Planetary Thermal Imbalance & Extreme UV Levels A possible new cause for upper atmosphere damage is from the large Fukushima krypton-85 and other radioactive releases. This is creating a Planetary Thermal Imbalance & Extreme UV Levels. Planetary Thermal Imbalance is indicated by record breaking extremes in worldwide hot and cold temperatures. The large difference between hot and cold creates extreme weather events. Despite CFC reduction in the atmosphere UV levels here can now frequently reach high to extreme levels here in spring and summer, for weeks at a time. During these events it is suggested, if possible, to stay out of the Sun, or wear good UV rated sunglasses and protective clothing when out in the Sun. If you live in the Northern Hemisphere also monitor your local UV levels. Local UV level links for each Australian monitoring station are now provided. |
