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 our climates.

3. The earth is a rock.

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?

Since there has been no climate change to "tackle' in the last 16 years I'd recommend praying for snow.

What a pile of unscientific, conjecture-loaded rubbish this article is. Its only redeeming quality is that it demonstrates the lengths to which the Left and the Media will go to ram the hoax of MMGW down people’s throats.

Well, it looks like the term “climate change” has pretty much replaced “global warming” and “global cooling”. “Climate change” is a safer bet as things can go either way, and man can still be blamed for it.

Animal populations change naturally all the time.

The reality of nature doesn't fit the narrative.

Or maybe ticks increase because the host moose increase, having nothing to do with climate.

Why is it that every natural cycle is blamed on "climate change".
This year ticks happen to have a surge, next year it will be something else.

“A moose once bit my sister”.

Considering the title, this requires a modification.

"A tick bit my sister moose once."

” a four-year, $695,000 study of the state’s moose population. “

That’s the bottom line. Keep that money flowing to the bureaucrats. Global warming is such a convenient excuse.

The irony is that cliate change increased the moose population.

More moose, more ticks

Ticks are a moose population dampner

It was only 55 degrees in northern Illinois this morning.

What warming?

There are a lot of different species of ticks and winter ticks are one. Whether they are a threat to the moose herd is highly questionable since all large game animals harbor these bugs without much damage. Anyway, one cold snowy winter will apparently solve the alleged problem.

Since the advent of Trayvon thought, it is apparent that sisters are at fault
