According to IPCC analysis of GISS data, the total alleged temperature increase from 1850 – 1899 to 2001 – 2005 is 0.76°C. Any ecosystem that can’t handle a temperature swing that small was dying anyways. Frankly it’s like the reports of polar bears drowning because they can’t swim - I can’t bring myself to care about animals that are not fit to live.
That's how I love to respond to those recurring "You must give up your freedom/tax dollars RIGHT NOW on [insert issue]. It's.....FOR THE CHEEEEEEEELRUN!" My response is "Who wants to have a child so weak that he can't live without even MORE power ceded to the government? What could someone that frail possibly accomplish when they grow up? Better to just let that one die as comfortably as possible and just start over. We can make more, you know!"
