A Global Warming protest was cancelled at Yale University because of the cold weather and snow. Such cancellations seem to be rather frequent, as the weather just does not seem to cooperate with the Global Warming promoters.

A small group of students with possibly too much time their on hands has been pushing Yale University to sell its investments in fossil fuel producing corporations. Other universities have encountered the same protests from small numbers of their students. It is still unclear how these students think harming the finances of their alma mater would be of any use in making the climate of Earth any more to their liking.

It is unclear why the students fear warmer weather. Humans have always done better when the climate switched to warmer ambient temperatures. During the Medieval Climate Optimum the Vikings were able to farm areas of Greenland that are now locked in permafrost. Europe experienced improved crops due to the warmer weather, which ushered in the Renaissance and later the Industrial Revolution.

Presbyterian Church USA has taken the same divestment stand. That along with not allowing the mention of Israel in sermon, song, or scripture reference.

higher ed propagandists test students by leading them to the window and asking them what they see, we see 3 feet of snow they see scorched earth from severe heat, mission accomplished

I love it. Here in Connecticut we are preparing for our fourth major storm in 4 weeks with temps below zero.

I’d like to cut off all fossil fuel supplied resources to these Yale twits and see how long they last in today’s predicted blizzard.

OK!! Everybody pay attention!

Lesson for today:

1. The sun is 1,300,000 times as big as the earth.

2. The sun is a ball of fire that controls the climates of all its planets.

3. The earth is one of the sun’s planets.

4. The earth is a speck in comparison to the size of the sun.

5. Inhabitants of the earth are less than specks.

Study Question: How do less-than-specks in congress plan to control the sun?

As a protest, these idiots should demand that all heat and hot water that goes to their dorms be Forced to CEASE IMMEDIATELY!
