A map of how California will be affected by climate change in the future was unveiled yesterday by state governor Arnold Schwarzenegger.

The map, which demonstrates the devastating effects of global warming in just a century, shows how San Francisco Airport would be completely underwater if sea levels were to rise by 150cm (60in).

Well, whatever the case the fish is not supposed to be there! Attributed to global warming? I can not say for sure. Whales and dolphins beach themselves. Sometimes in places they do not belong. Some say the echo location/bearing mechanism distorts their sense of direction. Another phenominon yet to be explained fully from what I understand.

If it were a sunfish belonging to a species living in the Atlantic, it could have been that the pair trapped itself when travelling into the Skagerrak and Kattegat. We have seen rare events of other big fishes and wahles not belonging to the Baltic. But if the sunfishes belonged indeed, as they claim, to a species living in tropical waters only, then this means "warm" waters, and then you have top explain why they swam thousands of kilomters through waters that were "too cold" for them.

The stranding of whales and dolphins does not compare to this, it usually is not attributed to warming temperatures in the ocean, but due to underwater sound pollution, shallow beaches, virusses, and the leading animal having become insane and the others following their leader, the thepries are many with sound pollution being the most prominent one. We do not know for sure, but the indications for sound pollution seem to be the strongest by far. That means not only sonar, but for the most it means propellers and engines. Sonar seem to be a problem not in polluting the envrinonment constantly, but by hurting and doing physical damage to the animals' brain, sonar apparatus, and other tissues.

Well, it does make for interesting conversation. Just on my own shores the pelican has been showing up. As a kid I would summer in Ocean City Maryland. Never remember seeing pelicans. Last few years the pelican has been seen by me. The pelican normally does not fly up this far from the southern east coast regions where it stays warm year around. In fact, the first wild pelican I witnessed I was in Clear Water FL back in 1978. Of course I was a kid back then and probably did not take much notice of this bird but it seems to me the pelican is migrating north.

Haha, the weather guys were right. We now have snow in Gulf Coast Texas, in very early December. Third time in 5 years.

Believe whatever they tells ya, that's fine, but you need to call it something else, "global warming" is dead.

Climate change is catch word of the day.

And it is +5 C in Estonia in early December. Looking at one area and making claims about global climate is a bit dim.

Well it better describes what is going on, but most issues like this get striped down to catchprases that do not actually represent the problem at hand.

Ive seen pelicans as far north as Maine many years ago.

Point is, stop call it global warming. Is it really warming or cooling? Are we just experiencing climate change and nothing more? I'm thinking the scientific community is befuddled. BTW seems you are just looking at +5 in Estonia.

Is that odd to you? As a kid I do not remember seeing them off the coast of MD. The past few years I have. Now when I mean kid that was over 25 years ago or more.
