What If I Want Global Warming?

It's cold it's wet it's disgusting!
I got a cold because of it. Every damned year.
I hate winter.

They are lying about global warming. There are snowbanks everywhere and it's cold outside. We would have more snow but now the snow dips down farther into the US because of changes in the Jetstream, but I think that that is being caused by the change in how energy flows through the earth caused by fracking. Keep on Fracking, I think it is helping us here in the UP. Just as long as they don't start fracking around here. If they fracked around here, that could be dangerous for miners because the gas fumes would be traveling into the mines. Not cool at all.

It's called the equator.

Move there... problem solved!!!

I like winters, myself.

Or technically seasons.

In winter my land is dormant... I can recharge and play around with my hobbies.

In the spring the gardens go in, the orchard needs pruned, new exciting things get planted.

The summer is a time to get everything fixed that broke, improve the property and start canning.

The fall is harvest time, putting up all the goodies I have grown in the root cellar and get ready to have some time off and celebrate with friends and family another year.

I like seasons. Especially winter.

It's my time off...

Check out Minnesotans FOR Global Warming.

Living in chicago I'd be very happy with a little warming.

The one question I've never been able to get answered by warming alarmist is what the optimal temperature is for the world.

Is a carbon tax infringing on free speech? I want a warmer earth too! But they make me pay to reduce the temperature! This goes against my free speech and freedom of choice!

Maybe I should consider buying a yellow jacket?



Great topic s+f

If you want global warming, then momma say's that you're the devil.

Yeah, moving to the full blown tropics sounds like a good idea for people that hate cold weather, when you see the winter (dry season) average temperatures they get.

But there's actually a very good reason people aren't moving up there in droves... It's called Summer, or the wet season.

Just checked out Darwin's weekly forecast as we're just coming into summer and it's like 35 degrees (95 fahrenheit) every single day, with 28 degrees lows (82 fahrenheit), with endless rain and constant high humidity... It'd be an absolutely brutal climate to live in.

They have Yoopers in Minnesota, how cool.

Burn more tires.

ACK!

Sounds like some Christian version of hell to me....

Guess I won't be promoting THAT idea to anyone anymore.

Thank you for the lesson!

That is a good point. What about the vast areas of the country that can't grow about 50% of crops b/c it is too cold in that region and it won't support certain plant species. Maybe warming will allow them to grow things they couldn't before and it is supposed to happen that way.

Maybe in-land area's WANT to be on the water, so they can set up a resort, a fishing business, etc. Who are "they" to ruin this dream they have been working towards since 1600's!?

Maybe there are people who are tired of having a snow covered mountain until mid July and then have snow return on August 1st!? Maybe they want 3 or even 4 weeks w/o snow. Has anyone ever thought of that!?

In Georgia some days we hit 100 F and Humidity hovering at 100%

Winter ain't bad , until January / February

Change is always good and one season makes one look forward to the next...

I totally agree, season are one of the best things ever. I didn't enjoy the SoCal weather even though it was very nice - it's nice to have some rainy days, cold/snowy days, spring (flowers & smells!), fall (leaves changing, autumn smells, etc). I didn't notice nearly as much in SoCal.

i live in the far north of new zealand also known as the winterless north no snow ever even in winter we only get rain the odd frosty morning

Well, it seems maybe we are preventing an ice age. The earth's orbit changes around the sun over time. Currently, we are in an interglacial period. These ice ages are caused by changes in earths Orbit due to the gravitational pull of the other planets on earth. These changes have cycles, for example, there is a 100,000-year cycle that affects the eccentricity of the planet’s orbit, similar to the 405,000 years. There’s also a 41,000-year cycle where the tilt of our planet changes with respect to the plane of the orbit. And finally, there's a 21,000-year cycle because the axis of our planet wobbles and doesn’t always point in the same direction.

Now currently these cycles tell us we are heading for a major ice age interglacial periods like the one we are in now last from 10,000 to 15,000 years. Our last ice age ended 10,000 years ago meaning we are scheduled for the ice to return. However global warming may actually prevent the next ice age which is good for mankind. Because if we entered an ice age much of the Northern Hemisphere would end up under ice and you can't grow food on an ice sheet. If we enter a new ice age you would be able to produce enough food for maybe 10 percent of our current population.
