What is happening with the snow?


As most people have noticed the snow came very late this year but also for the past years. The weather has changed drastically not just in Stockholm but also worldwide. We have also witnessed many natural catastrophes all over the world.

The first actual snowfall this year occurred 12 December, just in time for Christmas. However, it was not like this a few years ago. For every year that passes by, the snow falls in fewer amounts. A number of people enjoy the fact that there is less snow and much hotter in the summer though there are actions that most people do not think about that has effected this climate change. Everyone has contributed more or less to this global change in their own way. While we are harming the world, the level of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is increasing radically and if we do not do something about this situation, by 2050 the temperature will increase with four degrees C. Nevertheless if we do not act now, this might be one of our last endangered winters here in Stockholm.

“The era of procrastination, of half measures, of soothing and baffling expedients of delay are coming to a close. In its place, we are entering a period of consequences.”
- Winston Churchill
