No county is better off? Not even northern counties of Minnesota and Michigan than may have longer growing seasons?

The richest counties are the ones surrounding the Beltway.
Works for me.

Well, that was persuasive.
The article actually had a chart!

I ran similar numbers on eco-doomsday while writing a pro nuclear energy book called “Yucca Mountain Blueprint”. Now I don’t believe the global warming baloney, but just for kicks I figured America could save $8 QUADRILLION dollars by 2100 going all nuclear and saving us from the scourge of global warming.

Droughts AND floods. Is there anything that climate change CAN’T do? /sarc

I believe the climate “experts” have some sort of pathological mutation to their DNA which has degraded their logic-and-reason centers in their damaged brains. What tripe. Who stole money from taxpayers to give these idiots grants? What a scam.

According to these Luddites the earth is a teakettle being boiled away by stupid humans. I had this argument with a global warming scientist recently. I asked her why the ants were not doing more damage than humans. In sheer biomass ants are far more prevalent and shape their environment for their own convenience just like humans.
She replied, “they are part of nature.” When I asked her where humans came from if not nature, she was stumped. I suggested “God, just like the ants,” but she would have none of it.

When the first sentence is complete bs, why should I believe anything else in the article?
The biggest cost of climate change is meeting unnecessary government mandates.
If there is any real climate change, considering how slow the change would be, the cost is unlikely to exceed normal maintenance work, which must be done anyway.

Every time they say “climate science” we should correct them and say “climate astrology.”

Yeah, like the last Ice Age, which created much of the geography of the US...

Here in the Phoenix area when we had the partial eclipse the other day, the temperature went from right around 100 to 92 in a matter of minutes while the sun was partially blocked.
Maybe these “scientists” can come up with a fancy chart for that.
Or maybe, as you say, the intensity of the sun (and solar flares) might just cause temperatures to fluctuate?

States and localities across the U.S. are already experiencing profound weather shifts associated with climate change, from rising sea levels and flooding to drought and dangerously hot summers.The assertion that States and localities across the U.S. are already experiencing substantial weather shifts is profound and unsupported.
By playing with the assumptions, data, and methodology you can produce any result you have been paid to support.
