We have big floodings, 11 deads yesterday :mad:
but noooooooooooooo, nothings wrong, right? It has always been like that but I've never noticed before, right?
Everything's fine, let's go on ruining our planet, we deserve what we're getting, coz nobody gives a ****.

Those are my thoughts too, people won't realize the big extension of this kind of danger before its too late..
-
But of course they wont. Maybe they will when America finally tests all of it's weapons of mass destruction in the name of democracy and tyrany. Why not? They can kill some 4 billion people on the planet and state that this was the only way to stop whatever stood in Americas way of their world domination.
Hm in the last few months I started to mix Bush with Bosch.

I ment to say that I think Bosch was evil ( In Freespace 2) and so Bush is well ahem correct me if i am wrong.... But their names do rhyme. :nod:
Well what enviromental issues do you want? If America nukes, they will create an inviromental catastrophy. :mad2: You have plenty to discuss then.

Damn... not again. Why won't the watermasses leave middle-europe alone.
Two of my classmates are on a trip there... working... they're in Prague.
When the last big flood was about a month ago I had to ask if they were ok, luckily they were... heh to tell you the truth they were the least worried ones :p

20 deads now, and 12 reported missing...

I think I've nailed the problem. Europe is stealing Australia's rain. We're (Australia) going through one of the biggest droughts in history. We can only have our sprinklers on twice per week because of water restrictions and the like. Many farmers have had to retire because of no rain. We had more rain in the summer of 1995 than the winter of 2002!

Sprinklers? Lucky you :p
Actually, I'll tell you where all our water's going - South America. El Nino is messing around with the Pacific again sending lots of water and floods over there, and dry air over here. It'd be nice to attribute global warming as the cause and blame someone though.... ;)
-
We could use a bit too. the East Coast as been under a drought for a couple years now ...this year's been fairly worse ,... water restrictions are at an all time high. I've heard some places it's gotten to upwards of a $100-$500 fine for watering the lawn on the wrong day (Glad I'm not one of those yuppies that has to have a prestine front lawn to show off :D lol
-
* looks outside window at the soft rain *
Yup, all's fine here... :)

Do you have weather reports from the last couple of millenia to see if this is not actually a common situation?
-
It's actually always been like that in some areas of the world. :D (e.g. monsoon season in ndia)

but we're talking about england :p

while here in Estonia, there has been approx. two days of rain in the past 2 months.
I'm not complaining, but when the dams that have stood for the last century or so are not enough to stop the flooding, then something IS evidently wrong.
and this good weather is starting to piss me off. There's just too much to do with good weather than to sit on HLP and/or FRED.

And Scotland.... here's a weather phenomenon for you;
every day I work (tues, Wed, Sat), the weather has been perfect. Literally.
-
sun all week on scotland?
Now I'm really worried...
:p
-
well today was a bit hazy, yestardy was nice. Saturday was crap, just rained.
...but anyway.. more floods in eastern europe? Not again. I know someone who was out in Poland when there was the last floods a month ago... now she is in Italy.
There was a lot of flooding in Inverness on, Monday I think. One person killed i think, lots of roads subsiding, mudslides etc.
Hasnt really been flooding in my part of scotland for... about 7 years now.
-
...
Gnar?
People don't really care about people they've never even heard of, much less met. It's just impossible to sympathize, particularly when there's nothing they can do about the situation. This is news?
-
Ah yes, it's more due to a combination of El Ninio and building on flood planes.
