Climate Change could cause nothing... or could cause popcorn to fall from the sky, or unicorns to have more offspring.

The key word here is ‘could’...

I’ve never heard of any shortage of “greens” over the past 40 years.

Hell, arugula is the crown jewel of the vegan collective.

I would encourage anyone who believes that humans are in some form or another responsible for “Global warming” and since it did not fly very well, was later on changed to “Climate Change” to take the time and make and effort to read “Velikovsky & 3600 signature” as well as “The real cause of earthquakes and volcanic eruptions” Those two events could easily account for climate change. If anything, should the Grand Solar Minimum be the dominant event, at least for time being, the greater concern should be global cooling.

No doubt those humans contribute insignificant and minimal amounts to the cause of global warming, which pale in comparison what frequent volcanic eruptions put in to the atmosphere. Whatever the trigger may be for Velikovsky’s 3600 year signature event, it appears to be a repetitive event and its effects were not lost at the then Pharaoh of ancient Egypt, eventually precipitating the release of the Israelis from bondage, an event which found its way into the annals of history as the “Exodus”

It just so happens that once again we seem to be coming up on the anniversary of this 3600 year event and along with it earthquakes as well as volcanic eruptions abound. This along with ever more crazy weather patterns, from way too hot in one place or unseasonably cold in another. This along with flooding in some areas and draughts in others, as well as one season running into another.

If this was not enough chances appear better than good that once again after a long time most likely we are heading into another “Grand Solar Minimum” For these two events to run concurrent appears to be coincidental, never the less acting together their impact could produce a double whammy with very undesirable and destructive results.

Time and space does not permit to go into details, but for anyone interested, plenty of information may be found on the internet. Needless to say there is also plenty of misinformation and a person needs to use common sense to separate facts from fiction. No doubt that what you just have read may cause some people to shake their heads and smile. I for one hope that mankind may get lucky, and some of the predictions will not materialize and the smile will continue to remain on everyone’s face.

More plants but less vegetables. Odd.

When ever I read "scientists say," I want to know which scientists, and where do they practice science. Without answers to those questions, the statement is nothing but noise.
