You dumb old Freepers laughed at Al Gore ... and now look what's happening!

[Fido969]

And how is this a bad thing?

[smokingfrog]

[Fledermaus]

Send butter.

[ThomasThomas]

Bring butter.

[blueunicorn6]

Bring in the butter bazookas!

[hal ogen]

Note to self: Schedule trip to PEI...and take a lot of drawn butter.

[Hostage]

I will personally take all the excess lobster from the Canucks for free.

[gorush]

Those poor bastards!
But seriously, lobster used to be fed to prisoners, such was its esteem in the higher classes, back in the 19th century.

[Jim from C-Town]

You beat me to it! Lobster, Over run, Where is the butter and cracker?

[SandRat]

look at the jam Godzila is in in repy #1. LOL

And how is this a bad thing?

It's only a bad thing if climate change negatively impacts the production of drawn butter.

[Cicero]

PEI has always had a lot of lobsters. And parts of the coast have long been much warmer that you would expect from a place that far north, because of the way the Gulf Stream goes by off-shore.

Not much need for Gorebull warming.

[Covenantor]

Not to worry, PEI has plenty of butter.

Had many great fresh lobsters straight off the boats while camping there.

As others have said, throw in some butter and a baked potato on the side and I won’t complain a bit.

[Politicalkiddo]

And peanut butter used to be high-class fare. It’s interesting how these things change.

[Billthedrill]

You bring the lobsters, I’ll bring the pot. Between us we can save the world! (Sound of butter being sucked off fingers...)

[Fido969]

I live in Maine, and on a cold night, we’ll go down to the beach and put a big pot of boiling water over a bonfire. When it’s really cold, the lobsters will scamper right up the beach and jump into the pot.

Insects of the sea...

That said mrs p6 will want to move there.
