Concerned citizen for our planet.

WELCOME TO OUR GENERAL BLOG YOU ARE INVITED. Here, we will post articles about world issues, Australian issues, Italian issues. And we will post also my personal life story articles. 
We must be concerned about what is happening on our planet earth, because this is the only planet we have. So, I hope that we find a way how to stop this global warming.  

Welcome to our article, Concerned citizen views.  

Dear readers, I am concerned about the future of our planet, so, today I am reposting this blog, because what I can say, I have already said before in this blog. Anyhow, I will update this blog at the very end to show you what I mean. 

Now, as a citizen of this world I am concerned. You see, we need to ask ourselves, whether what is happening in the world these days is our own fault; because the experts think that global warming could be our fault. But there are also other things happening, which can put our lives at risk. Today, whenever we turn on the TV or other devices to hear the news, there are alarming facts happening around us; most of these alarming facts are man-made; one of these is global warming. 

You see, today we are concerns, because these violent natural events that are happening are believed to be caused partly from ourselves, or we play a part that can increase them; the weather these days is changing, most times it is extremely hot, this gives rise to fires that cannot be controlled, they burn for days destroying everything in their way, then there are violent thunder storm that happen frequently, there are huge cyclones more destructive than before.

We are talking about global warming, and we the people are mainly to blame for it, because global warming is causing these negative things to happen. So, we should be concerned about it, and we should try to do our best to improve the situation if we can, hoping that this global warming can be controlled, or at least kept to a minimum.

Now that I have explained what this article is about, I am going to  say that I have written several articles in Hub Pages, talking about my life activities, now I am turning my attention to write about what is happening in the world today, starting with this article, Concerned citizen views. I hope that I can write a few articles about what can concern everybody, in the hope that my articles can help.

This citizen of the world is concerned. 

Now, this citizen is concerned, not only about the weather, but also because there are other things happening, which may put our own lives at risk. There are wars going on, there are refugees coming from everywhere, there are some very cruel killings that upset us deeply, and there are other things, some of these things include Mother Nature herself playing the main part.

Here, we want to talk about Mother Nature; and we are going to talk about the cyclonic weather that these days is damaging Vanuatu and then heading for New Zealand, leaving behind this natural disaster.

Now, this natural disaster is happening because of the global warming affect, so, I believe that it could be our own fault, but some others happenings are not so clear to see where they come from, but it is most likely that we have contributed to cause them; now, if we have contributed to cause them, then it is logic that it is our duty to look for the cause and effect that we have contributed, so that we can avoid to make the same mistake in the future. If we know what to do, we may be able to avoid the harm that they are causing, whatever that harm could be.

Now, if you want to see this cyclone we are talking about, click on the link below

These violent weathers happening seem to come more often these days, or is it my imagination, whatever it is, it would be good to look at the situation closely, perhaps it is the global warming that is to blame; now if the global warming is to blame, then it is time that we try harder to do something about it, but let us explain a few things hereunder first.

-------------------------------

Cyclones, hurricanes and typhoons. 

There is no much difference, in the destructive force that these three types of tropical violent storms may bring, they are just different name for the same violent weather disturbance, so, they are more or less all the same but they are named according to where they are happening, in the South Pacific they are called cyclone, in the Atlantic and North Pacific they are called hurricane and in Asia they are called typhoon.

These violent weather events occur, when it is hot and the water temperature in the ocean is 26 degrees Celsius or more, so they don’t happen when the weather is much cooler than that, for that reason we should be concerned, since there is also the global warming, which is steadily increasing the earth temperature, and this may increase these violent weather events.

These super storms can measure between 500 and 1000 Kilometres in diameter, they are very destructive, we also should keep in mind that in the future they might become more powerful and violent, because of the global warming effect. Here under is a link to cyclone Pam moving towards Vanuatu

What we should be concerned about today, is that all low laying areas will be damaged when these cyclones happen. Now the most concerned people should be those people that live on islands that are only a few meters above sea level, because they could be copping it both ways, if the global warming cannot be resolved, so, let us look at a couple of things.

One; the sea level will slowly raise, and the island will become smaller and less abatable;

Two, if the island is small and flat, those people that live there should ask themselves, if it is safe enough to remain to live on this island; because with the sea level raising, and the cyclones becoming stronger soon or later it is going to become inhabitable.

--------------------------------------

Climatic change. 

Climatic change also known as global warming is one of those things that the entire world should worry about, because this can bring negative happenings, as we have already mentioned above.

As we know a few things are being done to study the effect of global warming, and a few speeches have been delivered by high enough people to be noted, but very little has been done to stop or reverse this trend; so, let us see what we know;

The term global warming means an increase in the average temperature of the earth surface, the air and the oceans waters, these changes in temperatures have been monitored since 1950, and they have found that the temperature is slowly but steadily increasing, but we don’t seem to do much about this danger, even though we know that something needs to be done.

There are a few things that we could mention here, but I am only going to mention a couple of them and paste here links to the main events that these important people have addressed; Nobel Peace with Al Gore for landmark works on climate change: Al Gore has done a fair bit of work on climatic change but he seems to be slowing down presently.

Then we could mention President Obama’s Speech:

--------------------------

As you can see a few things are being done every now and then, but it is not continuous, whereas the weather worsens as the time goes by; for this reason, we should be concerned. 

Anyhow, today while I am editing this article, is January 2022. So, I can add here that the last year meeting about global warming was held in Glasgow England, and again they have promised many things but so far nothing has been done. Even the queen is telling us that, and I paste a short quote. 

  The Queen slams world leaders not committing to climate summit

The Queen says she is 'irritated' by world leaders who are not planning to attend the upcoming Cop26 climate change summit in Glasgow - with Scott Morrison yet to confirm if he will make the trip. (End of quote).

Anyhow, we need to do something soon, if we do not do anything, the only thing we can do is to pray God to help us, when thing happen.  

I believe that we have said enough in this article, so, see you in our next article, about another destructive weather events and other human failure, called, Playing the game, who is to blame, in our post, Floods, who is to blame
