Global Warming: It's a Thing
I think that a lot of willfully ignorant or stupid people ignore the basic and nuanced scientific evidence that the temperatures of the earth are going up, over decade--that we humans are doing it, and global warming affects current weather patterns and exacerbates natural phenomena, to include worse catastrophic results in hurricanes, winds, fires. Some ocean temperatures have heated up and killed off millions or billions of sea creatures and other life in the seas.
This past week large parts of Los Angeles burnt up in awful fires. The fires are still going. Today is Saturday. There were Santa Ana winds pushing the fires to sweep vast swathes of neighborhoods getting up to 100 miles per hour. In January. Why? Higher ocean temperatures lead to higher amounts of warm winds. There is a lack of water, from previous droughts, and the embers wreck havoc across California.
Higher ocean temperatures. Why? Hotter global temperatures from all types of mankind causes, from fossil fuels and engines burning up their gases that work on the air quality, to all kinds of heat entering through the atmosphere that is weakened by carbon dioxides or chlorofluorocarbons, and all other manner of pollutants and toxins, plus the destruction of our natural environments, the trees or corals or ocean life (plastics and other contaminants killing off ocean habitats), plus the over killing of plants and animals by fishermen, or oil depletion, or maybe even all the cruise ships.
Plants, vehicles, all of us burning up things, plus depleting lands and lakes and lowlands with less trees and bushes and water ways, plus the very cattle that emit their gases that ruin the air and lands.
I am an environmentalist, and a Republican, which should not be an oxymoron.
We can be intelligent and conservative. A conservative should want to preserve our planet, our natural resources, and be efficient in producing and consuming energy.
I read a book about Greenland. The huge ice sheets have been melting and heating up for decades.
We are the cause, and we must slow it down. Antarctica, the same. Ice is melting. The oceans are rising and getting more polluted and are warming.
Don't stick your head under a rock or in the sand.
Wake up and don't be a dummy. We need to save our planet and burn less fossil fuels.
We need to clean up our acts.
Admit it.
