Climate change models predicted ocean currents would speed up - but not this soon
Within the past two decades ocean currents have been speeding up at a fast rate because of climate change. It was predicted that ocean currents would speed up, but not this quickly. Since this was not expected, people are worried that climate change could have many other effects that we are not prepared for. Global ocean circulation has accelerated by 36 percent since the early 1990's. Our oceans have a huge impact on the planet and the different effects of climate change will change our planet for the worse. It is scary that scientists have underestimated the effects of climate change and it shows how little time we have to work on this issue. Everybody needs to understand that we are facing a huge problem and if we don't all start to act on it then there is not much hope for a good future. I hope that the future planned research goes well and scientists can learn more about the unknowns. link
Very interesting Mrs. J. I have never seen an article quite like this, as most climate change articles tend to only provide strict information relating to one bias or the other with little diversifying opinion-based anecdotes. I find it refreshing and enlightening that someone goes to further lengths than just researching a topic online. Jerry Taylor went above and beyond the average citizens' due dilligence concerning climate change and it seems as though his research prevailed for him. It was astounding to read that Taylor confidently divulged that he wished he would have dedicated more thought to his climate change stance earlier in his career. Changing is not easy, and further than that, admitting your own conscious actions is what caused you to change is even harder. Props to Jerry Taylor and his ability to dig a little deeper.
