Global Meltdown
Plane sinks in melting asphalt at Moscow airport
Source: Russia Today
A passenger aircraft got stuck at Domodedovo airport for over 4 hours after its landing gear sank in melting asphalt of one of the taxiways due to a strong heat wave that hit Moscow.
As temperatures peaked at 35 degrees Celsius (95 Fahrenheit) on Tuesday, an S7 flight from Domodedovo Airport enroute from Moscow to Novosibirsk took off at 16:00 local time instead of a scheduled take-off at 11:15.
Arctic thaw — carry on regardless?

When a colleague who has a lot of sympathy for those who do NOT accept that humans are responsible for global warming drew attention to the fact that this had been the hottest June on record, following hard on the hottest May, I must admit I was temporarily put of my guard.
Climate Records Shattered in 2013

If global warming could be compared to middle-age weight gain, then Earth is growing a boomer belly, according to a newly released report on the state of the global climate.
Cataclysmic Fires are Raging Across the Northern Hemisphere
While many are still confused by the ongoing assault of climate disinformation, the planet is burning to the ground, literally. We are all now drifting in uncharted waters. An ever worsening climate hell is unfolding around us by the day while the vast majority of the population is completely oblivious. Denial is epidemic on all sides of the fence in one form or another. Some of the most deeply rooted denial is in the climate science community. Countless academicians are completely silent and blind to the ongoing geoengineering circus being conducted in skies around the globe day in and day out. The IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) is the largest scientific panel on any subject in human history. Virtually all their modeling is essentially worthless. None of it even considers the horrific effects of geoengineering or the climate feedback loops that it helps to feed. Catastrophic ozone depletion, total disruption of the hydrological cycle, methane release, and a completely contaminated planet, all are connected to climate engineering. Many have been trained to think the climate modeling is “alarmist”, the truth is quite the opposite. The planetary meltdown is far worse than almost any modeling suggests. Though there are of course countless other sources of human activities wreaking havoc on the biosphere, global geoengineering programs are the greatest assault of all on our planet. The article below should be a wake up call, the forests of Earth are burning to the ground.

We know that some things are adapting to a warmer climate by migrating north. Some of these species include the Mangrove forest, butterflies, fish, mosquitos and many others. NOAA has added a terrifying new entry to this list, the latitude where hurricanes, typhoons, and cyclones reach their maximum intensity.
Canada Struggles with Melting Permafrost as Climate Warms
In 2006, reduced thickness of ice roads forced the Diavik Diamond Mine in Northern Canada to fly in fuel rather than try to transport cargo across melted pathways, at an extra cost of $11.25 million.
The mountain pine beetle outbreak in British Columbia—fueled by higher winter temperatures that allow insects to survive—expanded in recent years to be 10 times greater than any previously recorded outbreak in the province. Mortality rates of sockeye salmon, meanwhile, have increased because of higher water temperatures in the Fraser River.

Greenland Meltdown Is Accelerating Rapidly
The power structure is still confusing much of the American population about the true state of the climate. A massively geoengineered Eastern US has convinced many the planet is cooling. The completely controlled corporate media machine has fortified this totally false conclusion with well orchestrated headlines, falsified data, and complete omissions of facts from the front lines. The epidemic of “normalcy bias” is still blinding the masses. This must change if we are to have any chance at all. We are all standing on the deck of the Titanic and the water is already up to our knees. There is no shortage of denial in many circles. Climate Scientists deny the all too obvious climate engineering and many anti-geoengineering activists deny that the planet is rapidly warming. All must learn to get past their mental filters and look through a clear lens. Yet again the article below incorrectly omits the issue of climate engineering, but the facts from the ground outlined in the article are never the less accurate and on target based on all recognized sources. We must all constantly examine the wider picture in order to correctly connect the dots.

Climate Scientists Continue To Deny Geoengineering Decimation As Planetary Meltdown Accelerates
Though the data from the ground outlined in the article below is valid, it is ever more incomprehensible that the entire climate science community continues to totally omit any mention of the geoengineering elephant in the room. This being said, the rest of the information contained in articles that are giving up to date reports from the front lines is still valid. We must all learn to sift the baby from the bathwater, to connect the appropriate dots. The climate unraveling and meltdown is accelerating by the day, there will be no hiding the gravity of what we face much longer. As the curtain is pulled back, geoengineering will become ever harder to keep from the public view. We must all look at the wider horizon, not just through the lens of already formed conclusions of reality based on headlines and the opinions of our peers.

Geoengineering And Rains Of Biblical Proportions, Are They Connected?
Catastrophic flooding is occurring in country after country, now China is in the cross hairs. Rain for 41 days in a row has caused the loss of over 9000 homes . Record floods and record droughts are both being fueled by the absolutely constant spraying of our atmosphere from the ongoing climate engineering programs. The hydrological cycle has been completely derailed while the entire surface of the planet is continuously contaminated by the non stop geoengineering. The scenario we all face is extremely non linear, the climate chaos will accelerate ever more rapidly from here.

