Re: "A Message from Mother Nature?"

1. The article is talking about climate changing could be the sign that will lead the Earth to an END.

2. a. variation -- a different form of something
    b. trend -- the general direction of something
    c. skeptic -- people that doesn't believe in certain things someone had said
    d. torrential -- a sudden and violent action of someone or something

3. Weather is the conditions of the atmosphere over a short period of time, and Climate is how the atmosphere behaves over long periods of time.

4. a. Torrential monsoon rains in Pakistan caused the worst flooding in decades, killing more than 1,500 people and uprooting millions.

    b. In Russia, a record-breaking heat wave along with a record-breaking drought destroyed millions of acres of wheat and sparked wildfires that killed dozens.

    c. In the U.S., flooding battered New England, then Tennessee, Arkansas, and Oklahoma, while a record-breaking heat wave baked the entire eastern part of the country.

5. Extreme weather is when weather unlimited, suddenly, violently happen.

6. Perception is the understanding of something.

7. The Global Climate Change, I think, it's the changing of the climate throughout the globe, the Earth.
