  1. I'm on the Southern Coast of California, it's been cold this summer, and today it is thick with overcast. Climate is not Weather, and Weather is not Climate, it is dangerous to conflate the two.

  2. Yes, all the deniers should Google and find that without fire, Sequoia's would not even exist, which is true of other plants in the area. I've hiked the Pacific Trail, the last time there was a controlled burn in Kings Canyon for just that reason.

  3. You do know the previous president's daughter converted to "Yo! Semite"

  4. @Null Pointer I don't disagree, and agree climate is affected by human action. I don't agree on the remedies being presented, or the hyper-rhetoric on the subject asserted by activists and the media. My part of the world, and for perhaps the next 100 years, regardless of what is done related to carbon emissions, will be most affected by two WEATHER events, El Nino and La Nina. It's quite possible it will be warmer, but in some areas of California, it may be colder and wetter, which would benefit areas like our Central Valley and Northern Coastal regions. We don't know, and to say we do, is dangerous policy. I follow the Copenhagen Consensus of Bjorn Lomborg. Let's rank prioritize our policies and don't allow grifters like Al Gore and his partner Blood to profit from our fears, which in many cases they promote.
