Due to extremely dry conditions in California they are experiencing record breaking forest fires. There is also extreme weather in Europe and Australia.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The scientists that record data (factual info) claim that this is due to our atmospheric increase in Carbon Dioxide as well as Methane. These are two gases that have increased due to the industrial revolution.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Methane is both natural and man-made and remains more than 20 times more damaging to global warming when compared to Carbon Dioxide. Carbon Dioxide is the major molecule adding to the earth\u2019s rise in temperature and we humans are the major cause of it as we live in a highly energy-demanding society. The burning of fossil fuels like coal and oil as well as gas generate lots of these molecules.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>What we have and are continuing to experience with respect to changing weather is going to continue with greater unpredictability with each passing day as carbon dioxide levels continue to increase along with global temperatures.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The greatest threat to all of the earth\u2019s population is going to be the melting of the polar ice caps generating rising ocean levels that will flood coastal cities and create millions of refugees with no place to go to.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Respectfully submitted,<\/p>\n<p>Marty Borko<\/p>\n<p>Waverly, N.Y.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dear Editor, Residents of Tioga and Chemung of New York as well as residents of Bradford, Pa. may have noticed the recent heavy rains as&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-67474","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-letters"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.2 -
