“Can we bill California for its carbon footprint?”

Absolutely. The UN and EPA should be fining California up the wazoo for this CA Gov.-created pollution storm!

Yes. My son and I were discussing whether we were looking at the sun or the moon one morning last week.

Things that happen every once in a while ... tend to happen every once in a while.

It's also interesting that once they get down to talking about it scientifically (real science, not media science) - i.e. at the level of recent and local weather conditions ... they express the fact that short term weather conditions were the cause, not me driving my car to the store.

...but it must cost a fortune to paint and maintain those white lines around every State.
And yet we can't get a border fence built.

Well, once it does get built it still has to be maintained and painted.

Start at one end and when you’re done, go back to where you started and do it again just like they do with the Golden Gate Bridge. Lifetime Government Employment.

That would be a blessing indeed.

I can imagine all that smoke is really going to be doing a good job of seeding the clouds.

Doesn’t require painting. Has a special coating that will turn rusty in color, but is not rust.

It’s not noticeable today because there is a breeze. Several days ago it was. From my house, it looked like it was raining out over the ocean, only it wasn’t rain it was smoke from the fires.
