The temp right now is 35 and expected to go up another degree or two... Tuesday, we're supposed to be back in the mid 20s, but only for a day or two.

No need to wait. Just add a solar powered pump. In any case a 10m rise should be coming right up.“It is no use trying to 'see through' first principles.

Earlier today it was only 15C. It finally warmed up to 17C. Woohoo!“It is no use trying to 'see through' first principles. If you see through everything, then everything is transparent. But a wholly transparent world is an invisible world. To 'see through' all things is the same as not to see.”

Don't worry ... according to the newest updated models of climatologists, you can expect 4 other years full of heat records after this yearTamsin (Lost Girl): "I am the Harbinger of Death. I arrive on winds of blessed air. Air that you no longer deserve."

What do you think will happen when China’s northern plains become uninhabitable resulting in the death of 20% of the population and 40% drop in their food production?“It is no use trying to 'see through' first principles.

If Trump and his GOP are still in power in the USA at this time I expect thoughts and prayers from the US government for the people in China (combined with continued denial with regards to the human causes of global warming)Tamsin (Lost Girl): "I am the Harbinger of Death.

I think it won't happen until at least 2030. Trump will be long gone by then. What I do expect is for China and Russia to get into a war as China annexes parts of Siberia. I also expect the Chinese government to fall and be replaced by something else just as authoritarian. I am hoping that the US and Canada join peacefully in a solar/renewable energy powered hydrology union aimed at redistributing the uneven rainfall as best as possible to maintain food production and habitability.“It is no use trying to 'see through' first principles.

Can't be president from prison.For there is [another] kind of violence, slower but just as deadly, destructive as the shot or the bomb in the night. This is the violence of institutions -- indifference, inaction, and decay. This is the violence that afflicts the poor, that poisons relations between men because their skin has different colors. - Bobby Kennedy (Mindless Menance of Violence)
