From the 1950's to today is about 55 years give or take. That's a pretty small representative sample of the life of the planet.
The planet has been suited for mammal life for approx 2 billion of it's 4.5 billion years. So let's see--55 divided by 2 billion = .0000000275% of the life of the planet as a sample. Not very accurate I think.
I sure wish some of Florida's rain could be scattered elsewhere. We have had the rainiest, gloomiest, disgusting Summer I can remember in years.
I LOVE droughts. Mostly because I hate rain. I don't even like clouds. I have been rained on while doing errands for the passed four days. ENOUGH already!!
To humor you, just let's say the globe is heating up and man is the culprit.
The switch has been flipped, so now what you gonna do about it?
How you goning to end the drought?
Shouldn't the HCGW crowd have been telling us how to adapt. You think scattering mercury filled light bulbs is going to help?
We exist only through adaptation. So how do we adapt, cut down all the trees and put up chinese solar panels?
Pay ALgore more homage$$$ so he can spread his genes when we all disappear?
Going all the way back to 1956..WOW! if that isn't convincing!
How do you explain the iceage that swept across the globe in 12/13th century? It got warmer again didn't it?
The earth is constantly heating and cooling, nothing new here. If it gets too hot or too cold we go away if we can't adapt. Oops! there is that word again, adapt. Adapt is different that changing the weather as the HCGW crowd has admitted that there is nothing we can do at this point to change the warming.
When the sea rises again you move. There is a reason why most people don't live in deserts too. Maybe the government can put a uhaul in everybody's garage for when the time comes and save all that green money they are throwing into the garbage can? The folks who decided to stay in Greenland when the cold came probably wish they had uhauls.
Corn futures are sitting at $8.00 per bushel. This won't be good when our food is skyrocketing and the African Nations want us to deliver a couple of hundred ships of grain to feed their exploding population who cannot feed themselves.
There will be hungry/starving people if it doesn't start raining in the cornbelt. That is a fact.
30% of the corn crop in the nation is reported as being in good condition. That is not a good number.
The Earth has been warming since about the time the Industrial revolution began, after the Little Ice Age.
