The solution to the climate change is not eliminating CO2 emissions. The secret remedy is eliminating progressives. No progressives, no problem

There can be no co existence

Oh, I see. You meant adapting our behavior while I thought you meant adapting our bodies. Sorry for the misunderstanding. Any ideas on how we could adapt our behavior to deal with climate change? Higher pollen counts and longer blooming periods are a pain to deal with when you’ve got allergies.

“Higher pollen counts and longer blooming periods are a pain to deal with when you’ve got allergies.”

Neither higher or lower pollen counts nor shorter or longer blooming periods will be a given for all species. There will likely be some combination of those conditions, and differences geographically. It will not be one set pattern fits all species and all geographic areas. We already have plenty of pharmaceutical remedies for our allergies. Different ones work better or not for different folks.

Finding the ones that work for you will be your contribution to “adapting”. LOL

Go and research the amount of concrete reinforced with steel required to stabilize the base support of one windmill.

Argue with Warren Buffet’s point on the value of a tax write-off in this article exploring what goes in to building a windmill. The energy return on investment is paltry compared to hydroelectric. If not for subsidies, none would be built. When subsidies run out, maintenance ends.

Net zero emissions are a fantasy with windmills, too.

> If we could just eliminate all the carbon dioxide that liberals are emitting we could solve this problem.

On a totally unrelated subject. Really, it is. I promise.
What is the carbon footprint of a 30-06?
