New warning over climate change from Siberian Arctic - BBC News

Stark new findings of an international team of scientists led by the UK Met Office has raise profound questions about the future of the earth's climate.

The team says that a prolonged heatwave in the Siberian Arctic this year is “unequivocal evidence of climate change’”. The scientists say the record rise in temperatures there would be impossible without man-made global warming.

The findings are of serious concern because here in the UK and the rest of Europe, the Arctic drives much of the weather systems we experience.

Humankind seems to excel in ignoring anything that sounds inconvenient. When they are drowning they'll say "somebody should have done something about this".

When humans ignore the problems climate change presents, I hope they are content when their houses are flooded, people cannot enjoy snow and all the beautiful fish and coral in the oceans are dead. Thanks a lot you guys.

Dear humans, you brought it on yourselves and you deserve what you get. What a shame other animals have to suffer, too.

Climate change is a big issue in the world. Yet our incompetent government seems to not care at all about this matter. Climate change could be disastrous at the end.

I'm in Ohio and I have 2 bumble bees, very few moths and summer insects in general. The bees are pretty much gone, the small bees in the clover are numerous, bumble bees, only 2. I had many in the past. Butterflies? I saw 1 and I don't live in town either. And 1 bat also.
