Global Warming

Has anyone noticed that during the winter everything was blamed on Climate Change and we had a Climate Czar. Now that summer is here, it has changed back to Global Warming.

With all of their money spent and scientific studies done, why have we not heard a word about all of the asphalt parking lots, driveways and roads? Has no one ever walked out onto an asphalt parking lot on a hot sunny day or driven into a large city. Just think about it. Didn't we start having Global Warming when they started paving everything?
Then there are all of the droughts and flooding. When everything was dirt and gravel, the rainwater soaked into the soil and then evaporated slowly. Now it just runs off and we have a flood and later a drought. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to see the problem. When the number of automobiles increased global warming started but none of the genius scientists have considered that the acres of asphalt skyrocketed at the same time.

you sure hit the nail on the head.. and there are a bunch of fools that turn the great river bottom farm land that feeds our nation into shopping malls and other stuff that covers it with asphalt.

Global warming

Look back in history. Mid teens till mid 20's a lot of weather records were set. Same with early 40's, early 60's and so forth. Our weather has always run in cycles. Old timers said the winter will be as cold as the summer is hot so this winter when the polar plunges drop down on us it will change from global warming to climate change again.

Still the hottest recorded period in history was in the 1840's.

Richard is right about asphalt and heat. Often the temperature in Greenville, NC is 10 degrees higher than here only 20 miles away.

I hate to agree with Richard but it goes without saying that concrete and asphalt holds heat more than leaves and grass and it sure doesn't soak up any water.

I don't think we had cars or parking lots when the ice age ended. What caused that warm-up? Not saying concrete and asphalt aren't a contributor, but this planet underwent temperature changes before modern civilization.

Global Warming?

JMO,
If it wasn't for "Global Warming"
Earth would still be covered in GLACIERS!!!
Wonder why they melted? The Earth warmed up,not down.
This big yellow thing in the sky called the SUN....smh

Sick of hearing about it.
Moron Al Gore preached we'd be dead by now back in the 90's. Yet nothings changed.

Biden’s Money For “Green Programs” Rarely Goes To Those Causes

Passage of the Democrats’ $369 billion climate package will allow President Biden to pump billions of public money into green energy infrastructure and climate change prevention, despite failing to successfully handle green monies as vice president during the Obama administration.

White House archives show that the 2009 ‘American Recovery and Reinvestment Act included $90 billion for similar environmental measures. According to Biden’s campaign website, he oversaw the Recovery Act’s funds, which led to the loss of enormous sums of taxpayer money.
Larry Behrens of Power The Future said that Joe Biden’s record on managing energy dollars is awful. Biden was the author of the Solyndra catastrophe.
According to White House files, Biden loaned solar panel startup Solyndra $535 million in 2009 to boost renewable energy. Solyndra went bankrupt in September 2011. Thus the loan wasn’t used. This prompted a Treasury Department probe into the company’s finances.The Recovery Act allocated the DOE $42 billion to fund renewable energy infrastructure, environmental cleaning, and other climate measures. A 2011 GAO study revealed concerns about how the DOE managed government money.
The GAO reported that it was unclear whether Loan Guarantee Programs (LGP) created jobs, which was an expressed goal of the program because the DOE “lacked sufficient methods for monitoring success” and had “reporting and quality concerns” when analyzing green program job counts. The GAO determined that the government loan program favored some applicants over others.
The audit also revealed that the DOE received loan applications for at least 68 green projects but only guaranteed one, even though a number of applications, including six judged suitable for funding, were submitted five years earlier.
Over a decade later, Biden is returning to swindle taxpayers for his eco-agenda, said Behrens.
In a Sunday news statement, Biden praised the Senate Democrats’ bill. If the ‘Inflation Reduction Act’ passes Friday as expected, Biden will have four times the money for climate projects he had in 2009.
The bill doubles spending on solar and wind energy. The program will invest up to $60 billion to alleviate environmental injustice and protect low-income neighborhoods and communities of color.

Oh my goodness, I just read where Environmental Justice comes under the EPA. They have an environmental Justice Official. That means that the democrats EPA Police will get 92 billion dollars. I wonder who they will go after?
