If Allen was trying to say it is difficult for humans to change global weather patterns, then I'd say he is wrong. We have changed them. As for the jury being out. I think 90% of the scientific jury has come in and screaming out that this is ...

I think the point that Allen is trying to make is that it is probably extremely difficult for humans to effect a GLOBAL change in weather patterns.... However, I certainly agree that humans have had a very significant effect on climate at the local level ...

Some people on Pacific Islands have already had to move as their previous homes are now constantly being flooded. The Northern Ice shelf is already much much smaller each summer. So seems that things are changing already. Of course human action could ...

Check out Al Gore's movie, "An Inconvenient Truth." It has some startling facts about global warnming that he chooses not to ignore. JMO, but I wish he would have become president! Andrea

Ah, Backpacking is not the word to use if you are looking at going to either pole, you either need to be part of an expedition, a scientific program or have lots of disposable cash. I have travelled extensively in both polar regions and have been to both ...

Yep, you have to be rich and fit... Funny: the 5000 USD deposit for booking, when compared to our usual 2 dollar deposit for youth hostels...

Hey there. I actually went through a Canadian organization called Students on Ice. Itīs a neat trip because you are accompanied by a massive team of experts with free lectures and excursions ashore all the time. Also, there are about 30 students from ...
