Call it “global warming,” call it “climate change,” call it whatever you want, but it’s here and it is unprecedented. Senator Jim Inhofe’s Oklahoma can expect potentially catastrophic flooding today. Maybe that is simply God’s inalterable plan for the Dust Bowl state, but I think the citizens of Oklahoma might want a senator who is interested in investigating the cause of these economically devastating changes in their climate. Heat and moisture records are being broken all over the country. It’s 44 degrees warmer than usual on Lake Superior. It was 94 degrees in parts of South Dakota yesterday. Spring came at least three weeks early here in eastern Pennsylvania.
Either we do something or we’re going to broil.
