Dry/Ice: Global Warming Revealed
by
Drunvalo Melchizedek
What you are about to read is going to change your
world forever, this I can promise you. I actually apologize that I have to be
the one who brings this unsettling news, but you must know if you wish to survive,
for what is coming will either be DRY and heat or ICE and freezing.
Global
warming has been in the news for over 40 years, and by this time we have become
complacent. Our scientists have come to the agreement that global warming will
eventually cause major changes and problems in the world, but in their way of
thinking it will be 50 to 100 years before we will actually have to deal with
the effects.
The general idea is that global warming will be slow and the world
will find time to discover the solutions to the problems.
New powerful evidence
strongly suggests that this scenario is simply wrong, and we had better prepare
for another more abrupt possibility.
DISCOVERY MAGAZINE
One of the first
hints that something may be different than what we are being told (especially
here in the US) was published in Discover magazine in September 2002 with the
cover announcing "Global Warming Surprise, A New Ice Age", "Oceanographers
have discovered a huge river of fresh water in the Atlantic formed by melting
polar ice. They warn it could soon bury the Gulf Stream, plunging North America
and Europe into frigid winters."
That was almost two years ago, and no
one listened. Life goes on oblivious to the incredible danger approaching.
ENGLAND
& SIR DAVID KING
Then in January 2004 enter Sir David King. Sir King is
the Prime Minister of England's chief scientist. Sir King went to Mr. Blair and
told him of the impending worldwide disaster and that they needed to tell the
world of what was about to happen.
Tony Blair told Sir David King to be quiet
and not speak. But Sir King felt that this was simply too important for him to
say nothing, so in January of this year he deliberately went around Mr. Blair
and went straight to the American journal Science where he published his information
and concern.
Sir King said in this article, "In my view, climate change
is the most severe problem we are facing today, more serious even than the threat
of terrorism."
England placed a gag order on Sir David King, and now he
is not even allowed to discuss this subject publicly without threat of detention.
AMERICA
& THE PENTAGON
A month later in February 2004, the Pentagon became involved,
which has stirred the world to action.
The Pentagon has been studying Global
Warming for many years because of its possible national security problems associated
with the kind of changes that could present themselves to the world through Global
Warming.
A special study was conducted through one of the Pentagon's departments,
the Office of Net Assessment, which is directed by Andrew W. Marshall, 83, who
has the responsibility of identifying long-term threats to the United States.
Mr.
Marshall went to a US based think-tank called Global Business Network to compile
the possibilities of Global Warming on US national security. A study was completed
in October of 2003 and released to the Pentagon, which was looking at this problem
from the point of view of what is the worst that could happen. It was named "An
Abrupt Climate Change Scenario and Its Implications for United States National
Security." The summary went far beyond what most Pentagon experts had expected.
Realizing
the incredible possibilities of this study, Mr. Marshall made a decision to publicly
report this and other information to the American people. And probably because
of President Bush's stance on Global Warming, which is beyond negative, he also
decided to go around the president, and he published his information and concern
in Fortune magazine on February 9th 2004.
In his article in Fortune, Mr. Marshall
explains how the melting North and South poles and glaciers from around the world
are composed of fresh water and within this fact is the basis of the impending
global weather disaster.
The Gulf Stream or scientifically referred to as North
Atlantic thermohaline conveyor is a stream of warm water that comes from south
of the equator and flows over the surface of the ocean toward the north where
this warm water keeps Northern America and Northern and Western Europe from freezing.
It also holds most of the world's weather patterns in the way we are used to.
Then
as this Gulf Stream cools down, it drops to the bottom of the ocean and returns
as a river in the ocean to the south where it warms up again and rises to the
surface and then returns to the north one more time in a continuous convection
current. It is a huge three dimensional figure eight.
The motor that keep this
warm water flowing is found in the north where the Gulf Stream drops to the bottom
of the ocean. It is the salt density of the ocean that causes this river to drop
and pulls the warm water up from the south.
