The National Arbor Day Foundation has published a new agricultural planting and growing zone map to more accurately show climate zones in the USA. Interestingly, the Foundation worked with the USDA on this, but the government agency decided to sit on their new version of the map. The Arbor Day Foundation went ahead and published theirs. New map is a graphic illustration of changes in temperatures since 1990:

That would be WARMER temperatures, by the way in most of the nation...with the exception of scattered parts of the intermountain West.

The whole planet was once covered by water and will be again.

You and a hundred legions of Al Gore clones won't change that from happening once more.

Why are you so in love with status quo and mediocrity?

Here is some new age stuff that will help you deal with natural cycles.

Wharfie, you should stick with numbers. The numbers around NZ do NOT show the tide is rising. 1mm per year. That's not a rise. You can't see it after 100 years of that rise.

Don't be blinded by adjectives. Deal with scientific process, numbers, and reality. I love theories too, but we need to compare our theories with reality. If reality doesn't fit the theory, there's a good chance the theory is the part that is wrong.
