[multi-state press release]

CHICAGO (July 28, 2009) — If the United States does not significantly curb heat-trapping emissions, global warming will seriously harm [Insert State Name Here] climate and economy, according to a new peer-reviewed report released today by the Union of Concerned Scientists (UCS).

This July is about to go down in weather history, here in the Twin Cities. It will be the first July ever since records have been kept that there was not ONE 90 degree day. The July average is six days in the 90’s.......

Now that Obama is in the WH, it’s back to global warming from climate change.

I think the most urgent concern is how this will affect Brett Favre’s latest comeback attempt.

I saw this locally (western PA). The big intro said we are all going to die from the massive heat and all that. Then in the actual report I believe it was stated that our winter temperatures would rise between 3 and 7 degrees. Wow!

Personally, I wouldn’t mind some global warming this winter. We’ve had two really cold winters back to back and we are really due for a relatively mild winter. This summer we didn’t even hit 90 once, which is unusual. Of course, I’m not really complaining; my air conditioning bills have been almost non-existent.

So...if global warming is coming, I say “bring it on.”

Sheesh...

One of the most BASIC facts about CO2 and warmer climates is that crops grow BETTER and produce HIGHER YIELDS.

Never let plain, basic facts stand in the way of a good scare.

Bad luck I fear, record cold this year all across the southern half of the world. I expect we will see more of that this year in America.

Chicago, which has had its coldest July in 66 years, probably is wondering, “Hey algore, where’s OUR global warming? You promised!!”