Now that the poles are melting
and fresh water is flowing into the Atlantic Ocean and the salt density is decreasing,
the Gulf Stream does not drop quiet as far, which results in a slowing down of
this Stream. The Gulf Stream has been dramatically slowing down now for at least
ten years.
As the Gulf Stream slows down, the warmth is not brought to the
North Atlantic region, and the weather patterns begin to change for they are dependent
on this warmth to keep a balance.
THE MELTING POLES
The Bush Administration
During
the Bush administration when discussions have been held on the melting of the
North & South Poles, this government and US corporate entities alike have
stated that the world's scientists are all wrong on their conclusions that say
there is great danger, and have led the American public to believe there is no
real problem at all.
However, George W. Bush was the focus of attack by Sir
David King when he wrote his article in Science, for the world's greatest scientific
minds, at least one thousand seven hundred of them with the Union of Concerned
Scientists say that Mr. Bush is ill informed at the least.
Since the US government
is 25% of the CO2 pollution in the world that is creating Global Warming, a discussion
of Mr. Bush's Global Warming policies is paramount. Perhaps one of the best articles
that summaries Mr. Bush's position will be found in the ROLLING STONES magazine
article of May 19, 2004 by Tim Dickinson. What follows in italics is a portion
of this article.
Given the imminent threat from global warming, even the Bush
administration might be expected to launch a War on Heat. After all, as a candidate
in 2000, George W. Bush vowed to "establish mandatory reduction targets"
for carbon-dioxide emissions, saying he would make the issue a top priority.
Once
Bush became president, however, reducing carbon emissions was the first promise
he broke -- and his record has been all downhill from there. Only two months after
taking office, the administration withdrew from the Kyoto Protocol, the global
treaty that the United States signed in 1997 to set strict limits on greenhouse
emissions. Instead, Bush instituted a voluntary emissions plan that has been an
abject failure: So far, only fourteen companies have pledged to curb their CO2
output.
The president also folded the interagency group that monitors climate
change into the Commerce Department -- led by Secretary Don Evans, a former oil
and gas executive. And he called for additional climate research that would delay
any meaningful regulation for at least another decade. "We do not know how
much our climate could or will change in the future," Bush declared in a
speech in the Rose Garden. Such statements spurred an open letter signed by twenty
Nobel laureates, who blasted the administration for having "consistently
sought to undermine" public understanding of man's role in global warming.
(Bush's science adviser refused to be interviewed for this article.)
Then the
censorship began. In September 2002, the Environmental Protection Agency released
an air-quality report that - for the first time since 1996 - included no mention
of global warming. Seven months later, the White House made wholesale revisions
to the climate-change chapter of the EPA's "Report on the Environment,"
playing down human influence, deleting references to the health impacts of global
warming and inserting climate data funded in part by the American Petroleum Institute.
The EPA withdrew the altered chapter, acknowledging in an internal memo that it
"no longer accurately represents scientific consensus on climate change."
Even
some Republicans have been astounded at Bush's meddling in EPA affairs. "What
seems constantly evident with George W. Bush is that EPA is expected to take its
marching orders from the White House on regulatory matters," says Russell
Train, who headed the agency under Richard Nixon and Gerald Ford. "During
my time, I never had that happen. Never." Train, a recipient of a Presidential
Medal of Freedom from the elder Bush, calls the administration's approach to global
warming "totally wrong" and "irresponsible."
Bush can rely
on key Republicans in Congress to block any efforts to curb pollution and stave
off disaster. Sen. James Inhofe, chairman of the Environment and Public Works
Committee, dismisses global warming as a "hoax." In a speech last July,
Inhofe compared the IPCC to the Soviets and extolled the virtues of what he called
a "CO2-enhanced" world. "It is my fervent hope," he concluded,
"that Congress will reject the prophets of doom who peddle propaganda masquerading
as science in the name of saving the planet from catastrophic disaster."
From
another point of view in the same article we hear: "They (the Bush Administration)
do not have a credible plan, either domestically or internationally, for addressing
the problem (Global Warming), says Michael Oppenheimer, a climatologist at Princeton
University. They (the Bush Administration) argue that they don't want to address
global warming, he says, 'because the science is shaky'. And that approach is
indefensible, because the science isn't shaky."
