Next Chapter in the Climate Change Debate. Woman: ...and now the sixth mass extinction in Earth's history... Man: See? Mass extinctions happen all the time...
Makes me kinda glad I’m getting old and probably won’t be around long enough to enjoy the “best” of it when the semi-solid waste really hits the climate management system!
According to the assistant head of the EPA, (There is no head, because Congress won’t approve one), at 400 ppm, Carbon dioxide has reached the level it was over 1,000,000 years ago when the seas where 17 feet higher than they are today, and it’s already too late to reverse it.Mass extinctions are inevitable, so there’s no longer any need for an EPA.
We’re on track to make 2014 the hottest year on record. All but one of the ten warmest years on record are in the 21st century — and we’re only fourteen years in.And yet, I feel sure there will promptly be twenty posts that ignore the data, ignore this link, and make random, baseless assertions regarding the science (which they are not capable of judging), various political figures (which are irrelevant), and how this is just normal (which it isn’t).I’d say “let the games begin,” but to those of us who live on Planet Earth, it is hardly a game. It’s deadly serious.http://www.salon.com/2014/11/29/earth_is_on_pace_for_its_hottest_and_coldest_year_in_history_partner/
“..hunting for fashion”…What about food. The Dodo ad the passenger pigeon are examples.There used to be so many passenger pigeons that the sky turned dark when they flew over during migration.

Actually, this was already happening in North Africa, and it was called “anthropgenic climate change”, in the 1950’s!

note that these last two humans are male so they can’t reproduce.

mdavis just repeats his line over and over. He never bothers to support what he says. His comments are about as useful as a broken record.

To the ’toon; “God” is standing in the wings with two sacks, with two new monkeys, to start the whole process over again, hoping for better results.