Indian Heat Wave Claims Hundreds Of Lives
The recent record-breaking heat wave that scorched much of India last week has claimed at least 169 lives in the state of Andhra Pradesh in the southeast of the country. In the state of Odisha to the north, officials announced Monday that the start of the school year would be delayed by at least 5 days in hopes that the current heatwave would break before students were crowded back into sweltering classrooms. The heatwave has, so far, claimed at least 26 lives in the state.
Spring 2014 Is The Hottest Ever Recorded
Even with constant and radical falsification of “official” temperature readings and records to the DOWN side, high temperature records around the globe continue to be broken. The warmer our planet gets, the more the geoengineers ramp up their already relentless assault of toxic aerosol spraying on our imploding biosphere. Though the climate engineers can and have cooled down specific regions in order to create headlines and confusion as to the state of the climate (like the Eastern US), the overall effect of the spraying is accelerated warming. Climate engineering is tearing the planets life support systems apart from top to bottom. The nonstop toxic spraying is literally poisoning the entire web of life. We must all stand and make our voices heard while there is yet time to make a difference.

Geoengineering And Near Term Planetary Extinction
Very few have any idea of what is rapidly unfolding around us all. The corporate controlled main stream has very successfully fueled the inherent human propensity to ignore and deny alarming and uncomfortable truths. Populations as a whole have willingly embraced the mountain of lies that has been dished up to them. Public acceptance of spoon fed delusions and propaganda has to date kept the “loot, pillage, and plunder” party on Planet Earth going. This chapter is ending by the day as the biosphere responds to the centuries long all out war that has been waged against its life sustaining systems. The sixth great extinction to occur on Earth is now, this is an undeniable statistical fact. The scenario we collectively face is unlike previous events. This time around, if we remain on our current course, all life on our planet will be extinguished.

UK weather: Spring set to be the ‘third hottest on record’, Met Office says
The UK is on course for the third warmest spring since records began, forecasters say.
The Met Office said an average March-May temperature of 8.97C (48.15F) would be beaten only by 2007 and 2011 in the records, which date back to 1910.

Global Warming: Confronting the Realities of Climate Change
Sea level rise is accelerating. The number of large wildfires is growing. Dangerous heat waves are becoming more common. Extreme storm events are increasing in many areas. More severe droughts are occurring in others.
These are just some of the consequences of global warming, which are already having significant and harmful effects on our health, our environment, and our communities.
Unless we take immediate action to address global warming, these consequences will continue to intensify, grow ever more costly, and increasingly affect the entire planet — including you, your community, and your family.
Global warming is happening now.
The planet’s temperature is rising. The trend is clear and unmistakable.
Every one of the past 37 years has been warmer than the 20th century average. The 12 warmest years on record have all occurred since 1998. 2012 was the hottest year ever recorded for the contiguous United States.
Globally, the average surface temperature has increased more than one degree Fahrenheit since the late 1800s. Most of that increase has occurred over just the past three decades.
We are the cause.
We are overloading our atmosphere with carbon dioxide, which traps heat and steadily drives up the planet’s temperature. Where does all this carbon come from? The fossil fuels we burn for energy — coal, natural gas, and oil — plus the loss of forests due to deforestation, especially in the tropics.
The scientific evidence is clear.
Within the scientific community, there is no debate: An overwhelming majority of climate scientists agree that global warming is happening and that human activity is the primary cause.
This broad consensus — and the extensive scientific evidence that supports it — is often downplayed or distorted by a small but vocal minority of special interests that have a vested interest in delaying action on climate change.
We have a choice.
We can act now to reduce our carbon emissions, slow the pace of global warming, and pass on a safer, healthier world to our children. Or we can choose to do nothing, continue pumping massive amounts of carbon into an already overloaded atmosphere, and suffer the increasingly costly consequences.
At UCS, we believe the choice is clear: We must take steps now to reduce our global warming emissions.
Together we can tackle global warming.
We have the practical solutions and technologies at hand to substantially reduce our emissions, create a clean energy economy, and establish the United States as a global leader in innovation.
To accomplish it, we must:
- Demand action from our elected leaders
- Take simple, practical steps to reduce our personal carbon emissions
- Aggressively fight misinformation about global warming
- Prepare our cities and communities for the growing impacts of climate change
Working together, we can do it — and you can help make it happen. Take action today!

Greenland Could Become Greater Contributor To Sea Level Rise Than Previously Expected
University of California – Irvine
Major UCI-NASA work reveals long, deep valleys connecting ice cap to the ocean
Greenland’s icy reaches are far more vulnerable to warm ocean waters from climate change than had been thought, according to new research by UC Irvine and NASA glaciologists. The work, published May 18 in Nature Geoscience, shows previously uncharted deep valleys stretching for dozens of miles under the Greenland Ice Sheet.
