Description
I am concerned about the effects of global warming. A few years ago I thought the global warming to be something that really could not happen in a short period of time... stupid me !!. Signs are everywhere now.. The photograph shows one of them. The Cyclamen coum usually starts flowering in March, but not this year.. In fact it started flowering on the last day of last year..!!!!!
Wikipedia tell me about global warming:
Global warming is the observed and projected increase in the average temperature of Earth's atmosphere and oceans that became apparent by the latter half of the 20th century. The Earth's average near-surface atmospheric temperature rose 0.6

I have spring blooming here also, plants that normally wait till March or so to start. It really is scary, but according to our great leaders we have NOTHING to worry about.........so START worrying!!!
Evolution occurs in all things, including weather conditions. I wonder what we would have said during the great melt-down at the conclusion of the Ice Age if we had been around then. I am not saying I do not believe in global warming but all things change. Unless we kill off 2/3rds of the world's population to reduce stress on our resources and environment, I think we have to learn to live with what we have - human nature does not allow for us to revert to "inconveniences" that might slow the progression of the current circumstances. Suggested "cures" are more idealistic than realistic. Beautiful shot of these flowers.
Beautifil flowers well captured but the message bothers me too.
Nice flowers. Do not fear climate change. It is gradual not catastrophic. There are political reasons for all the negative incorrect reports which link weather events to the effect of green house gas release. Apart from the increase in city temperatures eg Tokyo there is actually no significant recorded change over the last 100 years. The present scare is based entirely on prediction and not fact. Weather cycles are well known but very difficult to predict and the actual effects of mankind on temperature is very small. I do agree with work in progress to reduce pollution which is man made and the resulting improvement can be seen relativley quickly.
Very nice picture on this flower, and very nice color too !!! Thank you for this information :)
I really dont know what to believe, but sure this winter is mild. I have flowers in my garden too. Primula, a springtime flower. Anyway... I love your shot of this "violet of the Alps" which we call them in DK. A flower we buy for inside dekoration, but it likes a light, cool room with window to the east. :)) Usually I place it in the garden in a wet place with shadow, when it finnished to blossom. Then it starts making flowers again.
a lovely photo ! and yes a little everywhere it is the same thing ... almost spring if it continues on this way !!!
I've got no idea what to believe in these days. I just watched Al Gores "Inconvenient Truth" and it all made perfect sense to me. I'm sure we're polluting and changing the enviroment. I'm also hearing from the other camp, where they say changes are a normal part of our world. That the man made changes are insignificant compared to natural changes.
Beautiful:):):)
Interesting and worrying facts. There are roses now in the public garden just across the street. In January ! One friend just came back from Laponia and the temperature this Christmas was -8C. when the normal is -18C. Something is happenning for sure. Great report Oskar.
Fine image and thoughts oddly enough Piet and I were discussing this very thing today
Beautiful flowers... I've only seen them potted for sale, and never growing wild before, that is nice to see. Here, we see things blooming earlier too.
actually, those things are "short day" plants and they bloom here (california) at this time of year. but the global warming trend is indisputable. fortunately, the decrease in radiation from the sun will counter it.
Impressive details and colors!
THERE ARE AS MANY CONTRADICTIVE IDEAS AS THER ARE PEOPLE. ALL I KNOW IS IF YOUR POOR AND LIVE LESS THAN 10M ABOVE SEA LEVEL, YOUR FUCKED!
