Climate Action NOW!
Letter to President Clinton:
President William J. Clinton
The White House
Washington, DC 20500 Dear Mr. President: I am writing to urge to you to keep your pledge to reduce U.S. greenhouse gas emissions and to reject staff suggestions that you renege on that pledge. I understand that your staff have prepared several draft proposals for the U.S. position in upcoming global warming negotiations later this year in Kyoto, Japan. None of these options commit the U.S. to reduce emissions below 1990 levels, all of them postpone action to 2010 or beyond, and all of them include a "cap-busting" provision that could make even modest reductions illusory as companies continue to increase emissions beyond 1990 levels by simply paying a fee to the U.S. Treasury. As recently as this Monday, you reiterated your support for mandatory commitments to bind the U.S. to limit greenhouse gas emissions. Yet, all of these proposals would abandon that commitment by allowing the U.S. to continue to emit greenhouse gases well above 1990 levels if costs get too high. Companies will simply sit back and pay fees to the Treasury, while the U.S. contribution to global warming continues to soar. Mr. President, I strongly urge you to reject the staff options presented to you and to insist that the U.S. make binding commitments to reduce emissions WELL below 1990 levels, to do so WELL BEFORE 2010 and to make sure that you drop any "cap-busting" escape clause that will destroy the incentives for U.S. companies to make innovations to reduce emissions.

http://www.livinghistoryfarm.org/farminginthe40s/life_30.html
The Great Plains states are known for severe winters, but the winter of 1948-49 was one of Nebraska's worst. During a warm September and October of 1948, farmers brought in an outstanding harvest of corn, wheat, and soybeans. They were having good luck. But in November, their luck ran out. Starting November 18, a blizzard roared into the state with heavy snow, sleet and winds of 50 - 70 miles per hour. Roads were blocked, schools closed, snow drifted over rooftops and livestock were stranded. Travelers filled hotels to overflowing. Trains were stuck, and telephone service was disrupted. The Weather Bureau called the storm "one of the most severe blizzards of record over much of the central and northeastern portions of the state." In the northeast part of Nebraska, Hartington and Bloomfield were hit with 24 inches of snow. Omaha and Lincoln had heavy rain and some snow, but missed the worst of the storm. After the November storm, the phone company reported that more than 5,000 wire breaks and more than 1,700 telephone poles down. Holly Miller and a couple of other men went out in the middle of the storm because people were stranded between Waco and York . "They found a little girl that was crippled in the car," he says. "And they hauled, carried her to Waco in that terrible blizzard that you could hardly get your breath in, you know."

Blizzard among billion-dollar disasters
National Climatic Data Center researchers, using information from a variety of sources, have determined that the January "Blizzard of '96" did an estimated $2 billion in damage and killed 100 people. This is a far lower economic cost than Hurricane Andrew in 1992 and the Midwest floods during the summer of 1993. But, the death toll was higher. The damage costs included both insured and uninsured loses. Costs all use the value of the dollar at the time of the event.

      Blizzards and Hailstorms
      A blizzard A hailstorm is precipitation in the form of balls or lumps of clear ice and compact snow. It is not known for sure how hailstones form and grow. We do know that they are spherical or irregularly spherical and usually vary in diameter up to 1/2 in. (1.3 cm); in rare cases hailstones having diameters up to 5 in. (12.7 cm) have been observed. Hail causes much damage and injury to crops, livestock, property, and airplanes.
      • Where: United States When: The worst winter storm in U.S. history, the Blizzard of 1888 surprised the northeastern United States with as much as five feet of snow in some areas. Two hundred boats sank and more than 400 people died due to very powerful winds and cold temperatures. Where: United States When: The blizzard of 1978 was one of the most powerful snowstorms to hit the East Coast. It crippled New York and New England for days, in many areas dumping more than three feet of snow. Where: Russia (formerly the Soviet Union) When: In Rostov, 23 people and even more cattle were killed by hailstones weighing up to 2 pounds each.

The Blizzard of 1888
The Blizzard of 1888 hit the northeastern United States with a fierce intensity that etched itself into people's memories. An unrelenting fury of heavy snows, bitter cold, and high winds pounded the region from Washington, D.C., to the Canadian border in a storm that lasted for three days in mid-March. The storm took people by surprise, and many were unprepared for the resulting isolation and destruction. Snow was measured in Connecticut between twenty and fifty inches, but high winds caused snowdrifts up to twenty feet in several areas. In one twenty-four hour period, thirty-one inches of snow fell in New Haven with forty-five inches as the total by the end of the storm. Railroad service was halted, businesses had to shut down, and citizens of the state were imprisoned in their homes while the storm raged. It took days for many to dig themselves out. Over 400 people across the east coast died in the storm, and damage was estimated at $20 million. When the storms passed, SNET, just ten years old then, got to work repairing lines and restoring telephone service. While no record has survived of the impact of disruption around the state, it was estimated that in New Haven alone over 25% of telephones were out of service.

NATURE STRIKES BACK!!
Do you ever find yourself watching the weather channel? Can you not get enough info on floods, forest fires, earthquakes, landslides, tidal waves and the whole host of other natural disasters? What is it about these disasters that so captures our attention?
Humans are powerless to prevent the destruction that the natural world can cause, and sometimes powerless to even predict it. People try though; weathermen have a job because people want to hear what Mother Nature has in store for them everyday. We plan our outdoor activities, the clothes we buy and wear, the transportation we use depending on weather conditions. People even move to a particular place -Hawaii would be my choice - because they like a certain kind of weather. But when weather and nature get wacky, what can humans do?
Kidsreads has gathered together a collection of books about wild weather and nasty natural disasters. Read on to learn more and maybe you will be better prepared during the next hurricane or blizzard! EARTHQUAKE GAMES: Earthquakes and Volcanoes Explained by Games and Experiments