The North Pole Melting
Let's
look at the facts. Two summers ago the North Pole completely melted for the first
time in history that we know of. Both private and military ships floated directly
over the actual North Pole as it was completely water. This area has never been
seen to be less then ten feet of solid ice.
Greenpeace a few years ago announced
that the North Pole's winter to summer snow pack had receded by around three hundred
miles, but no one listened.
And today, as I am writing this article, we are
witnessing the Alaska fire that has consumed over one million acres of forest.
This fire is burning in an area that is always wet with rain or snow until now.
And this fire, as you will understand in this article is directly related to the
melting of the poles and the Gulf Stream.
But finally the Pentagon, thanks
to Andrew Marshall, has told the truth in the Fortune magazine on February 9th.
The Pentagon shows a satellite photo of the North Pole in 1970 and then in 2003,
which reveals that, according to the Pentagon, 40% of the North Pole has melted
in just 33 years. And it is melting faster and faster now. The Pentagon has now
proven that all these government statements that the poles are not melting were
simply a lie. And it is a lie more damaging than anything that Bush's Iraq war
could possibly throw at the United States.
The South Pole Melting
In
the South Pole a couple of years ago Larsen A ledge broke off, which surprised
many scientists. At that time we were told by the scientific personnel that were
studying this event that it was no big deal since this ice ledge had only been
connected to the South Pole for about the last ten thousand years.
And these
same scientists also added that Larsen B ledge that was behind Larsen A ledge
would never melt as it has been there for many ice ages. Yet last year, Larsen's
B ledge broke off and went to sea. These same scientists said that it would take
six months to melt because of its immense size, but again they were wrong. It
melted in a mere 35 days, and more significant, it rose the entire world's oceans
by almost an inch.
Now with Larsen's B ledge gone, an incredibly enormous ice
shelf called Ross's Shelf is exposed and the only thing holding Ross's Shelf from
sliding into the ocean was Larsen's B ledge. According to my sources, Ross's Shelf
is now cracking.
If Ross's Shelf were to slide into the ocean, it has been
estimated that it would raise the entire world's oceans by sixteen to twenty feet.
And that, my friends, would change the world, as almost every coastal city in
the world and many islands along with the county of Holland would be underwater.
Perhaps it will take an event like this to wake up the world to become serious
about Global Warming.
THE ANCIENT PAST
1300 AD
The Pentagon in their
study of what is now happening in the North Atlantic ocean, has looked into the
past to see when this slowing down or stoppage of the Gulf Stream has happened
before and what actually took place at those time in the world's weather patterns.
In
actual fact, this North Atlantic ocean slowing or stoppage has happen hundreds
of times before in the past going back hundred of millions years, but in our recent
past of the last 10,000 years, it has only happened twice.
The most recent
time was in the year 1300 AD, and at that time it simply slowed down. It never
actually stopped. And why it slowed down, scientists are at the moment theorizing.
They don't really know why.
It resulted in abrupt global climatic weather changes
that never returned to normal for 550 years. This period of time in our history
has been named the "Little Ice Age" because of the havoc it caused to
our weather and the dramatic cooling that resulted.
What the Pentagon has realized
is that at that time of the "Little Ice Age", the East Coast of America
became extremely cold, while the middle and Western areas of the United States
became so dry that the Midwest became a dust bowl and the mountain forests burned
to the ground, just as they are doing right now today, for you see, this slowing
down of the Gulf Stream has been going on today for about ten years. It also affected
Europe dramatically as their weather changed completely during the "Little
Ice Age".
A study of the Anasazi Indians of the 14th century is enlightening.
In Chaco Canyon in New Mexico the Anasazi completely disappeared, and where they
went no one is sure. But one of the reasons that has emerged from the study of
the New Mexico environment for their leaving the area is that soon after the turn
of the 14th century, Chaco Canyon went into a drought where they didn't receive
a drop of rain for 47 years! 47 years of drought will definitely cause anyone
to move. No water, no life.
