The sun is STRONG from sun-up to sun-down. Our Ozone shield has greatly deteriorated.
We must be protected at all times and drink plenty of water, take Vitamin C to protect from cancer,
and take Kelp ( iodine tablets ) to protect from radiation; Also Vitamin E.

quotes for Joseph Farah et all :
Moreover the light of the moon shall be as the light of the sun,
and the light of the sun shall be * sevenfold * , as the light of seven days,
in the day that the LORD bindeth up the breach of His people,
and healeth the stroke of their wound."
Isaiah 30:26

"there is nothing hidden from the heat thereof "
Psalm 19: 5, 6

Praying for protection from the sun :
"The LORD is thy Keeper; The LORD is thy shade upon thy right hand.
The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night."
Psalm 121 :5, 6

For, behold, the day cometh, that shall burn as an oven;
and all the proud, yea, and all that do wickedly, shall be stubble:
and the day that cometh shall burn them up, saith the Lord of hosts..."
.... Malachi 4:1 ; ..
.
"And the fourth angel poured out his vial upon the SUN;
and power was given unto him to scorch men with fire,
And men were scorched with great heat,
and blasphemed the name of God, which hath power over these plagues,
and they repented not to give Him glory."
Revelation 16: 8,9

"Disaster Years" ... Earth-changes; by Jack Kinsella -- July 16, 2005
Noted the UN's World Meteorological Organization on July 2, 2003, “New record extreme events occur every year somewhere in the globe, but in recent years the number of such extremes have been increasing.”
In addition, there has been a corresponding spike in interest (and fear) of an impending meteor strike somewhere on the earth. Literally billions of dollars have already been spent preparing for the next 'Big One' -- although the last Big One, according to secular science, hit the earth some 85,000 years ago.

Solar Flares, RADIATION and Cancer
(CME's) Coronal Mass Ejections...solar maximum

Solar Cycle 24 ( 11 years ) began Jan 6-08 .... threat to electricity -- Jan. 8, 2008
The new 11-year cycle, called Solar Cycle 24, is expected to build gradually, with the number of sunspots and solar storms reaching a maximum by 2011 or 2012, ( Ed: right about the time of Armageddon ??? ) though devastating storms can occur at any time.
During a solar storm, highly charged material ejected from the sun may head toward Earth, where it can bring down power grids, disrupt critical communications, and threaten astronauts with harmful radiation. Storms can also knock out commercial communications satellites and swamp Global Positioning System signals. Routine activities such as talking on a cell phone or getting money from an ATM machine could suddenly halt over a large part of the globe.

Solar Flares disrupt GPS -- Oct. 2, 2006 ( God is greater than technology )
Fiery discharges from the sun could disrupt Global Positioning System (GPS) receivers, according to new research
Since solar flares are somewhat unpredictable, the scientist said such disruptions could cause problems for “safety-of-line” operations, including navigating passenger jets, stabilizing oil rigs and locating mobile phone distress calls.
The researchers suggested the reason the flares cause signal loss is due to the accompanying solar radio bursts. These bursts occur over the same frequency bands at which the GPS satellites transmit, so they can cause receivers to become confused and lose their signal

EU decides not to worry about your radiation -- Sept. 8, 2005
The plenary in Strasbourg supported the health and safety directive on optical radiation as a whole on Wednesday (7 September), but MEPs voted down a proposal that the measures included in it should also cover natural source of radiation - sunlight.
Jean Lambert, UK Green coordinator of the employment committee, said "Today's vote is a blow to workers across Europe. Skin cancer is the same regardless of whether you catch it from artificial or natural radiation, so by voting to exclude natural radiation from the directive, the conservatives and liberals have tried to undermine European health and safety standards".

EU Sunlight Laws ( to protect workers) --July 13, 2005
The European Commission was supposed to work out a list of rules for employers to follow in order to protect their employees from excessive sunlight [ Ed : RADIATION ] , which could lead to skin cancer.

