Comparing the Gulf of Mexico's highest temperature with that of today. Comparing a world
map of rising temperatures with that of today. I further believe that here in Florida we will be able to FEEL the increased summer HEAT in 5 years.
Well, feel free to go right on believing that. It's not going to happen, but in a free country I'll defend your right to believe any fantasy you want. Now, if you will, please explain how hurricanes (a WEATHER event), homeowner's insurance (a business decision), extinctions and speciation (which have been going on for over a billion years), and the temperature of a small body of water in comparison to the total oceans on Earth have the slightest bearing on CLIMATE change cycles over the last 4 million years. Yep, same old, same old......