The archeologists who presented this study didn't
know why the drought happened, but it is clear why it happened with the information
of the Gulf Stream slowing down just before this period. And this is exactly what
the Pentagon believes is about to happen here in America, Canada and Europe as
we speak.
We may think that this current drought in the US West is going to
stop soon, but the earth's history with the Gulf Stream suggests strongly that
it will continue for about another 40 years before it begin to regain balance.
8200
Years Ago
However, the Pentagon report believes that the Gulf Stream, from
everything they know, is not just going to slow down, but rather it is going to
stop. And the last time this happened was 8200 years ago.
And according to
the Pentagon, from their research, this is a much more dramatic scenario. When
the Gulf Stream stopped 8200 years ago, it soon left Northern Europe under a half
mile of ice, and New York and England quickly endured weather similar to Siberia.
Further
it resulted in a true "Ice Age" that lasted about 100 years, and so
you can see why the Pentagon is so worried. According to Andrew Marshall, like
Sir David King, he says that this Gulf Stream problem is a greater threat to US
national security (and other countries') than all of the world's combined terrorism.
Really, when you think about it, terrorism is nothing compared to the stopping
of the Gulf Stream. It's not even close.
Realize that without stable weather
conditions, the growing of food becomes almost impossible, and according to the
Pentagon, this could become such a huge problem for the world in the near future,
that wars will begin to form all over the world, not for oil or energy, but for
food and water.
And with whole countries having to evacuate, if this were to
happen, such as Finland, Sweden and Denmark, which will be under ice, and many
other countries for other reasons, this enormous immigration is what will cause
the most threat to national security, again according to the Pentagon report.
This
is why Andrew Marshall and Sir David King wanted the world to know about what
was coming so that the world could begin to prepare for the inevitable.
THE
US SENATE
Then in March 2004 the US Senate became aware of what the Pentagon
was saying and they appropriated 60 million dollars to the study of ABRUPT GLOBAL
CLIMATE CHANGES. This offers hope that soon the US Senate will begin to tell the
world of these coming climate changes.
THE UNITED NATIONS
In June 2004,
ending on June 29th, a meeting was held at the United Nations to consider what
to do about Global Warming and the Gulf Stream. 154 countries participated with
the result that the only thing they could figure out what to do was to eliminate
the use of oil and gasoline as soon as possible.
There are those who believe
that if we continue to lower the CO2 levels, that possibly we can slow down the
problems, and, of course, we must do everything we can. This is important for
there are ocean currents other that the North Atlantic that are in every ocean,
and if they all were to stop or slow down, Earth would all most certainly enter
a true ice age. And history has shown that if that were to happen, our civilization
would not return to a warm period again for 90,000 years.
But really, to change
or increase the current of the entire Atlantic ocean to bring it back to "normal"
is beyond the possibilities of the human race and all of it's technologies. It
is too late, by the estimate of most of the world's scientists, to alter the course
of what is about to happen. All we can do now is prepare for the shock. And preparation
is essential, which is the main message of both Sir David King and Andrew Marshall.
NASA
PREPARES
On July 13th, 2004, NASA launched a satellite, the first of three,
that's whole purpose is to study Global Warming. Besides the study of the ozone,
another huge problem associated with Global Warming, these satellites will monitor
the temperature and salt density of the oceans. Perhaps we will at least be able
to monitor the rapid changes and predict what will happen next.
SOME UNUSUAL
WEATHER CHANGES THAT HAVE HAPPENED
SINCE THE GULF STREAM SLOWED DOWN
In
March 2004 the world saw a major hurricane hit the coast of Brazil. This is the
first time in all recorded history that a hurricane has struck land in South America.
In
May 2004, the United States witnessed 562 tornadoes in a single month, breaking
all records. A few of these tornadoes were recorded in Seattle, Washington. Never
has a tornado been seen in Seattle.
Eastern Canada in the winter of 2003/2004
just had one of the coldest winters on record.
For several years forest fires
have been burning around the world. The list would be extensive. The north part
of Australia is on fire. Alaska, as we have already mentioned, is burning. Unprecedented!
