You will be dead before the stuff hits the fan, assuming stuff is going to hit the fan. Your kids, grandkids, I can’t speak for them.

The Mississippi River is in a near-record drought and will raise the cost of many items including food for US citizens and will increase food insecurity at countries beyond the US borders.

And I have probably NOT thought of every problem!

Speaking of flatulence, I do my part in the contribution of well digested food to produce a quantity when there are no cows around to blame it on. Like I said before, I have no control over global warming or global cooling, so I see no reason to be concerned about a few warmer or colder degrees in the weather that might/MIGHT happen in the next 20 years of my life. When you all get done with your climate changing and increase the temps up North a few degrees during the winter, I might move back to the woods. This flat, sandy state is kind of boring to look at, but I enjoy the warm weather.

Supercharged? Really? There have been several cat4 and cat5 hurricanes that have hit Florida in the past. This has been researched. Hurricane intensity might increase in the future. Might increase. Frequency has not increased. Please stop with the nonsense.

The ones that hang out with big oil, industrialists and major polluters. You're right.
