Global Warming update

Wind ChillHuh? It’s 10 degrees outside when I get in the car today. The rest of the country is experiencing a deep freeze. And if only all of the NFC fans had purchased more carbon offsets before the big championship game last night, there is a good chance the NY Giants coach could have avoided the frost bite on his face. That is according to how I understand the logic used in the global warming debate.

Suppose the opposite were occurring (e.g. an ice age – it happened before and it’ll happen again sometime according to most “experts”). What would humans be blamed for and what would we have to do to heat up the environment so we don’t all become Popsicles? Buy more hummers. Fly more corporate jets. Produce more cows (they are great a warming things up). Get more cans of hairspray to open up more of a whole in the ozone so the sun can warm things up a bit. Whatever it is, the media is bound to come up with something to scare us into submission. Just like happens now.
