The future of Earth lies in our hands A strong statement - isn't it? What is the idea behind it? |
Severe changes have happened in many countries on Earth. We learned that
air pollution doesn't stop at border lines, that water contamination
 spreads like a grass fire.We learned that everywhere on Earth it becomes more difficult to buy healthy food, to breath in unpolluted air, to get good drinking water, to avoid sickness and to grow old! Protecting Nature is our task, and many members help us with this task! 17 years ago we started with a Nature Preserve in Texas we named Bear Springs Blossom. B+S+B members restore overgrazed properties. We have learned that overgrazing is a problem in many countries on Earth. We read old books where people described the beautiful functioning Nature around them - and we learned that many area has looked very different before the first humans settled there. So we founded the charitable International Non-profit-organization  Bear Springs Blossom Nature Conservation so other people can get information easier, more understandable, with more background. Our mission is to protect Humans! |

 Just in the last 12 months A strong earthquake killed many in Japan A strong earthquake killed many in New Zealand A huge undersea volcano appeared A strong earthquake rattled California A volcano broke out in Guatemala A volcano broke out on Iceland A strong earthquake hit Turkey A strong earthquake hit Chile A strong earthquake destroyed parts of Haiti, a country troubled by man-made deforestation and poverty. ![Earth's Nature gets more and more unbalanced. Soil and oceans are being weakened as buffers against global warming. A down ward spiral with long-term implications for the climate system.
If the seas and the land are less able to soak up or store greenhouse gases, more of these carbon emissions will enter the atmosphere, holding in even more heat from the sun. Studies show a gradual increase in atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) over the last half-century has accelerated the release of methane and nitrous oxide in the soil. These gases are respectively 25 and 300 times more effective at trapping radiation than CO2, the principal greenhouse gas by volume. This feedback to our changing atmosphere means that nature is not as efficient in slowing global warming as we previously thought.
Earlier studies examining how additional CO2 affects the capacity of different soils -- in forests, grasslands, wetlands and agricultural fields -- to either absorb or release these two gases yielded conflicting results.
More CO2 increased nitrous oxide in all soils, but soils in rice paddies and wetlands released more methane in particular.
The culprits in both cases are microscopic soil organisms that breathe in CO2 and exhale methane. The more carbon dioxide in the air, the more these single-cell greenhouse-gas factories thrive. The carbon credit that is attributed to faster plant growth driven by extra CO2 in the air must be revised, many scientists say. This credit helps to offset the negative impact of greenhouse gases - but the new data suggests it should be written down by a fifth.
By overlooking the key role of these two greenhouse gases, previous studies may have overestimated the potential of ecosystems to mitigate the greenhouse effect. There is enough evidence that global warming is eroding the ability of the ocean to soak up CO2. Earth's seas take up roughly one-third of all human carbon emissions, but how this sponge responds to rising CO2 levels is a tough question, mainly because data has been spotty geographically and didn't cover long time periods. In the North Atlantic rising air and water temperatures were slowing the pace at which carbon is absorbed across a large portion of this ocean's subtropical zones. The ocean is taking up less carbon because of the warming caused by the carbon in the atmosphere. Up to now, scientists reasoned that only when carbon content in the ocean rose faster than in the atmosphere could one say that the capacity to take in CO2 had diminished.
But the new study shows that the ocean sink can be weakened even without this visible sign. What we are going to see is that the ocean will keep its equilibration the balance between atmospheric and ocean carbon levels] but it doesn't have to take up as much carbon to do it because it's getting warmer at the same time - warmer water cannot hold as much CO2 as colder water. Earth ocean's temperatures are rising, ocean's carbon capacity decreases](http://www.keepbanderabeautiful.org/dust-storm-ii.jpg) The NEW Normal? As we have informed you for many years: Melted ice is being moved towards Earth's equator, changing the pressure patterns to Earth's continental plates. Nature fights back - we need your support to conserve Earth's Nature. Talking about melting ice: Two huge icebergs from Antarctica are floating and melting. Our studies show, that melting icebergs can change the pattern of Earth's currents resulting in totally different weather patterns on Earth. Go to our web-page to get more information on Earth's currents Changing currents would endanger more than one billion humans on Earth plus uncountable animals and plants. Our freedom and security is at stake! |
What is our solution? B+S+B collects information, we do research, we inform YOU we send you emails B+S+B sciences based information influences behavior! WHY is better information important? Better in-depth knowledge helps to preserve life on Earth and not destroy Earth and our future! A good environmental educationhelps to understand the problems Earth is facing,to deal with coming changes and challenges! |

Earth facts: Speed orbiting the sun: 66,700 mi per hour = 107,320 km/h Equatorial circumference: 24,901.45 mi = 40,066.43 km Polar circumference: 24,855.33 mi = 39,992.22 km Surface area: 197,000,000 square mi = 510,230,000 sq km Total land area: 57,900,000 sq mi = 150,100,000 sq km Water: 97% of the Earth's water is salt water 71% of Earth is covered with oceans Billions are depending on food out of Earth's oceans. If we continue to pollute Earth's oceans this food source will become scarce! 
Citizens of all countries have to work together to keep Earth beautiful!We believe that better knowledge about Earth makes it easier to save Earth. Better informed people make better decisions! Nature education is the key to save Earth!The main point is to make a significant dent in climate change - to lower the CO2 carbon dioxide level, to bring Earth temperatures back to 'normal'.We defend Earth's oceans by challenging water pollution and wasteful, destructive fishing. Work with us to secure YOUR and YOUR children's future! Show that you care: Reduce your electricity use, use renewable energy! B+S+B is using Renewable Energy for two decades! We show you how to use Renewable Energy and we explain WHY! |

Informed people can address the root causes of climate change limiting impact
and destruction of our planet - Where can we go? Without action, climate change will cause the extinction of countless species and destroy some of Earth's most precious ecosystems, putting billions of Humans at risk. Do you know how much water on Earth is drinkable? Do you know how much oxygen humans need? Do you know how much CO2 carbon dioxide is stored in Earth's oceans? Do you know how much oxygen is produced by rain forests? Do you know why burning fossil fuel changes Earth's climate? B+S+B provides science based information needed to understand our changing Earth climate! The more you know the more we can do! Emissions reductions and increases in the use of energy-efficient technologies are strongly needed. |

Recently, scientists from NASA and the National Snow and Ice Data Center described another way Arctic sea ice is changing: 1) The summer melt season is getting significantly longer. According to this analysis, 2) the average length of the continuous melt season in the Arctic increased by 6.4 days per decade between 1979 and 2007. The length of the melt season varies significantly from year to year, but the long-term trend is clear. 3) The scientists say this pattern is consistent with a climate process known as the ice-albedo feedback. Dark ocean water absorbs more sunlight than bright, reflective ice. Even a small change in the start of the melt season exposes the ocean to more incoming sunlight, which warms the water, which melts more ice, and so on. 4) The more solar energy the ocean absorbs during the summer, the longer it takes in the fall for the water to cool down enough to freeze. |
