Oh, sure, next thing you’ll be telling me a warmer Siberia would be a good thing.

“The headline makes it sound like that would be a bad thing.”
Yep. Sounds like a feature, not a bug, to me.

That should save California’s water-starved agriculture, and still not deprive the Delta Smelt.

This sort of thing is perfectly acceptable to me. I will be a half block from the Atlantic when this happens and my lot will be worth much more than it is now.

I agree, that was my first thought “And that is bad?”
To: Czar
Is there a downside to this? Yes, it won't be happening for millions of years. (And unlike Nancy Pelosi, I know the difference between a million and a thousand.)

Suppose there’s a cave painting somewhere around DC warning of the dangers of Global Cooling sucking up all the water?

Now, THAT is the best news I’ve had all day. Please, please, please let’s have LOTS of global warming. Just make sure the critters are in the House and Senate with no buses or limos to bail them out.

All of the D.C. buildings, monuments, museums, etc. should be moved to the Black Hills of South Dakota.

“All of the D.C. buildings, monuments, museums, etc. should be moved to the Black Hills of South Dakota.”
Oh, I don’t know, with all the monuments under water, it might be like Atlantis (As long as Arlinton stays above water.) Besides, the Black Hills are beautiful as they are.

Or the Badlands?
I'd rather than the really valuable stuff was as far inland as possible -- to protect from seaborne attacks.
To: Aroostook25
Okay, I’ll give you the Badlands, or any place in Ne. :-)
