The shelter provided by these two mountainous ridges has produced a " micro climate " which provides relatively mild temperatures for the region and, coupled with the fertile glacial sedimentary soils on the valley floor, the region is conducive to growing vegetable and fruit crops.

In 2007, she wrote that she did not want to belittle the issue but was sceptical of the claims that specific actions would prevent catastrophe, then in 2008 that her doubts had been “ crystalised ” by Nigel Lawson's book An Appeal to Reason, before stating in 2009 that " There is no climate change, hasn ’ t anybody looked out of their window recently?

The region is noted for its mild rainy climate and beautiful scenery.

Attribution of recent climate change is the effort to scientifically ascertain mechanisms responsible for recent changes observed in the Earth's climate.

Attribution of recent climate change to human activities is based on multiple lines of evidence:

The puzzling phenomenon of two individuals being exposed to the same evidence and being able to reach different conclusions, has been frequently explained ( particularly by Daniel Kahneman ) by reference to a ' bounded rationality ' - that is most judgments are made by fast acting heuristics ( system 1 ) that work well in every day situations, but are not amenable to decision making about complex subjects such as climate change.

It is in the Negev Desert, therefore it has a desert climate with low humidity for most of the year and little precipitation.

The most important of these is climate.

These doctrines remain relevant, and most recently have been used by plaintiffs seeking to impose liability for the consequences of global climate change.

Reanalysis provides a most comprehensive and accurate four-dimensional picture of our atmosphere and effectively allows monitoring of the variability and change of global climate, thereby contributing also to the understanding and attribution of climate change.

An early recorded mention of the term " El Niño " to refer to climate occurs in 1892, when Captain Camilo Carrillo told the Geographical society congress in Lima that Peruvian sailors named the warm northerly current " El Niño " because it was most noticeable around Christmas.

In his most recent book, " The Vanishing Face of Gaia ", he rejects scientific modelling that disagrees with the scientific findings that sea levels are rising faster, and Arctic ice is melting faster, than the models predict and he suggests that we may already be beyond the tipping point of terrestrial climate into a permanently hot state.
