11:18 The nations raged, but thy wrath came, and the time for the dead to be judged, for rewarding thy servants, the prophets and saints, and those who fear thy name, both small and great, and for destroying the destroyers of the earth." 11:18 And the nations were angry, and thy wrath is come, and the time of the dead, that they should be judged, and that thou shouldest give reward unto thy servants the prophets, and to the saints, and them that fear thy name, small and great; and shouldest destroy them which destroy the earth.
8:8 The second angel blew his trumpet, and something like a great mountain, burning with fire, was thrown into the sea; 8:9 and a third of the sea became blood, a third of the living creatures in the sea died, and a third of the ships were destroyed. 8:10 The third angel blew his trumpet, and a great star fell from heaven, blazing like a torch, and it fell on a third of the rivers and on the fountains of water. 8:11 The name of the star is Wormwood. A third of the waters became wormwood, and many men died of the water, because it was made bitter. http://www.blinkx.com/burl.php?id=17277087
The glaciers of Greenland are melting into the Atlantic at a rate that has almost doubled in the past five years. Research by Nasa suggests the ice sheet could disappear much sooner than predicted..
12:12 Rejoice then, O heaven and you that dwell therein! But woe to you, O earth and sea, for the devil has come down to you in great wrath, because he knows that his time is short!"
The ocean and its inhabitants will be irreversibly affected by the impacts of global warming and climate change. Scientists say that global warming, by increasing sea water temperatures, will raise sea levels and change ocean currents.The water in our world's oceans is always moving – pulled by tides, blown by waves, and slowly circulating around the globe by the force of the Great Ocean Conveyor Belt (also called thermohaline circulation). The Conveyor is powered by differences is water temperature and salinity, and one of its most well known parts, the Gulf Stream, is what gives Europe it's relatively mild climate.
Aside from keeping Europe warm, and playing an important role in the global climate, the Conveyor provides an up welling of bottom ocean nutrients, and increases the oceanic absorption of carbon dioxide.In short, dilution of the ocean's salinity - from melting Arctic ice (such as the Greenland ice sheet) and/or increased precipitation - could switch off, slow down or divert the Conveyor. This dramatic cooling would mean a massive disruption to European agriculture and climate, and impact other sea currents and temperatures around the globe.
16:3 The second angel poured his bowl into the sea, and it became like the blood of a dead man, and every living thing died that was in the sea.
Habitat Loss
Temperature rises are impacting on the entire marine food web. For example, phytoplankton, which feeds small crustaceans including krill, grow under sea ice. A reduction in sea ice implies a reduction in krill - and krill feeds many whale species, including the great whales.
Whales and dolphins strand themselves in high temperatures. The great whales also risk losing their feeding grounds, in the Southern Ocean around Antarctica, because of the melting and collapse of ice shelves.
Whole species of marine animals and fish are directly at risk due to the temperature rise - they simply cannot survive in warmer waters. Some penguin populations, for example, have decreased by 33 percent in parts of Antarctica, because of habitat decline. in short every thing in the oceans will die.
21:1 Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth; for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and the sea was no more. The Earth's oceans will disappear due to increased temperatures from a maturing sun, but Earth's problems may begin much sooner then expected because of falling levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Prior to the advent of the industrial age, the concentration of CO2 in the atmosphere was about 280 ppm (parts per million)Today it's over 360 ppm. That's an increase of about 30% in less than 300 years. For the earth, this is an unprecedented rate of change, about 10,000 years worth of change compressed into 100 years. And there is more CO2 in our air now than at any time since humans evolved, more than anytime over the last million years! The earth is used to slow changes, not fast ones. Slow changes allow the biosphere and earth's species time to adjust. Quick change may cause biological chaos and disrupt agricultural production.
Carbon dioxide is critical to controlling the earth's heat balance because it absorbs infrared radiation (IR), basically heat. Coming to earth from the sun, visible radiation passes through the clear atmosphere and hits the earth.A portion of it is absorbed and re-radiated back to space as IR. CO2 traps this IR and reflects it back to the earth's surface, causing further warming. This is called the greenhouse effect. Without it, water would freeze on earth. With too much greenhouse effect, water would boil off, leaving the surface of earth a desert. This may have been what happened on earth's neighbor, Venus. There is a delicate balance between sunlight, CO2 concentration, and heat that we must be careful not to disrupt.Global sea level rise is caused by two factors. One is the delivery of water to the ocean as land ice melts, such as mountain glaciers and polar icecaps. Current evidence of global warming includes the widespread retreat of glaciers on 5 continents. The second factor is the thermal expansion of water within the oceans. As the temperature of the waters in the oceans rises and the seas become less dense, they will spread, occupying more surface area on the planet. Increased temperature will accelerate the rate of sea level rise. The 10 warmest years on record have been since 1983 and the 7 warmest years on record have been since 1990. If business continues as usual, our current rate of fossil fuel consumption indicates that the carbon dioxide content of the air will double by 2100. AND THE ABOVE WILL WILL CAUSE THIS AFFECT 8:7 The first angel blew his trumpet, and there followed hail and fire, mixed with blood, which fell on the earth; and a third of the earth was burnt up, and a third of the trees were burnt up, and all green grass was burnt up.
