The Takeaway: Climate Change.
I don't hear anything about Climate Change other than the heat effects. What about the progressive changes in the earths orbit, (around the sun), broadly researched and available from a multitude of sources in the Library of Congress 30-40 years ago, and its long term affect on climate on earth. The orbit is becoming more circular, less elongated, and gradually further from the sun--leading toward a reduction in melting of the polar ice caps,.. and leading eventually toward an ice age, "whose effects will begin to be seen in about 100 years..." That was reported in 1976-79 and repeatedly confirmed. Now we hear nothing about it in the press. Doesn't it make sense that with our colder winters, extreme contrast of weather changes, heat and drought up against really cool rain, and the frequency of intense storms and tornadoes caused by collision of these forces on the increase....a dual effect is at play?
