if global warming continues, northeastern states will lose the brook trout, snow, snow-mobiling, sledding, skiing, snowboarding, ice-fishing, and all winter activities. I don't know about you, but I live for winter and want to do something. Do it for ourselves and our future generations.

If you take positive action, you can be part of the solution instead of complaining about the problem. Try, in a reasonable fashion, to help educate the public about this issue. Don't argue with those who are close minded. You'll only get frustrated. Support green programs and use them in your own life. Actions speak a whole lot louder than words for the most part.

So, YOU'RE the one causing all the global warming. Don't you realize that by releasing all that CO2 during the time when most plants are dormant that you are overtaxing the environment? Every one of those activities requires the consumption of excess fuels, either directly like in snow-mobiling, or indirectly , such as the driving needed to travel in order to take part in those activities - often in one of those spawn of Satan SUVs!. And you do it just for fun.
You sick basturd!! What else do you do for fun - pull the ears off of bunnies?
If you truly believed in your cause, you would sacrifice by staying indoors and using as little energy as possible.

Global warming is just a scam to make money. Gore has made millions .
Your problem is a natural problem. In Texas we normally have a high pressure over us . This year a low pressure area hung up over Texas and we had a high pressure on each side so it would not move out. This week we have started drying up. The high pressure should move back in soon and things should return more to normal.

I have found [through more years than we'll discuss here] that it is nearly impossible to change the world at large... only your little corner of it. Take what knowledge you have , build on that, and show others, through example, some alternatives to living a carbon expensive lifestyle.

apparently, the polar bears will die out if global warming continues. The ice land in the arctics is their hunting ground for food. without it - no seals to catch.
oh. the polar bears.

Depends on the meaning of what "IT" is.
Yes good bye to my hard earned cash with the ever increasing carbon taxes.

The ski industry in general is very worried about global warming, and taking steps to fight it.

By the way, Republicans know global warming is real, too.
"Former Republican House Speaker Newt Gingrich challenged fellow conservatives to stop resisting scientific evidence of global warming"
"Pat Robertson (very conservative Christian leader) 'It is getting hotter and the ice caps are melting and there is a build up of carbon dioxide in the air. We really need to do something on fossil fuels.”
Ford Motor Company CEO William Clay Ford, Jr. "I believe there is now more than enough evidence of climate change to warrant an immediate and comprehensive - but considered - response. Anyone who disagrees is, in my view, still in denial."
"The science of global warming is clear. We know enough to act now. We must act now."
James Rogers, CEO of Charlotte-based Duke Energy.
"The overwhelming majority of atmospheric scientists around the world and our own National Academy of Sciences are in essential agreement on the facts of global warming and the significant contribution of human activity to that trend."
Russell E. Train, Republican, former environmental official under Presidents Nixon and Ford
"I agree with you (Gore) that the debate over climate change is over."
Rep. Dennis Hastert, Republican, Illinois
"Global warming is real, now, and it must be addressed."
Lee Scott, CEO, Wal-Mart
"Our nation has both an obligation and self-interest in facing head-on the serious environmental, economic and national security threat posed by global warming."
Senator John McCain, Republican, Arizona
"I'm trying to learn [about greenhouse gases and global warming]. The more I learn, the bigger believer I become."
Senator Lindsay Graham, Republican, South Carolina
“DuPont believes that action is warranted, not further debate."
Charles O. Holliday, Jr., CEO, DuPont

You may need to move further north. In your lifetime, New England will become more like the Carolinas are now.

Be an optimists. You'll be happier, live longer, be richer and benefit others and become a Republican.
You'll accomplish nothing with your current attitude.
