不想見藍天 ... Don't want to see a blue sky!

(English at the bottom)
以往樂見藍天碧海、晴空萬里、優雅雲絮,
但近期越來越不喜歡望見藍天!只會『唉!』
雖未至於萬里無雲,卻陽光天天猛烈。
這個五月破了多項本地天氣觀測記錄,
相信沒有人會樂見如此情況,
除了冷氣生產商和銷售商、雪糕店、飲品店……

沒有雲,何來雨?
就算有雲,都是形態優雅的高空雲絮,下不了雨來!
這年雨量比平時少很多,破了55年的本地記錄。
誰建議可以填平船灣淡水湖來建屋?

從未試過如此對藍天生厭!
起碼,若有雲,也可以擋擋烈日降温嘛!

美國「倒水」(水災)、香港缺水(旱災)。
人可以做些甚麼去改變天氣?

今天早上雖樂見有雲擋烈日,但竟見網狀雲!
資料指這種雲秋冬較常見;
但夏季看見,代表甚麼?
可惜這種雲不下雨。



專家說七月的高空反氣旋提早兩個月 - 五月就到了,
這是全球暖化、氣候反常的現象!早前有國家元首曾說:
『全球暖化只是科學家嚇人的』;
但面對每天烈日兼55年一遇的大旱、破記錄的高温,
究竟全球暖化是否只是科學家嚇人之說?
曝曬下殘喘的樹木
天氣熱和旱,不止影響人類,
更影響動植物與昆蟲等自然生態。
沒有人灌溉的樹木,早已樹冠稀疏、不斷落葉保命,久延殘喘。

日前見一麻雀烈日下在行人路上,
良久徘徊,不斷尋尋覓覓,
似在路面覓食,狀甚可憐;
我心想,路面有甚麼可醫肚?
那麼長時間,難道它不怕曬、不怕渴?
為甚麼不是在野外或樹林覓食?
平時有人靠近即飛走的麻雀,
今竟然不顧安全,為了甚麼?
令我記起一句聖經金句:
『你們看那天上的飛鳥,也不種,也不收,也不積蓄在倉裏,你們的天父尚且養活它;你們不比飛鳥貴重得多麼?』(馬太福音6 章26節)
我不禁為它禱告,希望上天眷顧它,......


Don't want to see a blue sky!

Why? Because the weather has been very hot for over 300 consecutive hours already, 
which has broken the weather record in Hong Kong.
It is also the driest year since 1963 when Hong Kong suffered a severe drought.
In the past, I liked to see the blue sky, but now this implies heat and drought!
This morning, I saw net-like clouds which were described as common in autumn and winter. 
So what does this phenomenon implies?
The unusual severe heat and drought are signs of global warming.
A country's president said that global warming was only a threat proposed by the scientists.
Was this a reasonable accusation?

What could human beings do to change the weather?
Not only human beings are affected by heat and drought, 
but also plants and animals.
I saw a birdie on the barren pavement days ago,
hanging around under the severe sunshine.
It seemed to be looking for food.
But I thought, what could there be on this barren ground for it to fill its stomach?
I couldn't help praying for it for the care from God.
As the Bible said, 
"Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they?... " (Matthew 6:26)
