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
