Woo hoo! Time to get serious about boating.
Finished my 'add-on shed' project yesterday, the rain finally seems to be letting up and the water finally tops 50 deg F. Can't ask for much better than that! http://www.ndbc.noaa.gov/station_page.php?station=44258 |

Even the Japanese beetles were sleeping in the shade. |

Now they can stop dancing around "climate change" and call it "global warming" again ![]() |

Now they can stop dancing around "climate change" and call it "global warming" again ![]() The global climate phenomenon doesn't track the local weather in any one region or even on any specific continent. The changes that are occuring only amount to a few degrees in the annualized average temperature on the planet, and there are even years when the temperatures drop a little. The trend, particularly since 1950, has definitely been going up faster and to higher numbers than at any time in history- at least according to the very best "climate proxy" science in which climates are researched by studying tree rings, ice cores, soil bores, etc. Up until a few years ago, nay-sayers could point out that science supportss an observation that carbon levels in the atmosphere had risen to present levels 3-4 times over the last million years or so. According to the latest measurements, we're now into previously unheard of carbon levels and climbing almost straight uup. A pretty good source for legitimate and objective climate science: http://www.realclimate.org/ .....although much of the material is pretty technical and will need to be read slowly and thougtfully by most of us. Delving into the actual science makes it very easy understand how the average person would rather listen to a highly slanted and distilled sound byte that includes a disparaging reference either to "liberal socialist Al Gore" or "greedy Republican industrialists". :-) |

In particular the ones about mean global temperature. Interesting site. |