Industry expected that they might include scientific risk assessments and detailed action plans, which would be burdensome, mainly for small and medium sized firms."

Skin Cancer to triple --March 23, 2005
There are more than 7,300 cases of malignant melanoma - the deadliest form of skin cancer - diagnosed in the UK each year, with 1,700 deaths annually.
Rates of malignant melanoma are rising faster than any other type of cancer. http://www.itv.com/news/britain_715800.html

Record number of skin-cancer among teenagers, children -- April 28, 2005
Deadliest skin cancer ; stay in the shade; avoid the sun
There's an appropriate level of alarm here," Mancini said. "Clearly it's happening and it's deadly,
Balch said reasons for the increase are uncertain. Some doctors think it might be from depletion of the ozone layer, which protects the Earth from some of the sun's damaging ultraviolet radiation. Others attribute it to excessive sun exposure and blistering sunburns in early childhood,
Melanoma prevalence has risen in adults, too - more than doubling in the past 30 years, according to the cancer institute. And the American Cancer Society estimates that this year about 60,000 U.S. adults will be diagnosed with melanoma and that 7,700 will die from it.
But half the Italian children studied had lighter-colored lesions, and most had well-defined borders.
Also unlike adults, most children with melanoma have no family history of the disease, and they may lack other risk factors including moles present since birth, Balch said.

Major Solar Flare ---- May 16, 2005
This event registered a 9 on the K-Index, which measures the maximum deviation of the Earth's magnetic field in a given three-hour period," said Gayle Nelson, lead operations specialist at NOAA Space Environment Center.
"The scale ranges from 0 to 9, with 9 being the highest. This was a significant event."

Sunlight is 'increasing' --- May 6, 2005
More sunlight is reaching the Earth's surface than it was 15 years ago, scientists reveal today
.American researchers say there has been a four per cent rise in the amount of solar radiation reaching the planet's surface since 1990.

Sun spots reach 1,000 year high -- July 6, 2004
But the most striking feature, he says, is that looking at the past 1,150 years the Sun has never been as active as it has been during the past 60 years.

The data suggests that changing solar activity is influencing in some way the global climate causing the world to get warmer. Over the past 20 years, however, the number of sunspots has remained roughly constant, yet the average temperature of the Earth has continued to increase.
This is put down to a human-produced greenhouse effect caused by the combustion of fossil fuels. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/low/science/nature/3869753.stm

Radiation levels to increase ? --Feb 14, 2003
Previously undetected moisture and clouds between about 5 and 9 miles high (8-14 kilometers) probably have little effect on daily weather forecasts, but their omission may be corrupting our view of long-term climate. On average, cirrus clouds tend to warm the planet, as they allow sunlight to enter the atmosphere while trapping radiation emitted from the ground.

This makes it more than twice as large as any previously recorded flare, and if the accompanying particle and magnetic storm had been aimed at the Earth, the damage to some satellites and electrical networks could have been considerable," says Thomson.
Their calculations show that the flare's x-ray radiation bombarding the atmosphere was equivalent to that of 5,000 Suns, though none of it reached the Earth's surface, the researchers say.

Sun getting hotter, brighter -- July 18, 2004
A study by Swiss and German scientists suggests that increasing radiation from the sun is responsible for recent global climate changes.
Dr Sami Solanki, the director of the renowned Max Planck Institute for Solar System Research in Gottingen, Germany, who led the research, said: "The Sun has been at its strongest over the past 60 years and may now be affecting global temperatures.
Average global temperatures have increased by about 0.2 deg Celsius over the past 20 years and are widely believed to be responsible for new extremes in weather patterns.
the impact of more intense sunshine on the ozone layer and on cloud cover could be affecting the climate more than the sunlight itself.

Summer Heat will cause deadly OZONE -- May 10, 2004
Thousands of Britons may be forced to wear charcoal masks and stay indoors this summer to avoid deadly fogs of ozone that will pollute the country during heatwaves, scientists have warned.
They have discovered that last August's heatwave caused plants and trees to release waves of a chemical called isoprene, which contributes to the production of ozone in the air. Scientists now believe ozone killed up to 600 people last summer.
When plants are short of water, they produce even more.

