Before coming to the US, I knew there were many cool things around
me related to American culture. To my surprise, what really called my
attention when I got here was the fact that they greet everybody and
look at people in the eyes when talking to them. I didn’t use to greet
strangers at first because it was unusual in China. Now I always
greet people with a big smile on my face.

PÁGINA 91 Environment – Study Finds More of Earth Is Hotter and
Says Global Warming Is at Work
The percentage of the earth’s land surface covered by extreme heat in the
summer has soared in recent decades, from less than 1 percent in the years
before 1980 to as much as 13 percent in recent years, according to a new
scientific paper.
The change is so drastic, the paper says, that scientists can claim with near
certainty that events like the Texas heat wave last year, the Russian heat wave of
2010 and the European heat wave of 2003 would not have happened without the
planetary warming caused by the human release of greenhouse gases.
Those claims, which go beyond the established scientific consensus about
the role of climate change in causing weather extremes, were advanced by
James E. Hansen, a prominent NASA climate scientist, and two co-authors in a
scientific paper published online on Monday in the Proceedings of the National
Academy of Sciences.
PÁGINA 91 Meio ambiente– Estudo descobre que uma parte mais
extensa da terra está mais quente e diz que o
aquecimento global continua em atividade.
ROBERT REPETTO
Boulder, Colo., Aug. 7,
2012
The writer is the author of “America’s
Climate Problem: The Way Forward.”
O artigo de Hansen mostra que essas frequências mudaram
substancialmente, tanto globalmente como em todo o Hemisfério
Norte. Dias cada vez mais quentes tornaram-se mais frequentes;
dias muito frios menos frequentes. O artigo mostra que há mais do
que uma “percepção” de que a mudança climática está ocorrendo.
Os dados mostram que a mudança é real e substancial.
As repetições desse evento tem se modificado dramaticamente
ao longo da metade do último século, especialmente no que diz
respeito aos eventos climáticos mais extremos. A implicação disso
é que cada vez mais o clima mais definido está ficando escasso, a
menos que as emissões de gases de efeito estufa sejam
rapidamente controladas.
