Global Warming

[Fishslime]

I'm in PA if this rain is from global warming, we'll drown before we melt-sometimes Mother Nature or her Big Buddie really suck-my baby birds,flowers,butterflies are hurting-maybe going to church might help-naw-we don't need snow and being struck by lightening too(and locusts)

Send some rain my way.......

My neighbors grass is getting brown and parts of my lot of brown.

We may be getting some wet stuff this week. Just in time to wet down before the big fireworks!!!!

You are missing the "global" part. You can't tell from the rain or the dryness. You can tell from extreme weather, Alaska is melting, there is such severe drought in parts of the world that the wind is blowing the dust all the way to Europe. They are turning into desert. By 2050, people will really be able to see a change if we don't change our energy sources and conserve, respect, protect our planet.

There hasn't been any sustained warming in Pennsylvania since 1895:

It's Global Warming. It doesn't have to get warm, it can get colder, too. I just took a Human Ecology class through the USDA Graduate School/Audubon Naturalist Society. I read "Plan B, Mobilizing to Save Civilization" and "Climate Change and Biodiversity". Climate change for some people is like seeing the trees instead of the forest.

That is very interesting. My in-laws are from PA and they never seemed to complain about heat, even though its definitely not as cold there as in Michigan.

I'm new to the forums by the way, looking to start raising Monarchs with my kids!