Ozone, which is particularly dangerous for children, old people and asthmatics, is produced when strong sunlight breaks up the nitrogen oxides released by car exhausts.[ what about jets ?? ]

SCARCITY of FOOD, summer of 2003 heatwave--- September 1, 2003
Separate calculations by two leading institutions monitoring the global harvest show that the scorching weather has severely reduced European grain production, ensuring that the world will not produce enough to feed itself for the fourth year in succession, and plunging stocks to the lowest level on record. And experts predict that the damage to crops will be found to be even greater when the full cost of the heat is known.

They say that, as a result, food prices will rise worldwide, and hunger will increase in the world's poorest countries. And they warn that this is just a foretaste of what will happen as global warming takes hold.

The final tally of the summer's damage is likely to be worse still. Lester Brown, the president of Washington's authoritative Earth Policy Institute, predicts that it will cut another 20 million tons off the world harvest, making this a catastrophic year.

The fungus robs the grain of nutrients, turning the kernels into pale, pruned ghosts of their potential selves. It also produces a chemical called deoxynivalenol, or vomitoxin, that poses a health risk to both people and animals.
"They call it vomitoxin for a reason," said Erik Stromberg, professor and interim head of plant pathology at Virginia Tech

Artificial Shield to deflect the Sun - Jan. 11, 2004
Key talks involving the Government's most senior climate experts have produced proposals to site a massive shield on the edge of space that would deflect the Sun's rays and stabilise the climate.
Hundreds of thousands of tonnes of metallic 'scatterers' would be ejected into the upper atmosphere under the plans. In addition, billions of tiny barrage balloons could serve as a secondary barrier to block rays from the Earth's nearest star.
On land, giant reservoirs holding saline water could be built to offset the rise in sea levels caused by the melting of the polar ice-caps. The oceans, too, would be modified to cope with the planet's increasingly warmer weather. Massive floating cloud-making machines would be dotted across their surface while, below, large plantations of algae would be grown to absorb greenhouse gases from the atmosphere.

Extreme technological fixes include deploying tens of billions of wafer-thin metal plates less than a centimetre wide into the Earth's low orbit via space rockets. These would be specially built to allow space-bound rays to pass while at the same time absorbing a significant amount of solar energy before bouncing it back into space. They would be designed to stay in place for a century.

Similar solutions include the release of massive nets of ultra-fine metal mesh into the upper atmosphere by aircraft to prevent the Sun's rays from reaching Earth. Alternatively, millions of metallic-coated super-pressure balloons - similar in design to a children's party version, although a fraction of the size - would be filled with helium and released until they reach the stratosphere 35,000ft above the Earth. Trapped in parcels of air, they would stay up for about five years before falling to earth and being replaced.
All the methods are designed to block about 1 per cent of the Sun's rays, enough to protect at least one million square kilometres of the Earth and significantly cool the planet.

The Pentagon and climate change--March 2004
The case for angst was buttressed by a theory regarded as the most likely explanation for the abrupt changes. The eastern U.S. and northern Europe, it seems, are warmed by a huge Atlantic Ocean current that flows north from the tropics—that's why Britain, at Labrador's latitude, is relatively temperate. Pumping out warm, moist air, this
"great conveyor" current gets cooler and denser as it moves north. That causes the current to sink in the North Atlantic, where it heads south again in the ocean depths. The sinking process draws more water from the south, keeping the roughly circular current on the go.

But when the climate warms, according to the theory, fresh water from melting Arctic glaciers flows into the North Atlantic, lowering the current's salinity—and its density and tendency to sink. A warmer climate also increases rainfall and runoff into the current, further lowering its saltiness. As a result, the conveyor loses its main motive force and can rapidly collapse, turning off the huge heat pump and altering the climate over much of the Northern Hemisphere.

