I think that we can expect more storms like Hurricane Sandy & more drought conditions & even greater snow falls. We may not be able to directly link the devastation wrought by Hurricane Sandy to man’s pollution of the Earth’s Ecosystem, but Climate Scientists have shown that continuing to add CO2 to our atmosphere will intensify Climate Change / Global Warming. If we do not address the problem of Climate Change / Global Warming very soon, we may well find ourselves in the position of ‘doing too little, too late’. Even a small rise in the over-all temperature of our planet will change how our food is grown & the increase in the levels of the oceans will submerge our coastal areas & most of the island nations will be lost & millions of people will be affected by food shortages & the submerging of our coast lines & the submerging of the various island nations.
