There Is No Global Warming - 127 Death Valley, 112 Las Vegas, 122 Thermal, 121 Coachella Valley

MSN article about high temps in Southwest. Heat to continue for a few moe day. Death Valley a record. When are we going to shout down the deniers? When are we going to over run them?

Add to the heat frequent deluges of rain and extreme wild fires world world wide. We are experiencing climate heating not warming. Now we are cooking.

It's actually called Climate Change Due To Human Activities.

Yeah, the Earth is getting warmer. I know because we're having a heat wave in NYC, too.

Thanks, Trump.

The kind you did in high school...

the test tube remains blue until just enough acid is added (drop by drop) and then it suddenly flips to red.

Instead of this being some sort of smooth transition that takes a century or so to change from temperate climate to warm planet climate (with the changes to ocean currents, jet stream, rain events, etc)... maybe it happens in 10 to 20 years. A mere blink of the eye in geologic scale.

As the Samuel Jackson said in Jurassic Park... "Hold on to your butts"

No particular weather event can be definitively linked to Anthropogenic Climate Change. Overall patterns can only confirm the model, not prove it.

this is what my local Meteorology Professor Cliff Mass always says. Yeah, yeah...

the Denier Industry will never be shouted down. Money = speech, and they're funded by Oil and Gas, Inc. None of them actually believe the horseshit they're shoveling into the weak minds of their marks.

The leaves on our avocado trees are a mix of some green and brown.

We watered. But it's never enough.

Los Angeles is losing a lot of trees.

The heat is unrelenting.

when that region starts getting into the 130’s.

People will be praying for a Mount Tambora level volcanic eruption to cool the planet down.
