Seriously. Deep. Shit. So, we’re [...]
With this issue, SKI concludes its 1964-65 winter publishing season, but we hope that our readers will not bring their ski activities to an abrupt end. Some of the best skiing blessed by long sunlit hours comes in March and April and on, in places, to May, June and July. In fact, in a world made smaller by jet aircraft, skiing never ends. To prove the point, Mt. Tom, Massachusetts, instructor Jules Eberhard travelled last summer (northern hemisphere summer, that is) to Australia, whence he sent this picture showing that the chairlift maintenance crew at The Chalet in New South Wales was having an unusually easy time of adjusting sheaves on the towers. The reason: snow, piled up in depths of 38 feet, buried chairs and reached almost to the top of the towers. By the end of July, so much snow had fallen in the winter land of kangaroos and koala bear that hotels has disappeared up to the third floor.
OMG! Lake Eyre is filling up! EVERYTHING WILL BE OK!

Global warming and climate change are looking worse and worse. Super bad.
Drove inland yesterday for an hour and a half. Took this pic city crossing a river out towards our destination.
It was the same as driving from the city down St Kilda Rd for 15 mind then turning around and coming back (in terms of population density). Non stop high rise apartments and factories.
And the air quality is absolutely shocking as you can see, it gets worse the further inland you go.
Good bye Australian snow season. Australia could stop consuming electricity all together and it be like walking down to the ocean and trying to empty it with a bucket (not that’s any reason not to try – you have to lead).
Professor Barry Brook over at has a couple of great posts (and simple and easy to understand) on why a temperature rise of 2-6 deg C will be not-so-good for us all.
News of Switzerland and Italy changing their borders due to melting glaciers. Scientists are shocked over the rate of Siberian permafrost melt.
