Another Global Warming Tragedy

A Tragedy That Surely Could Have Been Averted!

The local fish wrapper, The Star and Sickle in Minneapolis is reporting that scores of songbirds were killed in the northern 2/3 of Minnesota over the past few weeks.

They apparently starved to death.

No this wasn't due to the use of pesticides. It wasn't due to excessive feral cats. No, the cause was an extended winter that climaxed 10 days ago with 15" of snow. Bugs did not survive so neither did the birds.

Oh, if only we had kept our incandescent light bulbs and built a few less wind turbines and belched that final snow off our driveways with nasty fossil fuel burning snowblowers, we may have kept the winter to more normal temperatures and even now, we would be hearing the lyrical songs.

Al, Al Gore, have you no compassion for these helpless songbirds? At what temperature will you be satisfied?

If the Rev Gore doesn't stop we will start to lose many more by Jaded

species because they will all freeze to death in the mini ice age that no one looked for because of global warming!

My closet by Shoebox

is becoming very challenging to manage now. Is it warming or is it cooling? Do I keep short sleeves or long sleeves? I wish someone would decide!

Ah, you've missed Algore's point... by Joe Schmo

It's climate change. You keep both. Everything is our fault. Whether it goes up or down doesn't matter, it's us messing up mother earth either way. :)

Here's Some Great News About Global Warming by Skanderbeg

Okay, I will launch a pre-emptive apology before I post the comment to follow:

1) I'm in Pretoria (South Africa);

2) It's almost midnight here and I'm very tired and almost giddy anyway;

3) I just got back from being over at a friend's house for dinner, and they insisted that I provide my expert opinion on the latest additions of Cape Region Reds to their wine cellar (by successive empirical analysis);

4) When I got settled in my room and checked my e-mail, someone had sent me this and it's just too funny (even if you're stone sober).

So here is today's wonderful news about global warming:

Great tits cope well with warming

Great tits in Britain seem to be adapting to climatic change, scientists report....

I can sleep peacefully tonight now....
