The entire planet is dried up. There are tornadoes in Australia. You know, the folks that stand beside us in Afghanistan and where we have a military base now. Those folks. They have at times laid tarps on the ground to preserve the morning dew during their droughts. Australia. It's dried up. There were fires there. Now, New Zealand is dried up. The people next door to Australia. Drought. It is SPREADING. The entire world is drying up because the USA has no Climate Crisis legislation.
And what do the folks that have to live outside of the lap of luxury get? A thought bubble over every Senator's head stating, "Wait until the next election." I don't think so.
Time marches on and the global drought continues every second of every minute of every day. Senator Reid has used two of his three strikes. He blew it on the filibuster and now is gave Senator Feinstein a rough go rather than standing at his microphone and stating, "Hey, look, we have less than forty votes for the Assault Weapons Ban, so it will be introduced as an Amendment, but, you folks have some work to do to get it passed."

Now's the time to prepare for the heat waves, (click here) heavy rains and droughts that climate change will bring, says Stanford Woods Institute's Chris Field, a noted climate researcher.

If the USA continues to believe they can pay for their way out of this by appropriating Sandy Funding they are grossly out of touch with reality while they seek to protect election territories. GET OUT THERE and talk to constituents at Town Hall Meetings about the Climate Crisis. This stuff is bad and if the USA continues to do this Australia will have crop losses that will cause suffering in that country. What then happens to our allies? This is craziness.
The monies have migrated to the upper 1% or less and they have captured some kind of footing through pressure on the electorate to cause the LACK of effective measure on climate and gun control. This is incredible. We lost have our democracy. There needs to be some real soul searching here people. Tomorrow is too late and getting later by the minute.

The Senate voted 62 to 37 Friday (click here ) in favor of constructing the Keystone XL pipeline, the controversial project that would transport heavy crude oil from Hardisty, Alberta, to Gulf Coast’s refineries.
The bipartisan amendment to the Senate budget resolution, authored by Sens. John Hoeven (R-N.D.) and Max Baucus (D-Mont.), has no binding authority....

Speaking Aug. 1 at a contentious U.S. Senate hearing on climate change, Stanford Woods Institute Senior Fellow Chris Field, an expert on climate change, offered a stark yet hopeful analogy.
Just as speeding increases the chance of having a car accident, climate change intensifies the risk of heat waves, droughts and heavy precipitation, said Field. He testified before the Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works.
"We can point clearly to the causal mechanism, but it's still difficult to predict exactly when or where the crisis - either the accident from speeding in a car or the disaster that's related to climate change - will occur, he said. "But still, we can have high confidence in the driving mechanism."...
Enough of the nonsense. NASA has found higher levels of oxygen in the upper atmospheres of this planet. The entire gaseous layer of Earth has changed. The water vapor at the surface of the planet is gone. It is in the upper troposphere. It is time to submit legislation backed by profound proof from the scientific community backed by public comment of additional scientists that are not necessarily employed by the USA government. These experts are called professors. The United Nations has one of the most qualified voices by the name of Chris Fields. Enough already.If the USA continues to believe they can pay for their way out of this by appropriating Sandy Funding they are grossly out of touch with reality while they seek to protect election territories.
