Michael Bloomberg On Global Warming And Terrorism
NEW YORK mayor Michael Bloomberg - that’s his name on all those electronic money market news terminals - is speaking on global warming.
Says he: “Terrorists kill people. Weapons of mass destruction have the potential to kill an enormous amount of people, but global warming in the long term has the potential to kill everybody.”
Scared? Terrified? Terrified of the terrorists? Terrified of the temperature?
The clincher to a brilliant argument: “No scientist knows for sure what’s going to happen, but you don’t want to wait to find out.”
Terrified yet?
Update: The risk of a fatal heatwave in the UK within ten years is high, but overall global warming may mean fewer deaths due to temperature, a report says.
A seriously hot summer between now and 2017 could claim more than 6,000 lives, the Department of Health report warns.

So, it’s the fault of christian fundamentalists that the mints are smaller.
I always maintained that religion was at the root of all the world’s troublles.

The root cause of the environmental declines we are facing throughout the world is a fulfillment of Bible prophecy. Once one-fourth part of the earth is destroyed (Re.6:7-8) we will move forward to the next Seal events, followed by Trumpet events, followed by Plague events. The earth is on a downhill slid; it will not recover. The first four Trumpet events will destroy an additional one-third part (Re.8:7-12).

I’m sure that Fox’s glacier Mints are smaller than they used to be. The damn bear is now struggling to stay on the fiddly things.
How much more proof do you people need?

Are there polar bears in the New York Zoo?

But what about the polar bears? Is no one concerned about the poor polar bears!! Their little cube of ice is melting, and soon they’ll fall in the water. I know it’s true - I’ve seen photographs.
