Climate is now defined as a 15 year average of the weather. Pretty small window. The warming seen from 1900-1950 is the same amount seen 1950-2000. And we haven't had any significant temp change in 18 years, which isn't a trend. But 15 years of change is.
The urban heat sink adjustments are made to the rural data. Official records don't jive with satellite data.
As old weather equipment is replaced with digital they set it up where it's convenient instead of where the weather service says it should be. There's one at a university in the southwest that's in the middle of a parking lot. One in Colorado on the wall above a heat pump. Some are even near the runways at an airport. Nothing like jet engines going by to inflate your data.
We have half the official weather monitoring stations we had in 1980. Most of the ones closed are at higher elevations and latitudes. The cooler places.
And that's not even getting into the ethics of some of those pushing this idea (can you say climategate or hockey stick graph?).
In places like portland, Oregon, they've limited development so, that to build a house, you have to knock down 2 and put up 3. They drew a line on a map and said no building past here. They figure it's inflated housing costs by 30-40% and any land past that line is near worthless.
If they start talk in your area about a regional planning board, fight that poo. You don't want it. They put a token local on it to help the illusion of having local input but the plan has already been made. And no one will talk about costs and who's going to pay for it. With every one being political appointees, the buck never stops. You get the master planner's vision of what you should have with absolutely no regard to property rights.

Today's Featured Article - A Lifetime of Farm Machinery - by Joe Michaels. I am a mechanical engineer by profession, specializing in powerplant work. I worked as a machinist and engine erector, with time spent overseas. I have always had a love for machinery, and an appreciation for farming and farm machinery. I was born and raised in Brooklyn, New York. Not a place one would associate with farms or farm machinery. I credit my parents for instilling a lot of good values, a respect for learning, a knowledge of various skills and a little knowledge of farming in me, amo
