Climatic changes on the Earth can not only be gradual. Possible catastrophic shift that will require emergency, including military response.

Southern oscillation and the El-Nino is a global Oceanography atmospheric phenomenon. Being a characteristic feature of the Pacific Ocean, El Nino and La Nina are temperature fluctuations of surface waters in the tropical Eastern Pacific. The names of these phenomena, borrowed from the Spanish locals and introduced into scientific circulation in 1923 by Gilbert Thomas Walker, means "baby" and "baby", respectively. Their impact on climate of the southern hemisphere it is difficult to overestimate. Southern oscillation (atmospheric component of the phenomenon reflects the monthly or seasonal fluctuations in the air pressure difference between the island of Tahiti and Darwin in Australia.

Mohammed Musa Abdulahi woke up Saturday morning sick and lethargic. The day before he fell ill and lay down right in the school building. Abdulahi went to the house and suddenly noticed that on the streets of his village, in the North-Western Cameroon, reigns frightening silence. Roads and yards of Soboma were littered with corpses.

Even a weak volcanic eruptions can have a big impact on the global climate.

In the press have repeatedly been reports of researchers that in ancient times the Earth has a smaller size, and speed of rotation around its axis is greater, in comparison with the present time. Naturally, if you increase the size of Earth and the slowdown in the speed of its rotation, the daily time increased. The main reason for the slow speed of the material body (including Land) is increasing its diameter. A clear example of this is the reception skaters on the ice used to accelerate or slow speed of their body by bringing or removal of arms from the axis of its rotation.

The existence of healthful living and dead water is said in our ancient fairy tales. But the people, seeking to make a fairy tale come true, try to make this water in laboratory conditions by means of electrolysis. The result is acidic and alkaline water, not fabulously healing, while in use, it is called living and dead.
