We went through an unprecedented (state wide!) freeze, in TX, earlier this year.

Our Hill Country cactus are blooming like crazy....much more than usual. Just a beautiful sight.

So, by their pretzel logic.....the freeze caused gorebull warming....which is causing all of the cacti to bloom.

🙃

Lefties put a negative spin on everything.

My thoughts exactly. They can even turn beautiful cactus blooms into something ominous.

“... What is it, 8 years away now?”

I don’t know for sure. To be sure, we should contact Greta.

My contention is that the covid is the new climate change for the Marxist Left.

Just substitute the words and resulting symptoms and you will see that this corona virus "pandemic" is right out of the democRATic playbook.

The scheme works the same way.

Instill fear into the population to manipulate it and gain control.

That's why the Left will drag out the covid problem, including the vaccines, for as long as they can play it.

Another phenomenon of global warming is global cooling.

".... Can they not just pluck one of theses branches off, put it in a flower pot and grow their own Saguaros?...."

It is a crime in Arizona to dig up or mutilate desert cactus, especially saguaros.

experts suspect it may be an example of how the warming environment is impacting even the oldest of plants.

"Experts," "suspect," "may be..." What a load of carp! These idiots look for anything to blame on global warming, er, I mean "climate change."

This story is a load of crap.

We live in southern Arizona and this is the coolest spring that I can remember in 25+ years. We made it all the way to the end of May before our first 100 degree day. Doors and windows still open in the morning with temps around 67 degrees at 6 AM.

It’s more likely caused by UFO’s than ‘warming’... or lizard farts...

Bingo! Liberalism is a mental disorder. There more at play here.

Been a wet cool spring here in West Texas and we’re having a heck of a catus and wildflower bloom right now.

The fact is that the earth's climate is not and never has been constant. Man's attempt to stop or disrupt natural climate cycles is vain, presumptious and stupid!

If it ain’t climate change than most likely caused by Covid…

You're prophetic! Just yesterday, Dr. Fauci and the CDC put out a directive that all Saguaros will wear a double mask until 70% of Saguaros have been vaccinated. LOL!!
