It’s far enough off in the future they’re hoping we won’t remember. Leftists are nothing if not pathetic ;’)

I once read an article written back in the 1920s or 30s in which the author claimed the Earth had a ring of clouds around the equator because of the heat.

It is a thermodynamic impossibility unless we move the earth into say...... Mercury’s orbit

The only thing “stunning” about this claim is that it was made in the 70s.
It was made in the 80s.
It was made in the 90s.
It was made in the 00s.
.
Failed every time. The decades came and went.
There is as endless string of idiots being born who think they are “smarter.”
By random chance, it may actually come true some time in the next 10,000 years.
.
The only constant planet is a dead planet.

Just curious; do you own stock in a solar power company?
SARCASM.

So how does that explain that the deeper you go the colder it gets? Just an old scuba diver wondering.

They hope we will all have forgotten by then when the ice is still there.

The only thing the MORON POLITICIANS in Sacramento have to do is look at the geologic record in California, we have experienced mega-drougths in California on and off for the last several million years.

Does this mean that we can finally get to see all of the dinosaurs living under the Antarctic ice? Cool.

The LIB idiots would argue that you didn’t go deep enough. What complete, utter fools and liars.

LIBs are truly insane. No wonder they shut most of the mental institutions in the 60’s & 70’s. Now there aren’t enough places to “put” them. Pretty clever.

Negative. As a matter of fact, I have studiously avoided anything that smacks of the radical green movement AND any vehicle that usually comes factory equipped with an Obama sticker (Prius, perhaps?)

However, I've spent most of my 60+ years developing intimate relationships with things electrical and mechanical. It started when I was 4, and became fascinated with our Kirby vacuum and my American Flyer trains.

That, and my frustration with seeing gas prices on a roller coaster since 1973. So, I'm finally admitting to myself that an EV makes sense for my daily 40 mile round trip commute, ESPECIALLY if I can finally reduce my dependence on PG&E for electrical power. (The fine folks who brought us the San Bruno gas line disaster.)

But I still have way too many (according to my better half) 2 wheeled, 4 wheeled, and winged vehicles that fully depend on petroleum products...

FWIW, the annual average low temperature of the Antarctic is -56 F and the annual high is -49 F..........

If the global temps rise enough (81 degrees) to melt the antarctic, then we're all screwed anyway........

It’s always ten years from now. The alarmists have been predicting doom in ten years at least since 1990. The popular phrase to justify everything was “We might not be here in 10 years.” We’re still waiting 25 years later.
