Declassified evidence of global warming, George Bush, who hid
Scientists have warned that if the growth in emissions of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere continues, it will lead to a reduction in rainfall in southern Europe, North America, some parts of Africa and Australia
The U.S. military presented photos showing the devastating effects of global warming in the Arctic, writes The Observer. Images are kept secret by Washington in the days of the presidency of George Bush, have been declassified White House last week.
The current President of the United States Barack Obama is trying to persuade Congress and the American public to take steps to halt the destructive climate change, caused by increased levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, it is noted in the article.
Photos that have been made with intelligence satellites over the past decade have confirmed that in recent years, the zone of polar latitudes during the summer months began to lose their ice caps.
In particular, the series of photographs, selected from thousands submitted, you can see the panorama of the port of Barrow in Alaska. One of them made in July 2006, sea ice adjacent to the shore. The second shows that in July next year, the coastal waters are not covered by ice, says the British edition.
Global climate change is not stopped, found U.S. scientists
Earlier, in January this year, American scientists announced the results of a study conducted by the Ministry of Energy, that the effects of global climate change on our planet have become irreversible. The experts found that even if in some way be able to stop carbon dioxide emissions, greenhouse effect, the average temperature on Earth will still be maintained at a high level for a further period of at least a thousand years.
Scientists have warned that if the growth in emissions of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere continues, it will lead to a reduction in rainfall in southern Europe, North America, some parts of Africa and Australia. All these regions are already suffering from a dry climate. According to the researchers, is in the process of global warming is partly to slow the oceans absorb heat. However, this heat anyway, eventually, back into the atmosphere by evaporation of water.
Stunning report coincided with the scientists call the U.S. president (the state, which is one of the main pollutants of the world) Barak Obama to revise the existing and approved by the previous administration of George Bush's standards for acceptable standards of air pollution. Appropriate guidelines he gave to the National Agency for Environmental Protection.
Obama then ordered that the Agency consider the exclusion of California, considered the most active defender of the ecology, and another 13 states from the federal contract for allowable air pollution. California proposes by 2016 to reduce emissions of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere by 30% due to improvements in the automobile industry.
At the same time, Obama appealed to the automotive companies with the requirement to make a fuel produced by cars more efficient. The previous law adopted in 2007, states that since 2020, cars and trucks will have to drive 35 miles on one gallon of gasoline, that is to spend about 6.72 liters of fuel per 100 kilometers. However, Barack Obama plans to implement this program as early as 2011.
We remind the Minister of Energy in the Obama administration became a well-known specialist in the field of combating global warming, a Nobel laureate in physics Steven Chu.
Previously, many countries have criticized the Bush administration's stance on the issue of combating climate change. During the presidency of his predecessor, Bill Clinton, the U.S. joined the international Kyoto Protocol of reducing emissions. However, shortly after joining the Bush White House in January 2001, the United States withdrew its signature to the document.
In 2007, there were reports that under pressure from U.S. business and foreign allies, the Bush administration may enter into all areas of the economy quotas on greenhouse gas emissions. Last year, Bush promised that the United States will stop the growth of greenhouse gas emissions by 2025. The validity of the Kyoto Protocol expires in 2012.
