My grapes are ripe three weeks early. Just saying.

It had been longest summer on record. Not hottest, by absolute temps, but we got more than three months of weather that usually lasts for random two weeks sometime between May till September. Last year, we had no summer to speak about, nor the winter, it was autumn all year round. We're used to chaos. But I live close to nature, and knowing nothing I would bet that somehow, slowly but steady, my house had drifted a good bit south in the past couple of decades.

(NPR) Nearly a third of households in the United States have struggled to pay their energy bills, the Energy Information Administration said in a report released Wednesday...

...About one in five households had to reduce or forego food, medicine and other necessities to pay an energy bill, according to the report. "Of the 25 million households that reported forgoing food and medicine to pay energy bills, 7 million faced that decision nearly every month," the report stated...

Just wait 'til Governor Moonbeam and the Klimate Krazies get finished.


This is what the CO2 nutjobs have done in Europe.

They've raised everybody's energy prices, screwed their economies and haven't reduced greenhouse gas emissions by one iota. The whole thing has been a giant boondoggle.

There are good ways and there are bad ways of going about transitioning energy systems, no doubt about that.

In this context it's clear that global warming is GOOD.

It's cheaper to cool a house than to heat it. So hotter weather will be more affordable.

Thank God! I have a stack of tires in the back yard I've been holding off burning. Bring on the global warming!
 

It's a shame that climate "researchers" and the media have distorted reality to the point where I read articles like the bubbling lake or the rolling golf course and immediately dismiss it as more garbage from trashzines. I have no idea if lakes are really bubbling and certainly not why even if they are. But I won't believe it until I see it with my own eyes. Of course, the "Esieh Lake" site isn't actually identified in the article. The writer "dubbed" the name rather than give a location. So I can't go there even if I wanted to.

Who knows. Maybe that stuff really happens but the scareologists have ruined your chances to raise any awareness of the issues.

Regardless, whatever happens, happens.

Why bother to respond?

Have you got your plane ticket yet? Better get there soon; it'll be harder to see close to the solstice.
 
Can't go. The writer wouldn't identify the lake. Didn't you read Thor's article?

I bet you could go. Katey's a pretty reasonable person, and if you explained that you didn't believe her and needed to see this lake with your own eyes, she might give you the coordinates.

Otherwise, there's only 3 million lakes in Alaska.

I'd actually like to go on a road trip to Alaska. Visit Denali National Park. Check out the bears fishing. (There's a web cam on the internet someplace) and maybe even drive up to the northern end to sight see.

But that's for my retired years, if I make it that far.

Western end of the Brooks Range, about 26 acres in size. How hard can that be?

If you wait that long, you'll just be another one of the tourist cattle that come in summer. You won't be able to do fuck-all.