Pine Island glacier -- massive melt
Much higher up the course of the glacier there is evidence of a volcano that erupted through the ice about 2,000 years ago and the whole region could be volcanically active, releasing geothermal heat to melt the base of the ice and help its slide towards the sea

Antarctica & Greenland ice shelves melting rapidly -- Jan. 14, 2008
Causing sea levels to rise
Rignot said the tonnage of yearly ice loss in Antarctica is approaching that of Greenland, where ice sheets are known to be melting rapidly in some parts and where ancient glaciers have been in retreat. He said the change in Antarctica could become considerably more dramatic because the continent's western shelf, an expanse of ice and snow roughly the size of Texas, is largely below sea level and has broad and flat expanses of ice that could move quickly. Much of Greenland's ice flows through relatively narrow valleys in mountainous terrain, which slows its motion.
The new finding comes days after the head of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change said the group's next report should look at the "frightening" possibility that ice sheets in Greenland and Antarctica could melt rapidly at the same time

Rapid warming in Arctic-- October 25,2003
A NASA satellite survey of the Arctic has revealed just how rapidly the region is warming. The overall trend of rising temperature over the past 20 years is eight times higher than that recorded by ground measurements over the past century.

The satellite observations are vital because they can cover the whole Arctic, not just the regions accessible to researchers on the surface. The data also shows that summer sea ice cover is continuing its retreat.

"Climate is changing, the Arctic is changing rapidly, and it has significant effects on lower latitudes," said Mark Serreze, of the University of Colorado in Boulder, at a press conference on Thursday.

Arctic's Largest Ice Shelf Melting --Sept. 22, 2003
A large ice shelf that has jutted into the Arctic Ocean from the northernmost part of Canada for at least 3,000 years has broken up over the last two years, providing fresh evidence that the region is warming past thresholds that can produce abrupt changes, scientists said on Monday.
For thousands of years, the 150-square-mile (389-square-kilometer) region of floating ice, called the Ward Hunt Ice Shelf, had formed a cap across the mouth of the 20-mile-long (32-kilometer-long) Disraeli Fjord on Ellesmere Island, in the Canadian territory of Nunavut. In so doing, it created a rare condition in which a 140-foot-thick (43-meter) layer of fresh water accumulated atop the denser seawater in the 1,200-foot-deep fjord, forming an isolated floating freshwater ‘‘lake.’’
The Ward Hunt Ice Shelf is generally dozens of yards thick — far more massive than the 10-foot-thick slabs of floating sea ice that form a milling cap on the Arctic Ocean. The pieces could persist for many years as they start to drift in Arctic waters, the authors said.

HAILSTONES: ICE BLOCKS falling from the SKY--- Sept 27-2002
I'm not worried that a block of ice might fall on your head ... but that great blocks of ice are forming where they shouldn't exist," said Martinez-Frias, director of planetary geography at Spain's Astrobiology Center in Madrid.
"Components of the atmosphere, like ozone and water, are changing in different levels of the atmosphere...We think these signs could be evidence of climate change," he said in a telephone interview with Reuters.

An ice meteor weighing around 440 lb has been found in Brazil, Martinez-Frias said.
Other blocks have been found in Mexico and Australia.

Rev 16:21 And there fell upon men a great hail out of heaven, [every stone] about the weight of a talent [100 lbs.]

Alaskan Icebergs melting faster --July 18-2002
The whole issue of global climate change is important to everyone," said glacier expert Anthony Arendt of the University of Alaska at Fairbanks. "The whole issue of sea-level change affects people who live near the coast quite directly. Just small changes in sea level can cause very large incursions of water up along the coast and can destroy valuable property there. It can move people away from their homes."
Arendt and his colleagues used a technology called laser altimetry to measure volume changes of 67 Alaskan glaciers over four decades.
The study found that the Alaskan glaciers were thinning enough to produce a sea-level rise of about .14 millimeters per year -- melting almost twice as fast as the Greenland ice sheet, the researchers said.

