Lots of folks on different sides of the fence regarding the cause of climate change......but it seems to me the changes are happening. Next Sunday our church has a speaker from the DNR at one of the forums they provide. I want to offer up the statement on his presentation: -------------------------------------"Experts predict that if global warming continues at the present rate, by 2050 Minnesota will have weather and temperatures similar to Kansas now. Minnesotan's quality of living may be seriously impacted. Warmer temperatures will impact water quality and water-based recreation, fish species and indigenous trees will decline, insect infestatuibs will increase, and bigger and more erratic storms will be common."....the statement goes on to say that: "if climate change is not seriously addressed worldwide and what we as individuals and a society can do to slow the emissions of greenhouse gases contributing to global warming".
-------------------------------------------------------- I am a little taken back by the statement of time until MN turns into Kansas. Only 30 years?? I do think the rate of climate change is increasing. Lots of changes as said above are occurring IMO. Who (and what) is causing the change is open for debate.....but changes in climate are not as debatable (IMO). I would guess that the DNR presenter is going to churches and schools....."educating" (I know some will say "brainwashing") our youth. Anyway.........discussion. (Stu - you may not need to move South......South is coming to you! )

I wonder if he/she is being paid overtime to work on Sunday?
Tom, I got to agree that weather is changing. I am not sure what we can do about it that will make a significant difference. We need fuel to live and grow food. Perhaps limiting worldwide population growth is part of the answer.

I saw something on TV about the same thing some 20 years ago. Only thing is they compared WI to Florida weather. Can't say I firmly believe it but I can say in my life time I have seen WI getting warmer and less snow in the winter. I can remember back in the 70's not wondering if there would be tracking snow for the opener or rifle season, but how much there would be. Not very often now we get any if much that time of the year.

That has the potential to lower the population. ..might be some other bad side affects, but sacrifices must be made (not by us though )

Snowmobile sales are terrible, that being said I am not sure the higher temps are all man made.

I'd give it consideration if it wasn't being led by the crooks and communists of the world.

5 years ago you would have posted Global Warming. Now it's climate change.
I think it is more a political movement than a save the planet movement.
If the earth is getting warmer, I don't think they can prove it is man made. The earth has gone through warmer and cooler periods forever.
I don't think carbon monoxide is a pollutant. We all exhale it. Plants love it.
If my church hosted an event like this, I would expect them to have opposing views presented. If it was one sided, I'd think about a different church.

Must be put on by a different church than the one paying for all of the anti evolution billboards I'm seeing in central MN. Dinosaurs didn't exist and the skeletons are fabricated by those who want to destroy the church...don't ya know

The first words of the topic are: "EXPERTS PREDICT". I am going to ask......"which experts are you referring to". (Al Gore?, BH Obama?) I am wary of the "EXPERTS"......as too many have a politcal motive.
As Reagan pointed out.....several years ago it was called "global warming"......now the politically correct term is "climate change".
Down in OZ.....the military has been flying aircraft that emit a huge, wide plume(s) that are placed in a parallel and criss-cross pattern. It's been said that some of the "plume" is aluminum based......and as such they are able to reflect some of the sunlight and keep it cooler. They really do blanket the valley at times with these plumes......and they have done this for many years. Never much for news on it....unless you go looking for it.

The climate change crowd is the eugenics crowd in disguise. You can follow it backwards from here to global warming, peak oil, global cooling, and so forth back to eugenics.

Here ya go. Al Gore is asking for 15 trillion dollars to fix a problem we can't prove exists, nor quantify whether we've fixed it. He's lined up a council of scoundrels from investment banks, infrastructure companies, and do-good foundation arms of the world's elite to save us from the mother nature. dailycaller.com/2017/04/25/al-gores-new-group-demands-15-trillion-to-fight-global-warming/This reminds me of the CEO of Caterpillar standing next to Obama championing his stimulus bill and how "CEOs said it'd be good for America." That dirt bag was next to him championing that shit because it'd mean Caterpillar could lease out a mountain of machines to facilitate Obama's make-work projects.
