Stop looking for excuses and stop blame others for your mistakes. Our socalled leaders are to be blamed. The politicians of Namibia, and I mean all the politicians in Namibia (including the slapgat "opposition"), are to be blame for selling us out to those that must not be named. Politicians should be the first examples in what is going to come, regardless of political party because they are all traitors of the poor and landless.

Ps.

Please sensor this post and prove the "freedom of speech" that we have in Namibia.

Mindfactory,

I actually agree with you as far as most of the politicians - especially the so-called opposition politicians - are concerned. There are some good ones, though, on either side of the house.

i think Namibians should stop worry about climate chance and see how to help the poor getting real houses and food to eat. that will help a lot.

now id the time to show to the poor, that freedom can be enjoyed by all groups. start with adoption of black babies who become orphans through aids/hiv related sicknesses. employ more aids/hiv+ people in restaurants, like the one in the park in windhoek cbd.

put your money where your mouth is.

Information posted about 6 years ago - more valid now than then.

Global warming will take the shape of extreme weather conditions. Hotter hots; colder colds; Wetter wets and extreme or non existent wind.

While this will be the action around the world people will adjust somewhat due to the moderation of seasonal changes. That is, there will be longer springs and falls and shorter, sharper summers and winters.

Through out these extremes you will see the world temperature inch up only slightly.

Polar caps will melt. This will change the current patterns of the oceans adding to the uncertainty.

In Canada. Alberta, was/is a major grain producer not because we got a lot of rain but because the rain came at the best time for crop success. This is/will change and the southern part of the province will move more towards desert conditions with intermittent flooding.

In Ontario, Canada the precipitation is changing now as with everywhere. The Boreal Forests which have made a large industry are going to disappear. Ontario is looking for alternate crops now.

This information is available in even greater detail to all countries. Some bury it in denial while others meter it out to control public opinions.
