What evidence do you have that anything you are proposing as a solution will make the events you point towards lessen in degree or just go away ? Allow be to point out, cuz we all know you are a math n science giant, that every single weather event you use to embellish your pov has been occurring since the beginning of recorded history.

ROTFLMAO......since when has weather not been disruptive? Last time I checked, "bad" weather has always been so. For example, over 500 years ago, how many Spanish ships loaded with gold went down in bad weather? How many summers of crop failures due to bad weather over recorded history? All I can say is try some critical thinking before posting the garbage you post.

Hi Wharf Rat; Re: "What's disruptive? Shutting down the other coast with snow? Flooding in Calgary and Colo? This?"; None of that is due to global warming. Snow has shut down the east coast for millions of years, LOL. What do you think it was doing at Valley Forge? Calgary I'm not familiar with but Colorado has had flash floods since white men first arrived there. Go read the accounts of the gold miners and you'll find them. What you're doing is blaming weather on CO2. The motivation for this is that leftists hate science and technology and want to eliminate or limit it as much as they can. The fact that you think the minor crap that happened in Colorado to be a cause for concern is simply a sign of how little you know about this planet. How about a flood that impacted Oregon, Nevada, California, Idaho, Washington, Utah, Arizona and New Mexico? If this happened recently, you'd be screaming "global warming", LOL: The Great Flood of 1862 or Noachian Deluge was the largest flood in the recorded history of Oregon, Nevada and California, occurring from December 1861 to January 1862. It was preceded by weeks of continuous rains (or snows in the very high elevations) that began in Oregon in November 1861 and continued into January 1862. This was followed by a record amount of rain from January 9–12, and contributed to a flood which extended from the Columbia River southward in western Oregon and through California to San Diego, and extended as far inland as Idaho in Washington Territory, Nevada and Utah in Utah Territory and Arizona in western New Mexico Territory. en.wikipedia.org Now THAT's a flood worth worrying about. -- Carl
