When it comes to Cap and Trade, Americans are not as ignorant as our legislators might wish!
As "global warming" proves fictional, those who would shackle the economy with taxes and regulations to fight mythology are thinking only of the riches they will derive at the expense of Americans who will be deluged with unnecessary taxes they can ill-afford.
June in Manhattan averaged 67.5 degrees Fahrenheit, 3.7 degrees below normal; the coldest average since 1958. The National Weather Service stated July 1: "The last time that Central Park hit 85 in May ... but not in June was back in 1903."
In Phoenix, June's high temperatures were below 100 degrees for 15 days straight, the first such June since 1913. In California's desert, Yucca Valley's June average was 83.5, 8.5 degrees below normal. Downtown Los Angeles averaged 74.5 degrees, five below normal.
Boston saw temperatures 4.7 degrees below normal. "This is the second coldest average high temp since 1872," veteran meteorologist and Weather Channel alumnus Joseph D'Aleo reports at Icecap.com. "It has been so cool and so cloudy that trees in northern New England are starting to show colors that normally first appear in September." Looking abroad, D'Aleo noted: "Southern Brazil had one of the coldest Junes in decades, and New Zealand has had unusual cold and snow again this year."
New Zealand's National Climate Center issued a June 2 news release headlined, "Temperature: Lowest Ever for May for Many Areas, Colder Than Normal for All."
The Earth's temperatures fall even as the planet spins within what global-warmists consider a thickening cloud of toxic carbon dioxide.
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's Earth System Research Laboratory at Mauna Loa, Hawaii, consistently and reliably has measured CO2 for the past 50 years. CO2 concentrations have risen steadily for a half-century.
For December 1958, the laboratory reported an atmospheric CO2 concentration of 314.67 parts per million (PPM). Flash forward to December 1998, about when global cooling reappeared. CO2 already had increased to 366.87 PPM. By December 2008, CO2 had advanced to 385.54 PPM, a significant 5.088 percent growth in one decade.
This capsizes the carbon-phobic global-warmist argument. For Earth's temperatures to sink while CO2 rises contradicts global warming as thoroughly as learning that firefighters can battle blazes by spraying them with gasoline.
