    The truth about climate change

    The truth is the climate on planet earth has been changing for the past 4.543 billion years.

    Yes, it is still changing today. Is it changing because of sun spots, slight changes in earth's orbit, movement of the magnetic north, a subtle change in ocean currents or just the fact that weather and climate are always changing? The history of climate change can only be traced for a couple of hundred years for a extremely small area that records were kept. How many temperature records exist for New York in the year 1200?

    Climate changes in geological terms are measured in thousands of years. Today our weather forecasters can't tell you accurately what the temperature will be tomorrow, or next Friday but our politicians tell us they know what it will be 10, 20, 50, years from now.

    The "Scientific Method," has been discarded and common sense is passe`.

          I'm sure the Farmer's Almanac is that old.

            But having 2 billion Chinese working nine hours a day cranking out stuff for us doesn't help.

              Its all those plastic straws!
              BTW, I noticed that businesses that use paper straws still use plastic lids on their drinks! Must be a Democrat fix.

                Volcanic eruptions have been occurring for thousands of years too. So the people of Pompeii had nothing about which to worry. It's literally the same "stuff happens" logic.

                Added for Red: link to a web site that gives the Fayetteville Arkansas forecast for the coming days. How accurate do you need it to be?
