The turning of the tide
|
|
The world's leading economies, who couldn't agree on any actual policy on climate change at the G-8 Summit in Italy last July, opted instead to command the clouds, the seas and all of the Earth to cool, with a decree “the increase in global average temperature above pre-industrial levels shall not exceed 2 degrees [Celsius]”. Doesn’t this sound a bit like the vain attempts of King Canute to stop the waves?

The Year The Moon Stands Still

Lunar standstill is the ancient name given to the time the moon reaches its maximum declination after 18.6 years. Callanish plots this slow progress, building to a crescendo in the 19th year at the lunar standstill - when the path of the moon is so low that it seems to walk along the horizon before setting within the stone circle.....

Moon on the move
|
|
Declination is when the moon changes latitudes every 13 days. Taking the equator as starting point, after 7 days the moon is over Japan, over the next 7 days the equator, 7 days later over Brisbane and 7 days later back to the equator. In just one day, the distance traveled is equivalent to Oamaru to Blenheim.

The 18.613 yr cycle

Earlier in the week Campbell Live on TV3 discussed erosion due to higher-than-normal tides on the West Coast as proof of global warming, with the fears now by the mayor and residents that the sea will keep coming in year after year unidirectionally, swallowing first the houses, then the road, the whole town, and finally the Alps. Utter bollocks. Anyone serious about rising seas this year or erosion clearly do not understand the tidal cycle. 18.6 years ago the tide heights were the same.
