If biodiversity is the object, why not a warmer climate?

If scientists prove successful at clonging extinct species, and if a warming trend continues, I wonder what the chances are of a real Jurrasic Park someday, maybe in the FL everglades? Might run Disneyworld right out of business!

There have been several Mamallian macrofaunas present on the North American continent since the dinosaurs. All of them contained their superpredators.

If you think street gangs and crack dealers are bad, you ain't seen nothin' yet.

These critters might make the li'l ol' Kodiak bear seem like a wuss. No doubt some twit would want to release them in the hinterlands, but any good predator goes where the easy groceries are.....

"a real Jurrasic Park"......

Gore W. Bush can visit the fauna and animals there with Laura in his post-Presidential years. Maybe we can have a nice jogging trail included there (with oxygen cannisters along the trail) named after G.W. Or is it Gore-ge W. Bush?

"If scientists prove successful at clonging extinct species"........those darn clonging scientists! Just kidding!

I have been raising groundcover (pachysandra) in an outdoor Nursery in Western Pennsylvania for 20 years. I am liking the slightly warmer winters and the increase in FREE water. We have been averaging about 5 more inches of rain per year for the past decade. The warming .......... is cool!
