EXTREME HEAT

The past weeks have been the hottest weeks that I've ever experienced in Sarawak, especially Sibu town.
I could not determine exactly what the reading has been on the thermometer, but was sure that it had been extremely hot that my head went spinning and at times I felt like vomiting, even in the shade of the office and coolness of the air-conditioners. I mean, I've never felt so drained out, burnt to the core due to the etreme heat.

Can this be the result of global warming millions of people are talking about? Are we now paying for the horrible mistakes our forefathers had committed in destroying the world due to industrial revolution, million of cubic meters of industrial smokes release in the air for 27/7 around the world, trees being cut down in unbridled manner....?

While some weather 'expert' was quoted as saying that it's because of the El-Nino phenomenon which is now bringing havoc with it, but what remains to be asked is that "How did the El-Nino weather phenomenon come about? Isn't it because of the result of man's abusive work over the land he works on?"

The weather change - changing into bad bad weather - has killed thousand of people over the years for the past ten years. I wonder what will it be like in a hundred years from now? All of us living now may not be around that time, but what will certainly remain is the weather, but one that will perhaps be worse that what we see now.

I can't even imagine how serious it will be like then, if NO ONE has ever done anything about it.
What can we do, anyway? There's alot we dan do, but alot of determination required, too.
