climate systems – Paranormal Activity https://paranormalactivity.org Exploring The Unknown Wed, 14 Jul 2021 12:00:06 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.4.4 Extreme Weather Events https://paranormalactivity.org/extreme-weather-events/ https://paranormalactivity.org/extreme-weather-events/#comments Wed, 14 Jul 2021 12:00:06 +0000 http://paranormalactivity.org/extreme-weather-events/

Join Dr. Peter Carter, Paul Beckwith and Regina Valdez as they discuss the challenges we face as a result of the increasing frequency, severity, and duration of Extreme Weather Events, abbreviated EWEs.

This video was recorded on April 16th, 2021, and was first published on this channel on July 14th, 2021.

Items discussed include the following:
– Given the land and oceans continue to warm, EWEs will increase in frequency, severity, and duration.
– The toll EWEs are placing on our infrastructure and food supply.
– Both Hurricane Harvey and Katrina are discussed.
– The inevitable need for people to migrate inland from coastal cities as a result of Sea Level Rise (SLR) and EWEs.
– The reasons for the increase in EWEs is discussed.
– The EWEs we are seeing today can no longer be considered ‘natural.’
– The fact that according to the UN, EWEs have doubled in frequency over the last 20 years
– The fact that we can no longer count on the relatively stable climate of greater than 50 years ago, ‘The Holocene’, and that we have moved to a new age, ‘The Anthropocene’, where the climate will be much less stable
– The need for more aggressive activist movements to spur government action such as Extinction Rebellion.
– The impact of EWEs on crop yields
