No One Believes in Global Warming

In particular, it was revealed that almost all Africans interviewed say that the climate is changing and that it affects the lives of humanity, but do not link these changes to global causes, such as carbon dioxide emissions.

More and more Britons are skeptical of global warming, reports the Daily Mail. Survey of 1,822 people, conducted by Ipsos Mori commissioned by Cardiff University (Cardiff University), showed that today’s climate change believe 78% of UK residents. Five years ago the figure was 91%.

British (and not only they) have ceased to believe climatologists after the end of November last year was leaked to the Internet correspondence scientists Climate Centre of the University of East Anglia (University of East Anglia’s Climatic Research Unit). These messages are full of evidence of manipulation of data for evidence of the existence of global warming. Doubts about global warming have intensified the public, and after a winter of this year, which was the coldest in the last three decades.

According to the survey, only 40% of respondents believe in the seriousness of global warming. 18% believed that climate changes are due to natural processes. Nearly two-thirds of those surveyed would like to reduce their electricity consumption has helped to solve the problem. 40% willing to pay for energy-saving technique is much more than now.

Curious findings Africa Talks Climate Report, conducted by BBC World Service Fund and the British Council (British. In particular, it was revealed that almost all Africans interviewed say that the climate is changing and that it affects the lives of humanity, but do not link these changes to global causes, such as carbon dioxide emissions.

Instead, many Africans are blaming yourself and others in the climate change and environmental degradation, although carbon dioxide emissions from burning fossil fuels African countries account for only 4% of the global total. According to another popular view that climate change is a punishment from above for the sins of mankind.

“Around the World” says that many primates, including kolobinovyh monkeys are threatened with extinction because of global warming.

Higher risk in gorillas, which are left in the wild only 50 thousand individuals. Primates can not survive if the atmospheric temperature will rise at least at 2′C.

Monkeys in South America may not see a global temperature increase at 2′C. However, if the atmosphere warms up for another couple of degrees, areas of primate habitats become fragmented, which could have dire consequences for the monkeys.

Meanwhile, climatologists expect that by 2060 the average world temperature will rise at 4′C. On a more optimistic estimates, it will happen by 2070, which, however, not much better. Increase in average temperature 4′C will, in addition to further warming in many regions, even to a change in precipitation.

Due to climate change dangerous microorganisms can exist in the territory, far above their natural habitat. Global warming will also enable the agents to migrate from the traditional disease focus of the disease to have not affected its people.
