Wish we had it back when I live in Cleveland.
And it smells good!
Oh good grief!
Anyway, here’s today’s first mandatory silly science “climate change” claim.
Journalism.
When majoring in “studies” proves too difficult.
Portland Press Herald. Second only to Pravda
None of these idiots know what Climate is
Ha, ha. Just how many people in Maine say, “Damn, I wish it were colder”?
While climate change is freezing Texas.
We had a snow storm yesterday on March 12, 2022 that left several inches in parts of Maine. Portland got rain all day turning to snow about 4 pm. It will be melted on my car bey the time I get to it at 10:30 this morning.
Move everyone to metro Boston and shut the place down.
Global warming, as a subject ,does have an up side. It reveals sources that have compromised. If a source pushes this scam don’t trust anything else it claims.
Its warming up but more frequent ice storms. Cloudy with a chance of meatballs.
The coming worldwide famines which will be the direct consequence of the dismantling of the fossil fuel industry will be blamed by the MSM on “climate change”. The MSM are propagandists who are trying to condition and indoctrinate gullible, easily influenced people.
***damaging potholes and water pollution from excessive salting to keep up with more frequent ice storms. ***
This again? I remember people being urged to look for “pollution” screaming about this back in 1970. Among other things they were screaming about was tire residue from worn out tires and burning of Christmas trees after Christmas.
As usual it was the “Karens” of that time doing the screaming.
Sorry to burst the bubble here. Potholes are more prevalent due to government shifting gas taxes and other resources targeted to maintain roads and bridges and infrastructure and they instead use those funds to defray skyrocketing welfare costs as they keep giving money away.
Experts. What would we ever do without them?
Next thing you know, the best minds in science will invent a pig oink translator so that.. pig farmers will be able to understand their animals.
Meanwhile the uncomplicated real world says, "Yay, sunshine!" or, "Yay, bacon!"
The Portland Press Herald is a useless rag. Here in central Maine I’ve had more sub zero temperatures than, I think, ever before. The mud thing is BS too.
Wish we had it back when I live in Cleveland.
And it smells good!
....assuming that global warming is anything but made-up claptrap.
The state highway in front of our house was concrete poured in 1933. They used coal cinders for snow traction. Everyone used studs. No potholes until the mid sixties when they started using salt, the concrete was asphalted over in a couple years. Think the auto industry was okay with their cars being rusted out and beaten up? Of course they were — they made billions replacing them. They probably paid for the salt.
Now the highway is milled and repaved every five years, with constant heroic pothole maintenance — still there are always deep potholes. Zero maintenance for thirty years, now millions every year, and terrible damage and death from potholes and salt.
The cinders were perfect — they provided traction, and they absorbed sunlight to melt the snow. The salt has killed every small stream in the region — the first thaw sends nearly saturated brine down the waterways — nothing survives. We’re “salting” our own earth.
Climate change does what to local weather patterns? Nobody was around the last time we were in a interglacial period, so how would science know what an interglacial period is actually like?
It can’t get much warmer at the Equator everything will catch fire and water will boil but that will cause clouds and then cooling , the planet knows what it’s doing if it didn’t we would NOT BE HERE
