Biden looks to provide relief from extreme heat as record high temperatures persist across the US
ABC, AP ^ | 7/27/23 | CHRIS MEGERIAN, MATTHEW DALY and DREW COSTLEY Associated Press

“Even those places that are used to extreme heat have never seen it as hot as it is now for as long as it's been,'' Biden said. “Even those who deny that we’re in the midst of a climate crisis can’t deny the impact of extreme heat is having on Americans.''

Biden's bid to address the immediate effects of climate change come as he faces pressure from fellow Democrats and environmental groups to declare a climate "emergency,'' a step he has so far resisted. The steps announced Thursday supplement his long-term agenda for reducing greenhouse gas emissions and deploying clean energy technology, policies that may not pay dividends for years to come while global temperatures continue to rise

Hey, this is the man who cured cancer. If he can cure cancer, then this is doable.

I thought he was busy blocking the sun and building a trans Atlantic Ocean Railroad.

Paris was cold and wet today.

Global warming?

Sometimes it’s hot, sometimes it’s cool, it comes in cycles, several of them, and if I had to take a guess, that big fireball called a sun which detonates about 523,809,523,809,523,809 little boys worth of energy every day has something to do with the temperatures we have. That sun produces about 6,000,000,000 Hiroshima A-bombs worth of energy every second and it fluctuates in size, temperatures, has flares that shoot off from it. It’s not static.

One day, that sun is going to have a hiccup, or it’s going to have a bad case of indigestion, and all self important life that STILL thinks everything revolves around them on this planet will become solid and very cold, or boil away, to include the atmosphere and oceans.

Today there is an enormous amount of junk science which always coincidentally proves “scientifically” whatever it is people want to believe and makes some folks really wealthy. But it’s still just junk, even if repeated 1,000 times.

So people sweat a bit. BFD. There’s so many obese Americans that it’s a good thing. Sweat some weight off pigs.

Biden asks government scientists if they can blow him up like a giant balloon covering all the continental United States, shielding it from the sun. Those same scientists are offering to do it.

Go to Hell Joey.
I’m way beyond SICK AND TIRED of hearing about how the Pervert, Pedophile Joey Biden or the Sexually Deviant Biden Administration is going to do anything to help Americans.

This story comes out right after hearing how Joey’s stupid Green Energy crap will SCREW Americans. Screw You Joey.

Sorry, maybe too much coffee today. Nah FJB!!!

I think that’s part of the current problem. Obese people are more affected by heat, I believe.

I work outside year round. The last three summers here in the NY Metro have been milder than what I am used to going back to 1982. Today it was 92. That’s standard summer. Heat waves didn’t used to get called until AFTER 95 degrees. My Atlas. Copco compressor which gets iffy after 95 hasn’t gone into heat shutdown in three years. Today I did a monster job that reved it for an hour and change. No problem. It is t as hot as it used to get period.

That was my intent. If we want to put America back on track, it begins with everyone have enough respect to stop being gluttons and avoiding the other deadly sins. Pride is high on the list, since that leads to nearly all other bad behaviors. When people start taking care of themselves, then they can work on family … and eventually country.

What does Biden plan to do? Cut off everyone’s electricity to allow us the acclimatize to summer?

The daily scare-mongering headlines are so obvious. I expect soon to hear that there will be a new “climate” tax deduction on everyone’s paycheck. You know that anytime government officials start screaming “crisis” that a new tax and more restrictions on American’s freedoms is soon to follow.

Our standard of living in America is slowly being reduced. Except for those who are politically connected. It is the government officials’ hope that no one notices.

Those are the same questions I ask, and get yelled at the same way.

What happened to all of the global cooling we were warned about as kids? I’m still alive to have survived that ice age…funny…didn’t even notice.

It is 119 in Death Valley today compared to your 116 as a kid. Don’t know how much more proof you need of global warming. Notice how all of the folks talking about the hot summers they lived through don’t go back past about 1950?

We never had hot summers before then!

NEVER! /s
