Jayanand mon ami,

I fear it's highly unlikely much will be done as long as costs and profits 
are at loggerheads within multi-national corporations and countries driving 
what will and wont be done. Regardless of tornadoes and the angry acts of 
Mother Nature I see no real end to much of the pollutions. Or weather 
chnages!

Besides isn't it reasonable to think that maybe, "just maybe?" The changing 
weather atmosphere conditions are merely the changing ways that have existed 
for eons on planet Earth? But because no one was around 1000's of years a go 
or 100 years ago tracking weather in the manner so easily done in our modern 
electronic fact gathering of today? We really have no absolute record of the 
way it was?

I'm not for one moment saying we as human masses and our manufacturing 
capabilities are not having an effect. But if we are without unequivocal 
proof that human kind is responsible ? How do we turn it around and stop it 
without decimating the world population and industrial empires whose 
products are increasingly demanded by humans? ?

Or maybe right there is part of the answer........... there are way too many 
humans living on the planet and breeding should stop for 100 years? Trust me 
that just isn't going to happen either.

But just think how many Leica's could be sold if the numbers increased? ;-) 
I just had to keep it on topic..... people and Leicas!

cheers,
ted
