Climate causing global holocaust

-

For the earth’s northern hemisphere there’s twice as much kinetic energy in the atmosphere in the winter as in the summer. The majority of the kinetic energy is in low pressure areas.

The same ratio applies to the southern hemisphere: twice as much kinetic energy in their winter as their summer.

Here’s the link between hemisphere­s: the kinetic energy in the northern hemisphere winter equals approximat­ely the kinetic energy in the southern hemisphere summer; you can reason there is four times as much kinetic energy in the southern hemisphere winter as in the northern hemisphere summer.

This is because the southern hemisphere is mostly ocean and the Antarctic ocean is circumpola­r.

Knowing that kinetic energy goes as the velocity squared (velocity times velocity), leads to the relative wind velocity, on average, in the southern hemisphere winter being twice as windy as in the northern hemisphere summer.

Further, for the northern hemisphere, the winter winds, on average, are 40 percent greater than summer winds.

The earth’s average temperatur­e has been increasing because more solar radiation is being deposited as heat in the earth’s surface as the earth’s albedo has been changed by deforestat­ion.

The earth’s increased infrared (thermal) radiation leads to increased absorption by water vapor and carbon dioxide, hence heating up the atmosphere; which leads to increased water vapor in the atmosphere, hence more heat, more kinetic energy, more wind.

Climate modificati­on is an irrational, immoral and arrogant experiment and is creating a global environmen­tal holocaust.
