Ok...90% of world's glaciers are in antartica and are doing fine, how's that for cherry picking!

Obviously, it is beyond the capabilities of climate 'scientists' to understand how sea-breezes work. The EPA should be defunded. It is no longer protecting the environment.

Probably should be ... but government inertia rarely takes a hit. Hell, there's probably still a section servicing pensions for Civil War widows. May be down to one or two old-timers.

This long, cool, WET spring has my head filled again with that idea that the sun is going dormant, that there is a real and inverse connection with the solar cycles and earths climate, whether the mechanism is understood yet or not. Anecdotal I know, and completely unscientific. Something strange is in the air, and has been... I have given up on the politics of the subject, I am just going to patiently watch the scam unravel over the next many years.

Now Mr. Walnut, you need to learn that a long, cool, wet spring wherever you are is WEATHER. Read Mr. Graywolf's posts and links about the Fram Tram, coming Super Duper El Nino and models showing warm temperatures over the Bering Sea 10 days from now to better understand CLIMATE. The difference is obvious, even to a little dog like me. If you don't learn the difference soon, off to the re-education camps you must go. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Smzq4l3qsxc

If they have good food at those re-education camps then maybe, ok...
I figure that as long as we are basing national policy on touchy-feely opinions and intuitive associations, maybe my feeling about the climate is about as valid as their feeling. I can stick my head out the window and check the weather same as anyone else.

I might head over for a check-up.

Now THIS is scary....as citated in Wikipedia. ..
In billion-year timescales, it is predicted that plant, and therefore animal, life on land will die off altogether, since by that time most of the remaining carbon in the atmosphere will be sequestered underground, and natural releases of CO2 by radioactivity-driven tectonic activity will have continued to slow down. The loss of plant life would also result in the eventual loss of oxygen. Some microbes are capable of photosynthesis at concentrations of CO2 of a few parts per million and so the last life forms would probably disappear finally due to the rising temperatures and loss of the atmosphere when the sun becomes a red giant some four-billion years from now.
