Global warming

[chancer]

I don't think anyone is saying Forget about your fellow man, or being Cold or wrong.
We are talking about Govt Rebates and Grants. Not Welfare and Social Security.
But when your tax dollar is GIVEN to people to put solar panels on their house that aint right.

I work with a guy that gets free health insurance, and free prescriptions. He has admitted that he was after the pills that he eats like candy. I have no respect for this fool, and hope he someday gives me a reason to swell his stupid mouth shut. It would totally be worth my job.

Edit: dude drives an Escalade, no kidding.

I'm totally down for free solar panels.
Please direct me to the great giver outer person!

I took a walk this morning and looked at the hills far off in the distance, and thought; Yeah, Global warming.

I don't have a pic. (I was driving) But on the way home from Church this morning I looked off in the Distant Mountains and saw snow capped hills.
Must be the Global Warming!!!

I have the same experience! I was out today and after a whole month of below freezing temperatures and 15 inches of snow in the valley, it was 36 degrees! That darn global warming.

 

[chancer]

Dang! 36° You must be sweating balls!

The only thing I'm trying to wrap my head around is, normally here in Minnesota this time of year it's 0-25 degrees Fahrenheit out, with the occasional day or two above freezing. Last week or so has been non-stop 33-45 degrees. That's not normal for us. While I am a skeptic on climate change, or at least I don't believe humans are the SOLE cause of it, I feel like this is just an anomaly.

As for alternative energy, I'm all for it, but I'd do it over time and slowly shut down older plants and relocate existing employees to have a job, like pay for them to be retrained. As for the miners in coal, we still need miners in other metals and quarry workers, long as the demand for those needs are up and they can relocate. It's a huge mess, but one that can be sorted out, with out shoving ideals down people's throats at gun point.

So is it considered global warming if it's 15* one day, 46 the next, then -18 the next morning then 28* that same afternoon with freezing rain and sunshine or is that just mother nature not wanting to get off the rag?

That's what we use to see in Minnesota a lot over the years. I'd call that normal. When we've had days like that, we'd be outside in shorts and t-shirts.

None of this a concern. Don't sweat it or you will end up like a certain Texan.

With a cold Hamm's or a Grainbelt.
