average person so we've got a very interesting little consequence of climate change and that is that vasu regions of the north near the arctic circle are falling out what used to be tundra is now where they can actually sustain plant life is so these massive force are growing as we've got some interesting quotes regarding that as a result of enhanced warming and a longer growing season large patches of the grisly productive agitation now stand a third of the northern landscape are more than three point five million square miles for nine million square plotters that is an area by people to the contiguous united states that's amazing found out that just that it's happening i dot e cannot see actually some of the damage that the following of the country can do in terms of like taking on buildings and things like that but just this year or more of a situation that's popping up it something that most people are really aware of it doesn't get covered much in the corporate mainstream media but you know what nasa has done this is based on satellite member measurements and and other measurements but they found that the uh... that vegetation has moved north by about seven degrees latitude in just thirty years now that's because that's only as far back as the satellite record goes we won't have enough there for about thirty years now but it's it's a pretty stunning measurement and it does show that the arctic is changing where you know the arctic is changing faster than the rest of the globe it's actually warming faster than the rest of lok this past summer we had a record arctic c_i_a_'s extensive is the lowest it's been ibmca bizarre bazaar various of changes that are happening right now that nasa is swinging their heads out trying to get people to pay attention to there's a couple of other things you can check all these out at our website green news dot brad blog dot com and so we have all the links all the staff dislike it these really fast but there i was another study that came out last week that the uh... the recent heat spike that we've been uh... observing right now is the highest it's been an eleven thousand years they were able to actually go back and take the had a hockey stick graph that has been very popular come on prime time stan meyer's and they've actually sent it back to eleven thousand years and they do see that the temperature spike that we've seen last one hundred years is unprecedented since the last by statements using uh... seventy six sites around the world thirty-six proper proxy measurements you know there's been quite a bit of information coming out and just last week you know and you just don't care about this online most of the media so thank you guys for covering though from so really fast obvious it is the first time hearing about the situation could that actually in some way to help with the problem because it would trap more carbon v is unlikely to matter it saves on after outer you know that uh... right now that it's a shame the editions and as together absorb about two-thirds of the excess carbon dioxide human activities put out we're still putting out far more than actual processes campaigns weapons national park in sight you know i this is somewhat related to the story but obviously you know i different countries are thinking of different policies that can help out more carbon emissions and a emissions and the one thing that i've read that it's not really fascinating animals you've seen this but not being in china in an today she actually there they're trying to and things like barbecues because they think that that would solve at least part of the problem now of course china uses uh... more coal c_n_n_ our country's combined so that's that's press what's the big issue there anyway most of the from barbecues probably what most of them barbecues he has no there is a little bit of scientific there is a bad component science that does point out that wood-burning and other types of inefficient and fossil fuel burning including and forces while biol yet it doesn't burn fat efficiently so you get him so that's that's the black carbon at you know you find in your pollution and if we could just pass laws that help people in poorer countries say get a solar oven or another kind of heating events they don't have to use it carey works for me throw well okay you know maybe if they could have electricity first that might help but i think about you know there are studies that show that if we can cut out this black carbon and that would actually take care about a third of the immediate near-term arming that we're looking at friday accelerate it would be back that's incredible i don't know time when you hear a secretary former secretary of state hillary clinton talking about the separatist outside the cook stoves program that united nations started it's really important because it actually is not just a short term health issue for women who have to cut these interior inside where they have the smoke in the seven pollution from now but it's also a long-term and near-term climate you learn something when you bring scientists other than malignancy political scientist nobody understands life you don't agree higher than i thought he was having a bit also so far but if it is interesting about its obviously breaking or at least interesting that this vegetation is is popping up in the north abilities that because it's it's coming up because of private enterprise and my accident definite as well it says however researchers say play growth in europe in the north may not continue on its kerja victory the ramifications of an amplified greenhouse effect such as frequent forest fires over to present the stations in summertime drugs may slow progress yes uh... cn she does not plan to have a good luck with that if you haven't some heavy rain phil enjoy welfare
