And it WILL get worse as the climate scientists are predicting, at least, 7 years of increasing planet warming.
Veteran reef divers today come out of the water crying because of the dead, bleached coral. This is caused by excess CO2 in the ocean and in the upper atmosphere, which is caused by the increased earth's population needing ICE vehicles to move around using fossil fuels. Also, vehicles used in agriculture and industry.
One small recent fact that is appropriate to this discussion is that Orlando has for the 1st time recorded temps of 98 deg for 5 days recently, today maybe the 6th. Global warming increased SLOWLY after Al Gore tried to make the US aware of it. Now today, it IS HERE right in Orlando like staring into the barrel of a robber's gun - it is THAT obvious. Many will pretend that the robber does not exist. Just go outside today and walk or jog around the block in the afternoon - notice that you will come back with severe sweating. Just being outside today here is considered medically dangerous. 20 years ago do you remember the TV people warning everyone to stay hydrated and everyone carrying a water bottle.......NO. That intuitively tells you that Global Warming has increased in recent years. And next summer will be worse and so on. The only possible solution is a rapid trend to electric vehicles in the next 4 years.

Amazing. One note Johnny continues on.
90 % of coral worldwide has died in a time frame of about 20 years.
Love to see proof of that claim. And I mean legitimate proof, not something from "Chicken Little the Earth is Warming monthly"
98 deg for 5 days recently, today maybe the 6th
Yes! 5 days out of the last 4 1/2 million years. Sounds like "proof" to me
Al Gore tried to make the US aware of it.
To paraphrase the Bard---"Global Warming is a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury but signifying nothing"
20 years ago do you remember the TV people warning everyone to stay hydrated and everyone carrying a water bottle.......NO.
20 years ago do you remember everyone carrying a cell phone? NO---cell phones must be causing global warming (Post hoc ergo propter hoc)
The only possible solution is a rapid trend to electric vehicles in the next 4 years.
Yep---a solution waiting for an actual problem
