Unless we agree to the climate change bill:
If the Senate doesn’t pass a bill to cut global warming, Democratic Sen. Barbara Boxer says, there will be dire results: droughts, floods, fires, loss of species, damage to agriculture, worsening air pollution and less money to favored, leftist interest groups who harp on the environment.
She says there’s a huge upside, however, if the Senate does act: millions of clean-energy jobs, reduced reliance on foreign oil and less pollution for the nation’s children and puppies, if you’re going to really make the pitch, make it bold!.
Boxer is engaged in her biggest con job ever. The stakes couldn’t be higher as she faces one of the toughest high-profile acts of her lengthy career: getting Congress to sign off on historic legislation to lower greenhouse-gas emissions. (Ed. Note: Content edited to bring it in line with reality)
Meanwhile…back in reality:
Chicago’s average temperature from June 1 through July 10 has been 67.5 degrees. This is the coolest since 1992, which followed the eruption of Mt. Pinatubo in 1991 north of Manila. That eruption spread a layer of dust aloft around the world that cut back on the amount of solar radiation. This year’s average summer-to-date temperature is 2.1 degrees cooler than the normal of 69.6 degrees and only 0.9 degrees above the 66.6 recorded in 1992.
This year’s average temperature as of July 10 was 2.1 degrees cooler than the normal of 69.6 degrees and only 0.9 degrees above the 66.6 recorded in 1992.
Its a hoax, and the Democrats are determined to saddle us with a massive, money-sucking bill to combat the hoax. It doesn’t get more “through the looking glass” than this.
