I hear what you say about the hype on 2012, but, there is a reason for the hype?....I honestly believe that Scientist (not all) could be doing this to try to get us to listen?....i prefer to err on the side of caution and although dont consider myself to be an alarmist or get carried away with 'hype' the more I read about our climate the more alarmed I become ...!!!!!....tis not looking good is it?....it's almost as if Mother Earth is saying to us ' you dont honestly expect to get away with stripping me bare and bleeding me dry do you'!!....
In respect of the article I read re the climate change/shift in Siberia, it was a very long and sometimes complicated description relating to the release of Methane gas at a 'PERILOUS' rate, and went on to say that it could trigger the Global Climate Shift....you really have to read it, but be warned, it is not painting a pretty picture and after reading it all sorts of things are starting to cross my mind ......anyway (intake of breath).....worrying times ahead re Korea situation.(eeeek!!) I'm nr Leeds rd (Bradley)
