Pirate's Cove

Remember around 15 years ago, when the alarmists were still somewhat rational, and they came up with the brilliant plan to “spread awareness”, rather than actually taking action in their own lives? And, if Something Wasn’t Done, winters would be a thing of the past and we would all burn? Flash forward to today, and, nothing has changed

Two new documentary movies are due for broader release this month in the United States. Two movies that want to save the world, but, if their trailers are anything go by, their proffered solutions are radically different to one another. Carbon Nation is about technofix, “We already have the technology to combat most of the worst-case scenarios of climate change, and it is very good business as well.” Whereas I Am is about community; “contrary to conventional thinking, cooperation and not competition, may be nature’s most fundamental operating principle.” To grossly generalise, one movie explores product, whilst the other people. Of course, the real solution will. no doubt, be an intimate blend of the two.

Both movies discuss ways that Someone Else can take action, preferably at the hands of Big Daddy Government. But, excuse me for being rather skeptical, but, doesn’t showing movies use quite a bit of power, generating vast amounts of CO2? All the people heading to the theaters in their fossil fueled vehicles, electricity for the movie house, and so on? Perhaps instead of doing this, they could all live their lives like it is 1299, like they want everyone else to do. Meanwhile

As record-breaking cold weather strikes throughout North America, dropping snow and bringing cities to a standstill, humans certainly aren’t the only ones feeling the chill. In Northern Mexico, the lowest temperatures in 60 years have claimed the lives of thirty-five animals housed at the Serengeti Zoo, located in the state of Chihuahua. The incident raises concerns not only of the impacts severe weather on vulnerable species, but of the quality of protection received by animals confined to zoos throughout the world.

You do know what caused this, right?

Regardless of whether negligence is ultimate deemed to have contributed to the animals’ deaths or not, such an incidence raises concerns as the the quality of protection being offer to zoo animals throughout the world, particularly as weather extremes become an all too frequent occurrence.

And the phrase “weather extremes” is part of the Warmists’ anthropogenic global warming lexicon these days, because someone, say, Kevin Aylward, drove a car, and those greenhouse gases, made it so hot it became cold. Or, it could be President Obama’s fault

The rest of the menu for the 100 or so guests at the White House bash is tailgate-friendly even if served inside the Executive Mansion: bratwurst, kielbasa, cheeseburgers, deep-dish pizza and Buffalo wings with sides of German potato salad, twice-baked potatoes and assorted chips and dips.

Besides the fact that this totally goes against Michelle Obama’s eat better nanny-stateism, eating meat is bad for globull warming. Remember, though, in Liberal World, it is all about someone else changing their behavior, not the person who is pushing the meme.
