Managed to get through Easter without an Easter egg. Haven't had chocolate since saw a report a few weeks back about bonded child labour in cocoa picking. One childs view was "If you eat chocolate you are eating my flesh". I'm trying to find a place to buy Fair Trade chocolate thats local now. Harder to find than savoury vegetarian snacks.(No I don't want a cheese and oinion pasty thanks)
Today two friends came to visit and we took the dogs for a long walk. We talked of many things including Mel Gibsons The passion of the Christ. It was glorious in the hot April sun. I cannot believe other than that global warming is far more advanced than even the IPCC report summary out a few days ago says. This report is based on data 3 years old. In a document I published in 2004 I stated that levels had reached over 9.8 on a scale from -10 to 10. During the 3 years since the factors that will cause global warming have reached 10. I believe all possible factors are in play. Thus 10 on the scale. This will now cause an exponential growth in weather extremes, temparatures and thus sea levels. We, humans, should be preparing for this as an immediate priority or this will be the worst disaster humanity has ever known. Far greater than the Holocaust, Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Darfur, Ethiopia and Pompeii put together. I believe unluckily for mankind the sun is producing low radiation currently. A Nasa document states "the next solar minimum is expected to be in January 2007, with an uncertainty of 13 months". This means globally it should have been getting a little cooler over the last few years. Maybe I'm wrong though.
