We’re in a carbon drought.

That is according to Professor William Happer of Princeton University. The renowned physicist says when it comes to carbon dioxide, there’s more good than bad. He goes on to say most of carbon dioxide’s effect has already happened. He points to the logarithmic dependence of temperature on carbon dioxide levels.

Happer says the unique properties of carbon dioxide mean that current levels would need to double for another one-degree increase in temperature and they’d have to double again for another one degree rise.

It would also sink all of our coastal cities, melt the ice caps

I can recall in Chicago when we would get a few inches of snow we would still go to school.

Out here if there is a dusting of snow the school bus stays in the barn and school is called off.

About 4 years ago we got 20 inches of snow here in SW Missouri. Everything was shut down for a week.

I heard also that there was some snow in north Florida which is unheard of. I know a girl who lives in Tamarac, Florida and she told me it was 17 degrees there the other morning. Not good for the citrus trees. ;)
