On the overheating of the atmosphere the planet will respond powerful volcanic emissions.
This weather apocalypse occurred in South Asia May 19, 2016, when he was beaten by the global temperature record in the history of observations. Heat in Phalodi city in the western state of Rajasthan in India has jumped to the level fatally dangerous 51 degrees. In New Delhi, the temperature reached 47. In this unbearable heat coincided with another environmental problem - drought. 330 million. Hindus were in the zone of a humanitarian catastrophe due to the lack of water.
When South Asia sizzling sun flooded Europe. France, for example, has experienced more rainy May since 1886. This was reported by "Radio France Internationale", examining the archives. Weather forecasts for the future are not encouraging.
Estimates suggest that by 2050, the intensity of the precipitation and the probability of flooding in the Old World to double, says Jeroen Aerts, director of climate risks Institute for Environmental Studies in Amsterdam. Across the Atlantic, in America, the weather seems to be too crazy.
US National Weather Service predicted temperatures of over 100 degrees Fahrenheit (38 Celsius) in some areas of Arizona and Nevada. More than 17 million people in Washington, DC, Baltimore, Miami Beach, Florida and North Carolina, were in danger threatens the area, said the center of storm forecasting. In the south-east and central Texas were heavy rains that led to the deaths of nine soldiers. 2.5-ton vehicle in which they were returning from exercise, high-powered stream of water carried away. The Southern California wildfires are raging, people throw their homes.
US weather forecasters say that 2016 will be worse than the previous one, although the 2015 th was considered the most "hot" in recent history. By the way, the total average of the continents and the ocean surface temperature in November 2015 was the highest for the entire 136-year period of observation and amounted 13,87 ° C. If we compare with 2013 year, then there is an increase of 0,15 ° C. Moreover, the closer to the poles, the more climate change. For example, in Finland and Canada in November, the temperature increased by 5 ° C than the average value for the period 1981-2010 years, whereas in Australia - at 1.88 ° C, in the US - at 1.7 ° C. Northern Hemisphere has warmed more than the South.
When asked what is the reason, scientists have found the answer. No one doubts that climate change is caused primarily by human factors. The greenhouse effect triggered by the industrial world, carries the most serious threat for worldwide climate. Ecologist Justin Gillis in the pages of "The New York Times" wrote: "A large amount of research data shows that industrial emissions and, as a consequence, the atmosphere overheating determine weather extremes: snow, rain, cold, heat, thunderstorms and storms, as well as social cataclysms famine, war, government coups, terrorism and state repression. "
However, if we consider the planetary heat balance of the atmosphere, hydrosphere and land have always received more heat than it absorbs. Moreover, an excess of solar and atmospheric radiation, in theory, balanced by reflective radiation and non-radiation exchange with the atmosphere, which in turn gave the excess heat to outer space. Still, for 4.54 billion years of Earth's existence, the climate has changed in a fairly wide range.
For example, in the "age of the dinosaurs," the average temperature was higher than today at 5-10 ° C. A large-scale glaciation over the past 2 million years. Earth's surface happen, at least four times. Even "after the birth of Christ," the historians recorded warm "Viking Age» (IX-XII centuries.), Where the vineyards grow on the shores of the Baltic Sea. By the way, the first signs of this warming, climate scientists began to observe in the early XX century. Thus, the average temperature of the water in sea Barents years 1919-1928. It turned out to be 1,8 ° C higher than in 1912-1918.
Environmentalist Michael Snyder believes that our Earth is a self-regulating system that has a protective mechanism in the event of "overheating". Otherwise life, as such, would have disappeared. According to him, effective weapon "celestial office" is volcanism. "Maybe that's why our planet begins to thoroughly shake - says Snyder. - Right now there is 40 eruptions. "
The fact that volcanoes can lower the average global temperature is already no doubt. For example, the eruption of Krakatoa in Indonesia in 1883, for a variety of research, the Earth cooled almost 1,2 ° C.
On the other hand, if there are post-volcanic phenomena and the climate in our interconnected world should influence volcanic activity. The fact that the main volcanoes are located in the marginal parts of the continents, and particularly developed within island arcs, which border the deep-sea trench.
When the global ocean water becomes larger, it presses harder on the bottom. By the way, according to one version, "the era of dinosaurs" ended as a result of the so-called thalassocratic flooding (from the Greek thálassa -. Sea and krátos - force), after which began with volcanic eruptions of dust and ash emissions in the amount of up to 900 million cubic meters per year. In addition, the frequent rains, heavy snowfall, high winds caused by global warming, day after day destroy the hills and mountains, making them easier. It also changes the balance in the asthenosphere (the layer in the upper mantle of the planet), and contributes to isostasy (the phenomenon in which the mountains are subject to raise, as they are destroyed).
Mankind through industrial emissions can affect the processes occurring at depths of 100-120 km under the continents and 50-60 km beneath the oceans. If so, the current climate change means that "the nature of a finger already on the trigger" powerful eruptions, said Michael Snyder. This is exactly the case when you should be safe, especially because of the danger of indirect factors suggest. Often, before the eruptions observed a series of earthquakes, as it was just before awakening * Turrialba in Costa Rica.
"Something similar is happening today in the area of the three largest volcanoes in the US - says Michael Snyder. - Over the last month a lot of devices counted impulses in the St. Helens **, *** Rainier and around Yellowstone, which is considered the most dangerous. "
Since June 9, in the north-western borders of Yellowstone Park was registered quite significant magnitude 3.7 jolt ball, and June 13 was six aftershocks of magnitude 4.3 has to balls. Seismologists say that a volcanic eruption can cause an earthquake more than 6 points.
According to the calculations of American scientists will make the Yellowstone explosion area disaster area of about 10 thousand square meters. km.
You can have different attitudes to the hypothesis of Michael Snyder, as well as other statements about the causal relationship between climate and volcanism. By and large, scientists have not reached a consensus on this issue. In any case, none of the professional seismologists can not foretell the eruption of the Yellowstone, which has become a red rag for the anti-American.
But one thing is clear: even if you do not happen to global catastrophe, humanity can not avoid an armed struggle for water and agricultural land. And Russia, is likely to be the main purpose of the climate wars.
However, there is another alternative, lies in the fact that the "golden billion" reduced their appetites. That's just unlikely it will "civilized" Americans and Europeans.
* - Active volcano in North America.
** - The active stratovolcano located in Skamania County, Washington State.
*** - Stratovolcano in Washington State.
