If you want make a global warming nut cringe ask them about volcanic activity within the last 5 years.
And here I thought that I didn't mow my lawn in winter because the grass went to Disney World when it got cold.
The Eco-Enquirer? Ummm...
This is obviously satire.
Damn fall and winter. A September cruise to New England and Canada can cure us from its ravages.
Uh, what usually happens in the Fall in your area?
In mine, everything turns red, orange, yellow, brown, etc.
The leaves even FALL off the trees here!
Tsunamis are caused by undersea earthquakes. What does that have to do with heating oil?
I noticed this last fall. I thought something was odd.
The evidence is mounting that things change. And the evidence has also mounted that they change back again.
And the idea that man can do anything to effect the climate is a bit like man proposing to alter paths of the planets or the nature and duration of the seasons. It's megalomaniacal lunacy. Even if he could do it, he's a fool for considering it.
Do you spray that directly on the leaves, or use a soaker-hose?
I'm not a skeptic of global warming. I am a skeptic of the Humans Bad approach to it, since this is a phenomenon that has happened multiple time in earth's history.
But dieback in veg in the fall? Isn't that when it's supposed to die back? Tell me what is different about this dieback than what the normative "should" be?
When you read these type of articles, written from these points of view, it is truly hard to know what the science is actually saying, because these articles are written to push an agenda.
What does the science say? Not what does the politics and beliefs of those who have belief issues say should be what is used to judge these things.
This is a very spun article.
The image is of New York mainly, not much New England unless a slice of Vermont counts.
Funny stuff. This writer has a future at "Enviro-whacks-R-us"
An outright LIE! They apparently cannot distinguish between theory and proof.
People are going to think I am crazy but I am also noticing that days are getting shorter. There seems to be less hours of sunlight as we move toward winter.
When are we going to come to our senses and shut down this economy.
We will soon be totally in the dark unless we turn off all the lights.
It could be an insect infestation. There has to be more investigation, IMHO, before fossil fuels can be blamed.
In America it's called Fall season...
"100% chance of sunshine toward morning with an increasing likelihood of darkness toward nightfall, women and minorities hardest hit."

I have not seen the numbers/data behind this and can't say much about the basic science. That said, the explanation given by the "big oil" scientist would explain both explain things at the equator and towards the poles as changes in light patterns are more extreme there with the seasons. Finally, who officially discredits scientists these days? Since the catholic church got out of the business, I did want to know who was dispensing the good science seal of approval.
I've got an open mind on both climate change and that man may be influencing it. I also know that when scientists get new fancy toys, they notice things that they have not seen before and begin to think about why. The first reason given is rarely spot on.
Finally TankerKC, what evidence? This would have NOTHING to do with AlGores global warming as particles in the air would tend to cool things. Only curious as to what mounting you were referencing so ominously.
Amazing how well that cycle corresponds with the heating oil usage season...