The
entire Western United States is under fire, jumping from region to region, with
the US government announcing that this is the worse drought in 500 years. Really,
the fires are worldwide.
France and Europe had a heat wave in 2003 that caused
15,000 people to die in France and 30,000 through-out Europe simply from the intense
heat caused by Global Warming and the Gulf Stream.
Argentina this month July
2004, had the greatest storm they have ever seen in their history.
Mexico's
weather is so strange and wet in some regions that mold/fungus is forming on their
crops. (And in other regions they are having a drought) As weather patterns begin
to change more and more radically, food growth will become one of our biggest
problems.
The coral reefs of the world are dying because of Global Warming,
and this is threatening most of the islands in the oceans, including those in
the Pacific. Anyone living on most islands will probably have to leave sooner
or later because of their fresh water being corrupted with salt ocean water. Definitely
they will have to leave if the oceans rise much higher.
Further, it was reported
on NPR this morning, July 16, 2004, that fifty percent of the CO2 that has been
released in the atmosphere from our technological society has ended up in our
oceans and this in turn is dropping the PH to the acidic. This in turn is actually
dissolving the coral reefs and killing them along with vast numbers of other life
forms in the oceans.
These are problems simply off the top of my head. If one
were to get serious and really research all the strange weather problems of the
last ten years (the years the Gulf Stream slowed down) one would begin to be truly
aware of the coming abrupt global climate weather changes that we must all adapt
to if humanity is to continue on Earth.
THE 40-FOOT WALL
In the Pentagon
report it suggests that the United States build a 40-foot wall around the entire
country to keep out people who are immigrating and trying to escape world weather
problems. The Pentagon believes that food and water will be the biggest problem,
and since the US has the money to buy food, they believe we will be best able
to resist this particular problem longer than most countries. People will want
to come here just to get food.
This sounds like something out of a weird movie,
but in fact the US government has already begun the construction of this wall
between the US and Mexico.
SIDE NOTE:
Speaking of movies, The Day After
Tomorrow, which was recently released is based on this information of the Gulf
Stream stopping. However, Hollywood exaggerated the results of the storms so much
that most people simply thought it was fantasy. It is not fantasy, it is really
happening, but will it happen as this movie predicts? And in this movie you saw
massive amount of Americans fleeing to Mexico to escape the extreme cold weather.
I
just spoke with a US military person about two weeks ago who is involved in the
construction of this 40-foot wall. In the discussion, with him about the Gulf
Stream, which he was unaware of, he said, "Oh, now I understand. You see,
the wall is straight up and down on the Mexican side, but it has steps and ladders
on the US side to get over the wall and into Mexico. I never could understand
why the government was doing this."
THE CHANGING OF THE SHAPE OF THE
GULF STREAM
In the Pentagon report they said that they believed that the stoppage
of the Gulf Stream would probably happen in three to five years from October 2003.
This was their best guess, and admittedly it was only a guess and a theory.
But
what they didn't know, because it was beginning at the actual time of their release
of their report, was that the Gulf Stream was beginning to change shape. The change
of shape of the Gulf Stream is the beginning of the breakdown and stoppage of
this warm water current and the end of our civilization as we know it.
I have
this information from two sources, both of which do not wish to be named right
now, but both of them are world famous scientists.
If this is true, then all
the effects and timing of the Pentagon report have to be shifted closer to the
present by three to five years.
I don't know if this is true, but in the vein
of holding nothing back, this info is placed in this article. The actual proof
will follow if it will be given to me.
FROM MY HEART TO YOURS
As I became
aware of this information, I didn't know what to do or if I should write this
article. But because I believe in and love humanity, I finally realized, like
Sir David King and Andrew Marshall, that I must speak out, for knowledge is power.
And
when the time comes for us all to make life decisions, my prayer is that we all
go inside where God resides and listen to our inner Heart. If we trust in ourselves
and the presence of Divine Guidance, we will all know exactly what to do and where
to be.
May God bless us all in what is about to come.
