Global Warming

 

Effects of Climate Change Are Rampant Throughout the World


A huge change is underway across the globe and in its atmosphere, scientists report, that is affecting not only nature, but the lives and homes of millions of people. Changes can be measured from the highest mountains to deep in the oceans and are leading to extinction for parts of earth's rich biodiversity. For humans, the changes in climate are particularly dangerous to people who live near the ocean shore and who already suffer from drought, flooding and poverty. Many of these effects have been known previously. But this comprehensive new report carries the imprimature of the United Nations and gathers together and analyzes hundreds of published research papers.

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change released this latest report: "Climate Change 2007: Impacts, Adaptation and Vulnerability," in Brussels, 6 April 2007. Their summary document shows an increasing impact to natural systems and living things as earth's temperature rises degree by degree. The vulnerabilities reported are stark and focus on people already at risk in the world's poorer nations -- people who have had little to do with the increase of the greenhouse effect in the atmosphere. The scientists indicate that in a few areas, agriculture may improve in the early part of the warming expected this century. But they make clear that unpleasant circumstances are the major effect and that more are in store unless we control our use of fossil fuel and other sources of heat-trapping gases.

The summary report is a consensus document and is subject to last minute changes suggested by world governments and negotiated with the scientific authors. As bad as the report seemed, many news reports emerging from Brussels indicated some scientists said the consensus process left out some serious effects and watered down the language of the summary. It is expected that many more details and straight information from research will be available in the 1500 page full report. More info on this part of the IPCC 2007 study will be posted here later. My article on the first section in February is here.

Sexism
Related to country: Canada



"M.F.C:Men For Change is a pro-feminist organization. Men continue to grow
by sharing their own stories and by listening to the stories of women. Men
have a great deal to learn from their partners(wives & girlfriends),
daughters, mothers and friends who challenge and support us as men review
and reconstruct their relationships and notions of power." these were the exact
words a man had said and posted on the internet, even though it was known as
an anonymous man.

Hi, I'm Neroshan Srivamadevan and I'm here to talk you about how men treat
women unequally, and also how women, even treat men unequally. I am here to
you about sexism.

Listening to women (as well as sharing our own stories) is a fundamental
step towards ending the division and intolerance of sexism that isolates
us all from forming authentic relationships and bringing about lasting
social change.

Women should be treated equally as the men. A women can do anything a man
can do, they can even do more.

Up to this point I've been writing from a man's point of view. Now I will show
females as well how it is to be sexist or to be in a situation.

If you're thinking these men are sexist, wait until I get to the females. The
females always think that men are stupid or dumber than they are. It's true
that a female can be smarter than a male, but they are not smarter than
all the males.

When I was at wonderland, a man, who was a father of probably a two year
old baby, brought his child into the washroom, the one near the pools, to
change the baby's diapers. Three seconds later the man's wife comes
barging in yelling, and screaming saying, "You're a man,a father, not
a woman or mother. You're stupid and dumb. How can a man like you change a
baby's diapers? Only women can change babies."

The man must of been really embarrassed, right? Wouldn’t have you been
embarrassed as well either as a girl or boy? It’s totally wrong to be
sexist.

I think that being sexist should be a law. But this is only my opinion, what's yours?
Thank you for your time, but I think you didn't have a choice
