World Only Have Several Years Left?? Timer at Manhattan's Digital Clock


               Worry not, as its not showing time remaining before doomsday. However it is something equivalently disastrous, as it shows the deadline before our carbon emission, or global warming, become totally irreversible.

               It was the work of two artist, Gan Golan and Andrew Boyd to wake the sense of urgency within communities of how dire our current world's state truly is. They make a movement called "Climate Clock" in global level. The same clock or timer was or will be installed in various place like Berlin or Paris. Public can also access their web for further information and also install the Climate Clock application at that. Check Climate Clock.

              While at that, based on the clock we only left with approximately 7 years before the global warming dooms us all, and to be honest that is not really much of time. So we really should start to take these global warming issue in far more serious manner, at least before it become too late.

Flood in Kuantan, Pahang 28/11/2020

 Last weekend (when this post is being made) there is a flood happening in Kuantan, Pahang Malaysia. The flood only happened at certain areas in the Kuantan city (at the Darul Makmur Stadium) and not entirely the whole Kuantan sink into the water. The video above shows that few cars are stuck in the flood. The cause of the flood is unknown but maybe because of the non-stop rain for a few days straight. Luckily there's no report or any fatality during this event. It is advised so that people are being careful when driving and only go out if needed especially during this pandemic.

Main causes are the greenhouse effect gasses in the atmosphere such as water vapour, CO2, nitrous oxide, methane and chlorofluorocarbon let sunlight into the earth atmosphere but keep the heat from escaping like glass wall of the greenhouse. This will increase the earth temperature at an alarming rate. Climate change has consequences for our oceans, weather, food sources and health.




South Africa is facing one of the worst droughts to hit the region in 30 years. Many small farmers are expected to go out of business as food production and prices increase, especially in the Free State province. 


Hurricanes 101 | National Geographic

The intensity, frequency and duration of North Atlantic hurricanes, as well as the frequency of the strongest (Category 4 and 5) hurricanes, have all increased since the early 1980s. The relative contributions of human and natural causes to these increases are still uncertain. Hurricane-associated storm intensity and rainfall rates are projected to increase as the climate continues to warm. 




With record wildfires and hurricanes ravaging the United States, the effects of extreme weather events made worse by climate change are becoming more visible, and costly, to more and more Americans.
