Extreme weather could cause a massive economic recession 'like we've never seen before'

https://www.foxnews.com/science/extr...een-before.amp

The most interesting thing about this article (besides being factual) is that it was posted by Faux “News”, at the 5th grade writing level that its audience is capable of understanding. Next thing you know, they’ll be touting some BS policy by Donny’s corrupt administration that is “fighting climate change”.

Global Warming is NOW!

We face another horrible drought after the drought (April - November) 2018. Since then, the Black Forest is totally weakened also because of these destructive bugs, we call them "Borkenkäfer".

I am no nihilist, pessimist or whatever fundamental -ist, but I can tell you that the Black Forest is in agony. And this is no exaggeration, folks.

The last time it rained was about four weeks ago and the weather update tells us that there will be no rain, absolutely no raindrop in this month, no rain at least until the end of April, and in addition to that temperatures close to 30°C.

Two "Consequences" quotes (Godley/Creme) - enjoy if you may:

"In nature, there are neither rewards nor punishments, in nature there are consequences." (Ingersoll)

"It is not a good sign when a goldfish commits suicide."

Don't worry - as long as I have meditation and music.... and beer, I am fine...

Beer!
Yes next to Bourbon God's gift to humanity!

We are once again having a early spring here. Planted about a month sooner then in years past. Uncovered my AC last week, it was close to 80*F (26*C) during the afternoon.

I'm really out of 'fucks' to give with regard to Kaiser Klownschtick von Drumpf and his rabid cult followers. We have those Borkenhafers (Bark Beetles) killing pine forests all over the Western U.S. Then the wildfires come.

AGW (Anthropogenic Global Warming) is a political issue.Tony Heller has been killin' it for years, as have many others. It's amazing it's even still a thing.

He actually quotes graphs and newspaper articles from the last century to give a perspective on just how silly this whole thing has been from the git-go.

https://realclimatescience.com/

And his videos absolutely pound the point home. Sometimes some other AGW apologists will try to "debunk" him in their own youtube videos and that is when the fun really begins.

The most interesting thing about the article is its use of the word "could". Isn't that what the OP is actually about?

One would have to be mentally ill to deny that the earth is getting warmer.

Or have a firm belief that their deity will make all thing right with prayers. All well and good, wait, what if they are mistaken?
