WordPress is HACKING this blog!
WordPress continues to hack FIRE-EARTH & affiliated blogs at the behest of its corporate clients.
Blog Moderators condemn in the strongest terms the blatant removal and manipulation of content.
Starting January 29, 2013, Google & WordPress have restricted access to FIRE-EARTH reducing blog traffic by up to 95 percent, enabling their affiliated sites and commercial partners to hijack (and twist) the news, analysis and core ideas presented here.
Blocking information, hacking websites and twisting the facts concerning harm inflicted to Earth by humans are major crimes against nature, punishable by drought, famine, disease...
Caution
Technical information and scientific data from the US Government agencies (NASA, EPA…) are subject to variation due to political expediency.
This caution also extends to the UN organizations (e.g., FAO, WHO…).
As of August 2011, FIRE-EARTH will no longer reprint photos from NASA, due to the agency's wanton crimes against nature.

TS BARBARA intensifying on its way to southern coast of Mexico
BARBARA is forecast to reach hurricane strength before slamming Mexico’s southern coast on Wednesday, NHC said.
The storm, currently moving northeast at about 7MPH, is forecast to cross Isthmus of Tehuantepec, Mexico’s narrowest point.
The center has issued a hurricane warning from Oaxaca’s Puerto Angel to Barra de Tonala, and a tropical storm warming from Barra de Tonala to Boca de Pijijiapan in Chiapas state.
BARBARA is expected to dump up to 12 inches of rain over eastern Oaxaca through western Chiapas after making landfall, generating a storm surge of up to 5 feet above normal tide levels, NHC added.

DISASTER CALENDAR – May 29, 2013— SYMBOLIC COUNTDOWN: 1,018 Days Left
Mass die-offs resulting from human impact and the planetary response to the anthropogenic assault could occur by early 2016.
SYMBOLIC COUNTDOWN: 1,018 Days Left to ‘Worst Day’ in the brief Human History
President of Namibia has declared a national drought emergency due to significantly below-average precipitation.
An estimated 331,000 people, 14 percent of the Namibia’s population of 2.324 million, in rural communities across 13 regions have now been classified as food insecure so far this year.
An additional 448,000 people have been classified as moderately food insecure.
Those moderately food insecure could rapidly become food insecure, UN reported.
About 109,000 children under age 5 living in rural households classified severely and moderately food insecure are at risk of malnutrition due to reduced availability, access and utilization of food, compounded by limited access to safe water and improved sanitation, UN said.

Water, Sanitation and Hygiene
11 Regions across the country are without water tanks for additional storage.
About 32% of households and communities use boreholes as their main sources of water, followed by piped water (20%) and public taps in neighboring houses (19%).
As a result of the severe drought, water tables in boreholes are currently low with reduced yields.
The cost of water has risen and most households are now using their limited funds to buy food instead of water.
Only 33% of households have improved sanitation facilities.
50% of the population practice open defecation. [Source: U.N.]

Extreme Rain Events Flood San Antonio, Texas
At least two people were killed on Saturday as torrential rains in San Antonio triggered severe flooding forcing the rescue of about 240 people, officials said.
San Antonio was inundated with about 10 inches of rain Saturday, the second-wettest-day recorded, San Antonio Express-News reported.
“Saturday was not only the wettest day in May ever recorded, but with 9.87 inches of rain at the San Antonio International Airport, it was the second wettest day ever recorded in San Antonio, according to the National Weather Service. The wettest day on record is Oct. 17, 1998, when 11.26 inches of rain fell.”
NWS issued Flood Warnings for rivers affecting Bexar, Wilson and Karnes counties.

Average CO2 at Mauna Loa: Last 5 days of preliminary daily average CO2
A state of emergency has been declared in Plumas County after the magnitude 5.7 earthquake struck the area Thursday, causing damage both to infrastructure as well as homes and businesses.
“The earthquake did not injure anyone but did cause moderate damage and was felt by people as far away as the Bay Area, Reno and into Oregon,” said a report.

Virginia, USA. City of Hampton declared a state of emergency after a tornado struck Petersburg and Hampton, destroying or damaging dozens of building and causing injuries to residents.
The tornado left several families displaced and caused millions of dollars in damage.
U.K. Britain has undergone a moral decline over the past six decades, the Bishop of London has decried.
Ironically, the period coincides with Queen Elizabeth’s 60 year reign on the throne.
Promiscuity has reached “epidemic” levels. “Literally millions of children grow up without knowing a stable, loving, secure family life …,” he said.
“Dr Chartres also called for action to tackle ‘depressingly high’ youth unemployment in Britain,” said a report.
“The extent of youth unemployment is appalling. The waste of human talent is unsustainable morally and economically,” he said.
Global Climate 2011: Warmest year with La Niña, 10th warmest year, lowest Arctic sea ice volume
Average global temperatures this year so far are the 10th highest on record and are higher than all previous years with a La Niña event, which has a relative cooling effect, WMO reported.

[November 30, 2011] Mass die-offs resulting from human impact and the planetary response to the anthropogenic assault could occur by early 2016. SYMBOLIC COUNTDOWN: 1,568 Days Left to the ‘Worst Day’ in Human History
Global. World’s 13 warmest years on record have all occurred since 1997, a period of 15 years. The heating has impacted the extent of Arctic sea ice which fell to its second lowest this year, with its volume being the lowest ever recorded.
The 2002-2011 period is the warmest decade on record (jointly with 2001-2010), some 0.46°C above the long-term average.
Average global temperatures this year so far are the 10th highest on record and are higher than all previous years with a La Niña event, which has a relative cooling influence, WMO reported.
“Our role is to provide the scientific knowledge to inform action by decision makers,” said WMO Secretary-General Michel Jarraud in a press release.
“Our science is solid and it proves unequivocally that the world is warming and that this warming is due to human activities,” he added.
“Surface air temperatures were above the long-term average in 2011 over most land areas of the world. The largest departures from average were over Russia, especially in northern Russia where January-October temperatures were about 4°C above average in places,” the WMO report said.
“Concentrations of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere have reached new highs. They are very rapidly approaching levels consistent with a 2-2.4 degree Centigrade rise in average global temperatures which scientists believe could trigger far reaching and irreversible changes in our Earth, biosphere and oceans.” WMO’s Jarraud said.
