...I don't know..why are these politics forums so full of knee-jerk,reactionary, conservative red-baiting, limbaugh-listening, calcified carbuncles pissed and pining for the Mayberry America they grew up in..? I could tell you but I frankly I've wasted enough time in here already...sea ya!

Spending money in solar cell companies that are scams, or reinventing common sense, are not good investments. Houses on barrier islands are their owners problems. Why should government prevent from building anywhere. I will build it on stilts have docksage all around. The bigger problem is all crasy people that believe all this stuff and want to us it to control other people's lives. Seriously what are you going to do in 2020 when the world is not flooded .

i don't know...don't care really...might just take my 40-footer to Nicaruagua ...find a good hurricane hole and buy a tortilla machine...and retire in the next couple years....seems like not the worst plan...

Retracted. Yes, I listen to Limbaugh. It was refreshing to finally hear someone out there who would say what I was thinking.

I welcome the doorknob....at least it tickles a bit and is an objective entity liable to dispense pain to whatever is in it's way...whereas the resident knee-jerk denizens of this forum try to bite only those who disagree with them.Please lock the door behind me...and don't let anyone with a different viewpoint in again...like your mother warned you...there are commies lurking everywhere...

I always remember a phrase it doesn't matter if they kill you with kindness or on purpose, you are still dead. Well here it is updated, It doesn't matter if a fool believes something out of malice or foolishness, if it hampers your freedom it is still tyranny. The governments of the US and the world are becoming tyrants. And I care, but ultimately I have my boat and may sailaway and we may meet in Nicaragua, but you will be partly guilty of the demise of freedom that you asked for.

Are Colorado's wildfires caused by global warming?

Devastating wildfires scorching the state of Colorado are linked to a nasty streak of hot weather across the central part of the country, but it's tougher to link them definitively to global warming, climatologists say.

Earlier research has found broad trends linking earlier spring weather, rising temperatures and increased forest fires, suggesting that climate change may play a role in fires like the Waldo Canyon blaze outside of Colorado Springs, which has burned more than 18,000 acres and consumed about 300 homes here. But linking a specific fire to the long-term trend of global warming isn't possible.
...
The immediate driver of these fires is a lack of moisture and a ridge of heat that has settled over the central United States...After record snowpack last year, the Rocky Mountains did a 180 this year, Robinson said, seeing little moisture and early snowmelt...Meanwhile, a high-pressure system in the central part of the country is preventing cloud formation and allowing the sun to bake the ground, heating things up.
...
Climate models predict that in a warming world, the West and Southwest will become drier and hotter — conditions ripe for wildfires.
...
More recently, an analysis of 1,500 years of fire and tree-ring data revealed that a combination of climate change and human forest use could explain modern "megafires," the kind that destroy large swaths of forest. Fires were associated with a dry year following several wet years, because the moist periods allow undergrowth to spring up and provide fire fuel in dry years, researchers reported in May in the journal The Holocene. The study found that human activities such as livestock grazing and suppression of small fires compounded the problem, creating denser forests ripe for large blazes.

Wish it was so simple, but you still need a flag on your boat, and a international lawyer on board.

The Arctic is warming twice as fast as the rest of the planet
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

There are benefits in the melting of the Arctic, but the risks are much greater

How about the idiots stop speculating about the 'TERRORS" about to be unleashed, and we enjoy another medieval warm period, when they named 'Greenland" !

fear mongering should be a crime punishable by DEATH! I'm SERIOUS!
I'm SICK of these A-holes!

and if you vote in carbon taxes? Then ENJOY paying them, but watch out for your neighbors who voted AGAINST carbon taxes and lost. They might not be good losers!
They just might decide to take out frustrations on those who voted FOR carbon taxes!

Wake up. Be smart. Don't let idiots getting paid to panic you be sucessfull.

Don't panic!

Oh, and Troy.

Obama 'swore' the madate for penalties under Obamacare was NOT in anyway a tax. The SCOTUS wrote it WAS a tax, otherwise it WOULD be unconstitutional!

It would be better to take the politicing to a political forum please.

Here is a list of other forums where political topics would be welcome:
