Southern Hemisphere
The vortices in this hemisphere seem to be resolving at higher latitudes. There are a couple that have made their way to WAIS.
See, it's not the ice the heat interested in, really. The heat is interested in 'homostatic/biotic' balance. In other words, the heat will resolve to the surrounding temperatures as it moves toward the Antarctic Ice. That can occur at any latitude if the heat is met with significant amount of balance of cold air. As the sun reaches it's highest latitudes in the northern hemisphere the latitudes of the southern hemisphere have the ability to resolve 'heat transfer' from the equator without necessarily impinging on Antarctica.
That is the way it used to be before Human Induced Global Warming reduced Earth's ability to cope with global heating. Now. Today. The heat cannot resolve to a biotic balance without arriving onto the ice continent and ice ocean and degrading the biotic balance there, hence, heating the oceans and putting all life at jeopardy for the sake of Western oil economies.
To me this is simply insane. It was insane five years ago, five decades ago and it still is today. Why would supposedly civilized human beings even 'risk' the very planet balance that insures them life? Why isn't there daily briefings on the 'state of the planet' coming out of the Oval Office. The entire way The West 'handles' it's environmental emergencies is simply insufficient and ludicrous.
Bush, "But, the USA cannot participate in Kyoto, it would destroy our economy."
But, it's okay to play with the science. It's okay to endanger lives with catatrophic storms, wind, floods and now lightning. It's okay to deprive the beauty of Earth to generations of people. It's okay to ask the American people to 'sacrifice' while Bush and Cheney are 'at war.' But, it not okay to make huge leaps forward into alternative energies while stopping the chronic carbon dioxide emissions daily out of the USA. It's not okay to 'sacrifice' for the cause of preserving our planet for the well being of people alive today and those to inherit this mess. It's not okay to stop insane wars that propagate terrorists.
These entire circumstances CIVILIZED people face today is simply insane. There is no other word for the ludicrous nature of the Bush administration and it's faux priorities. Insane. Certifably.