4,000 mile NorthWest Passage---Aug 30-2002
The fabled route runs below Iceland and Greenland, through the Arctic archipelago in northern Canada, and along the northern coast of Alaska between the Pacific and Atlantic oceans.

An ice-free Northwest Passage would let ships traveling between Europe and Asia shave more than 4,000 miles off the route through the Panama Canal and would allow ships to avoid the occasional delays and the passage fees of the canal.

In addition, many of the largest container and tanker ships cannot fit in the 88-year-old canal, forcing shippers to use smaller vessels or to take the even longer, more treacherous route around South America's Cape Horn.

Northern Arctic melt: passage to the East AND the West ...March 5- 2002
"And that is when security headaches for the West will begin. While Canada holds the North-West Passage to be part of its national waters, and Russia views the northern sea route in a similar manner, the United States believes that they are international routes. 'It's like the Bosphorus,' said Lamb. 'It passes right through Istanbul, but it is considered to be an international route.'
The area promises to become a new confrontation zone and will have to be patrolled by surface vessels for the first time. And as New Scientist points out this week, that raises major technological problems. Modern warships rely on sonar, which does not work effectively in the Arctic, for ice complicates the way sound travels in water.

A Rise of 42 and 1/2 inches ( that's a LOT !! ) -- April 2, 2004 ..... See Jeremiah 51:42, 55 and 64
Instead of having that level storm once in 100 years, which is equivalent to a Category 3 hurricane, by 2080 it could occur once every four years, and the damage would be caused by a Category 1 hurricane," she said.

Rosenzweig heads Columbia's Climate Impacts Group, a consortium of academic centers and government agencies that completed a federal study in 2002 on the potential impact of rising sea levels on a 31-county metropolitan area. The region included New York City north to Sullivan and Duchess counties, Long Island, 14 counties in northern New Jersey and three in Connecticut.

The "Climate Change and a Global City" study, commissioned by the National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration and the National Science Foundation, projects the level of oceans and tidal estuaries worldwide — including the Atlantic Ocean and Hudson River estuary — will rise between 4 and 12 inches by 2020, with an ultimate increase of 9.5 to 42.5 inches by 2080.
The oceans' rise stems from increasing temperatures that are melting parts of the polar ice caps, and glaciers in Greenland and the Himalayas.
Sewer systems affected
These outlets are controlled by gravity and water pressure, with storm water and treated sewage flowing out during periods of low tide. If the water level is two or three feet higher, the existing system may not work without the addition of pumping stations and other expensive engineering changes, Ward said.

Among the report's predictions are warnings of drought, damage from melting snow and permafrost, public health dangers caused by extreme heat and air pollution, and the disappearance of many unique ecosystems.

Worst affected will be coral reefs, the alpine meadows of the Rockies and the low-lying barrier islands of the south-east coast, which may well be engulfed by the Atlantic. Forests are expected to experience "major species shifts". Improved crop productivity and better tree growth are listed as potential pluses

What does the Bible say about GLOBAL WARMING?


"Moreover the light of the moon shall be as the light of the sun,

in the day that the LORD bindeth up the breach of His people,
and healeth the stroke of their wound."
Isaiah 30:26

Lunar-Solar Power beams (LSP) -- Nov. 7, 2003 Dr. D. Criswell
Solar power bases will be built on the Moon that collect a small fraction of the Moon's dependable solar power and convert it into power beams that will dependably deliver lunar solar power to receivers on Earth. On Earth each power beam will be transformed into electricity and distributed, on-demand, through local electric power grids. Each terrestrial receiver can accept power directly from the Moon or indirectly, via relay satellites, when the receiver cannot view the Moon. The intensity of each power beam is restricted to 20%, or less, of the intensity of noontime sunlight. Each power beam can be safely received, for example, in an industrially zoned area.

The Lunar Solar Power (LSP) System does not require basic new technological developments. Adequate knowledge of the Moon and the essential technologies have been available since the late 1970s to design, build, and operate the LSP System
