LESS & LESS about MORE & MORE - an understanding of the ramifications of HOMO SAPIENS' actions on the natural processes of climate change - the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change has just delivered it's 4th Report & in so doing has - as reported in The New York Times today - declared Global Warming to be 'Unequivocal'
I can only imagine that Colin Mason will be somewhat pleased by this - but equally bemused by the REAL lack of progress on this front since the IPCC panel published their 1st Report in 1988
- in consideration of last year's update of his 2030 Spike.
Sir David Attenborough: The Truth About Climate Change
beauty of LIFE on Earth for several decades now - certainly since his BBC active-play videodisc on
Birds of the British Isles was used for the launch of the first PAL TV format Interactive Video System -
but his recent programmes about Volcanoes, Earthquakes & Climate Change reflect his absolute humility in recognising HOMO SAPIENS' role in accelerating the natural process of climate change and his own understanding of the need for the global community to act NOW to promote a more qualitative evolution of LIFE on Earth -
by I might add just adding water.
The ZEN like experience - of the mind-set switch which enables the moment one realises ONE SELF as infinite - and allows one's "cage" to disappear & ONE to open ONE's wings in the blue sky and disappear - leads to a freedom from oneself - and is only possible through meditation .... or a "conveyor belt" mechanism.
This ultimate freedom is a rebellion against the MIND - ALL religions, philosophies and concepts are part of the MIND - and for ONE who has conquered the MIND the MIND becomes the best of friends.
As individual parts of the WHOLE we could then consider a NEW collective paradigm - in the context of HOMO SAPIENS being TRULY comprised of - individuals, families of individuals, nations of families and a family of nations.
In the context of LESS & LESS about MORE & MORE - the individual parts' access to knowledge and thereby access to the power of knowledge - has been reduced to ONE thing - the Universal Resource Locator (URL). Anyone of the 6.5 billion on Earth that have the opportunity to use a URL or indeed any collective of the individual parts - can therefore avail themselves of the opportunity to change the world through the conduit @ZAADZ - ONE HYPERLINK AT A TIME - as C4Chaos has so succinctly stated.

World leaders reach climate change agreement -
Political leaders from around the world today reached a new agreement on climate change in what is being seen as a significant shift towards greater action
Leaders from 20 countries, crucially including China and the US, signed a resolution that paves the way for a replacement to the Kyoto protocol, set to expire in 2012.
Bravo !
and particularly bravo since reading this report in the same newspaper - with its graphic evidence of glacier melt in the Peruvian Andes
Prospect asked 100 writers and thinkers - to answer the following question:
Left and right defined the 20th century. What's next?
The pessimism of their responses is striking: almost nobody expects the world to get better in the coming decades, and many think it will get worse
Europe looks forward to 2020 - 21-MAR-2007
As the architect of EU proposals on fighting climate change and measures to set tough binding limits and reductions for CO2 emissions, the Commission President's intervention is a particular setback for ideas given high-profile personal backing by the Environment Secretary, David Miliband, and the Conservative leader, David Cameron.
The ego cannot see God.
Why? Because God, or whatever name we want to use for the absolute principle, has no beginning and no end. The very nature of ego is limited—it represents a false boundary around the self-sense. And that illusory sense of limitation can never perceive that which is beginningless and endless. So that is why, in order to know God, we have to transcend the ego. We have to remove all boundaries from the self-sense, through the conscious cultivation of an infinite, unlimited perspective or context for our own human experience. Then we will be able to perceive God, because our own perspective will become one with the limitless nature of that absolute principle itself.
Andrew CohenGlaciers suffer record shrinkage … the rate at which some of the world's glaciers are melting has more than doubled, data from the United Nations Environment Programme has shown.
Though scientists tend to agree that summer ice at the North Pole will
eventually disappear, they haven’t settled on a date.
And one group now claims to have evidence that Santa may have to start swimming much sooner than we thought !
I’d like to think I’ve tried to live as much in the moment as I can. In terms of the environment, we’re pretty good as a nation on that front. But the key will be getting politicians to take it seriously.
I think they should take greater interest in rural issues because we do still depend on nature for our lives. They could learn something from some Canadian Indians I’ve worked with - when they make a decision they consider the ramifications for seven generations to come.
I THINK THAT WOULD BE VERY WISE.

The only way we can have any real impact on climate change is to look not just at the emissions that stem from the manufacturing process, but to examine the total carbon footprint from cradle to grave of what we produce.
Motorway-sized troughs under the ocean in Antarctica carved by glaciers thousands of years ago could show how climate change will affect sea level rises in the future, according to scientists.
