Must be global warming. :) Maybe it is! We have the same thing occurring here. Never, in anybody's recollection, have there been this many buzzards. Where there used to be one or two, now there are large flocks.... Weird. I don't think any one event can have a direct link to adverse climate change. It's a pattern, mostly of high and increased variability. Global Warming isn't the correct nomenclature for what's going on. The correct term is Adverse Climate Change, which is attributed to our pollution. Maybe, but the Earth, as a whole, is warming. What's in a name? that which we call a rose By any other name would smell as sweet? ---Apologies to WS I think attribution of all "Adverse Climate Change" to "our" pollution is a fallacy... the "fossil record" clearly makes us accessories after the fact..... whether it is a warning ticket, a misdemeanor, or a felony is yet to be determined -- It is usually futile to try to talk facts and analysis to people who are enjoying a sense of moral superiority in their ignorance. -Thomas Sowell Grady-White Gulfstream, out of Oak Island, NC.

So, if one is going to try and get consensus and action, it's important to use some accuracy. The earth is warming, but the issue that's most troubling is the variations we're seeing. We've certainly dramatically increased the amount of C02 in the atmosphere in the last 100 years or so. That can't be a good thing. Who says the earth is warming, Al Gore? He should immediately be discounted for being a proven liar, and of course having his hands deep in the pockets of the Global Taxing industry... I have read many reports that state that the earth has been cooling for nearly a decade... |
