This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Global warming affects every region of the planet and in essence means irregular weather. AFAIK extreme winds in Canada and extreme cold in USA were attributed to global warming.

Also FYI, the Indian planes are one of the most fertile planes on the planet, that's why its able to support so many people for 1000s of years.

Global warming might affect Indian subcontinent more than other regions (im not a scientist) but I've only read otherwise.

I live in a region of the US that now gets semi-regular polar winds most years giving us a week of -40 degree weather. It's an exillerating change of pace to brave such extreme cold, but also extremely concerning to consider what else climate change has in store in the coming decades and centuries
