1. Yes, the climate changes through time. BUT we're pumping 2 billion tons of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere a year JUST in electricity production from coal plants in the U.S. Where does that carbon go? Most of it gets sequestered in the oceans. The oceans are our favorite dumping grounds. You see the reports on dead and dying fisheries? You see the reports on the explosion of jellyfish everywhere?
2. As i said, the climate will change on it own throughout the centuries. Our "small" contributions over the past century have about the same effect as a nitrous booster on a gasoline engine - put a little in and get a large response.
3. Well, I'm sure not gonna just sit down and say "Oh Well". Personally, I'm trying to hang onto my Dad's farm and keep enough ammunition to hold off the hordes that will be escaping the cities when the fit hits the shan. I keep non-hybrid seed on hand and don't "mine" the farm,
4. it's GLOBAL warming. You can look out your window and say the world is flat, too. You need to look over the entire planet and see that the polar ice caps are breaking apart, Mount Kilimanjaro will not have snow on it in 50 years, deserts are getting hotter and larger, etc.

They're so powerful, they created a whole news channel to spoutthier bile - FOX news.

In the summer of 1995, my father, Russ Goodwin, and I acquired the 1945 Farmall B that my grandfather used as an overseer on a farm in Waynesboro, Georgia. After my grandfather’s death in 1955, J.P. Rollins, son of the landowner, used the tractor. In the winter 1985, while in his possession the engine block cracked and was unrepairable. He had told my father
