good if you need an introduction, items 1 and 3 I favor in that order:

    1. "Geosystems" by Robert W. Christopherson (Pearson Prentice Hall)

    2. "Earth Science" by Edward J. Tarbuck & Frederick K. Tutgens (Pearson Prentice Hall)

    3. "Physical Geography - A Landscape Appreciation" by Tom L. McKnight & Darrel Hess (Prentice Hall)

    I don't actually see a question here; just another 'eco-rant'.

    Which means I wouldn't expect you to give a serious response to an alternative point of view (as this is). That's your right of course. But, on the off-chance that there may be others reading, whose minds are not yet shut, I've included two links below, to articles I researched and wrote (self explanatory titles), that pose questions, the answers to which I'm not arrogant (or quasi-religious) enough to pretend to know. BUT, should anyone wish to check them out, they have each attracted quite a level of very reasoned response - from both sides of the global warming debate.

    My personal opinion - (and let's face it, that's all you're backing this piece up with, your own opinion), is that we humans have very little to feel guilty about. And equally little chance of affecting Mother Nature's actions. It's actually she who is in charge. Has always been, will always be. Cheers
