lets see them dig out from all the snow that was never suppost to ever fall again because we did not listen to Al Gore and the Church of Gaia
There are plenty more from our ‘dyed in the wool’ leftists Down Under. We had stuff like Perth in WA would become a ghost town, our dams would never be near full ever again, Truly the list goes on and on and the Leftist have no shame, no embarrassment and no conscience. We have just been through a time long written into our poetry of “droughts and flooding rains,” Now we find the same slimy mob holding up much needed business and infrastructure to the tune of $65 billion dollars. Traitors!
I was just watching a episode of IN SEARCH OF its all about a New Ice Age and it shows the harsh winter of 1976/77 that hit the eastern section of Borth America of tempetures in the double digets of below zero and Bufalo N.Y. which got 44 consecutive days of snow
For some reason, the Green movement thinks winters like that would be a good thing. Life on planet earth flourishes as it gets warmer. Not colder.
I lived in Saratoga Springs, NY (north of Albany) and I remember the bitter cold of that winter. I was stationed there in the Navy and when given options for my next duty station I chose Charleston, SC, to get out of the cold!
