Thanks to new kind of El Nino – El Nino years typically result in fewer hurricanes forming in the Atlantic Ocean. But a new study suggests that the form of El Nino may be changing potentially causing not only a greater number of hurricanes than in average years, but also a greater chance of hurricanes making landfall.

That’s because this new type of El Nimo, known as El Nino Modoki (from the Japanese meaning “similar, but different”), forms in the Central Pacific, rather than the Eastern Pacific as the typical El Nino event does. Warming in the Central Pacific is associated with a higher storm frequency and a greater potential for making landfall along the Gulf coast and the coast of Central America.

In his new Journal, Whitley draws from such seemingly disparate sources as crop circles in England, the Bible and letters from experiencers who wrote about seeing the Visitors along with dead friends and relatives in order to weave together an extraordinary philosophy for facing the future.

Everyone’s talking about biofuel for cars, but what about using it for jet planes? The seeds of a weed could cut jet fuel’s carbon emissions by 84%.

Engineer David Shonnard analyzed the carbon dioxide emissions of jet fuel made from camelina oil and says, “Camelina jet fuel exhibits one of the largest greenhouse gas emission reductions of any agricultural feedstock-derived biofuel I’ve ever seen.”

Camelina sativa originated in Europe and is a member of the mustard family, along with broccoli, cabbage and canola, and it thrives in the semi-arid conditions. “Unlike ethanol made from corn, it won’t compete with food crops,” says Shonnard. “It is almost an exact replacement for fossil fuel.”

But it’s affecting tomatoes this time – Almost everyone in the US has some Irish blood, because due to the potato famine in the 19th century, thousands of Irish immigrated here. When Anne Strieber analyzed the hundreds of thousands of letters from experiencers that she read, she found that a large proportion of writers had Irish surnames. Now the potato blight has reached our shores and is affecting tomato plants.
