YOKOHAMA, Japan Climate change is already having sweeping effects on every continent and throughout the worlds oceans, scientists reported Monday, and they warned that the problem is likely to grow substantially worse unless greenhouse emissions are brought under control.
The report by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, a United Nations group that periodically summarizes climate science, concluded that ice caps are melting, sea ice in the Arctic is collapsing, water supplies are coming under stress, heat waves and heavy rains are intensifying, coral reefs are dying, and fish and many other creatures are migrating toward the poles or in some cases going extinct.

This thing reads like a Dr. Suess or Bill Peet children’s book.
This from the “paper of record”...

Don’t you get it? The climate, prior to the invention of the SUV, was always static, predictable and pleasant.
We never had “wild weather” until Americans invented the SUV.

What is curious to me about climate change is that China is belching huge cloulds of carbon into the atmosphere and the U.S. is emitting little girlish poots.
Yet liberals think the U.S. needs to lead the charge (and this is applicable only if climate change is remotely possible...and that is at best debatable).

They roll out the “The honey bees are disappearing” every 10 years or so. They think plants can’t pollinate on their own.
