It all started under George Bush's watch. Let's blame George for the heat wave this Summer.

Here's a question.... If 48 states are hot, why do you consider it GLOBAL?

Did you know it's snowing in Chile? Did you know that in the beginning of July, an area of Chile known as the driest place on earth received snow?

A cold wave in Chile has brought snow to the Atacama desert, a region known for being the driest place in the world. According to the national emergency centre in Chile, the area had not seen this amount of snow in close to 20 years. Some areas received up to 80cm of snow, leading to closed roads and stuck vehicles. According to local media, authorities rescued 36 people on Tuesday, whose bus had been stuck in heavy snow. The temperature in Santiago, Chile dropped to as low as -8.5C on Wednesday.

or warmer ones. global warming is also supposed to increase the number of hurricanes, tornados, and other storms, or cause them to be fewer. hotter summers, or cooler summers. more rain or less rain. more snow or less snow. in fact global warming may also cause the weather to remain the same. at least according to the man made global warming alarmists.

YOU DIDN'T LISTEN....
I blame the previous generation.

GLOBAL WARMING IS HERE!

I blame the republicans....
I am certain it is man-made global warming. In order to combat it, we need to repeal at least 50% of all federal laws regulations and etc. Otherwise, we are going to cook - one way or another.

Sarcasm is fine, understand though, there are people who post what you did, and in all honesty believe that it is global warming. Since there was no such indication that you were doing this tongue in cheek, I responded as I did.

ah yes, the new fancy silly. Global Warming causes both warming and cooling all at once and we are all going to die....

Only in the models dude... only in the models...
