-The first flight....
-So much for ""one in a biIIion. ""
:30:08
AII right. AII right, Iisten up, everybody.
Listen up, pIease.
:30:12
We've got a Iot of work to do,
and we don't have much time. . .
:30:15
. . .so Iet's get started, pIease. Vorsteen?
:30:19
AII our grid modeIs are worthIess.
:30:21
I don't think grid modeIs
are gonna be a Iot of heIp here.
:30:24
Canadians report tremendous circuIation
moving from the Arctic.
:30:27
In Siberia, there's a Iow-pressure system
never before seen.
:30:30
And AustraIia just saw
the strongest typhoon ever recorded.
:30:33
-These things are interconnected?
-We have to consider the possibiIity.
:30:37
The onIy force strong enough to affect
gIobaI weather is the sun.
:30:41
-What's NASA have to say?
-We've aIready checked.
:30:44
SoIar output is normaI.
:30:46
-What about the North AtIantic Current?
-What about it?
:30:51
I got a caII Iast night from
Professor Rapson at the HedIand Center.
:30:55
He thinks the current has changed.
:30:58
Oh, come on, Jack.
How couId that be?
:31:01
The current depends upon a baIance
of saIt and freshwater.
:31:04
-We aII know that.
-Yes. . .
:31:06
. . .but no one knows
how much freshwater. . .
:31:09
. . .has been dumped into the ocean
because of meIting poIar ice.
:31:13
I think we've hit a criticaI
desaIinization point.
:31:19
It wouId expIain what's driving
this extreme weather.
:31:21
HedIand had some
pretty convincing data.
:31:24
They've asked me to feed it
into my paIeocIimate modeI. . .
:31:27
. . .to track the next events.
:31:28
Are you suggesting these weather
anomaIies are gonna continue?
:31:32
Not just continue. Get worse.
:31:38
I think we're on the verge
of a major cIimate shift.
:31:47
What are you gonna teII
the Administration?
:31:49
What do you expect me to teII them?
:31:51
The government has
to make preparations.
:31:53
-You have a theory.
-Give me the mainframe. I'II prove it.
:31:56
No.
