Climate has been "changing" with increasing temperatures for 1.5 Centuries now.

If their projections are correct, one could do a historic correlation showing that each of their claims make have some evidence.

So far, all I hear is a lot of "ifs" and "maybes"...

Uh-oh alert.  From today's AOL News page:

"A record number of babies were born in the USA in 2007, according to early federal data released Wednesday ...

"Demographers have been monitoring gradual increases in recent years; data for 2006, which won't be made final until September, show a 3% increase over 2005. That's the largest single-year increase since 1989.

"I suspect this is the beginning of a new kind of baby boom" says demographer Arthur Nelson of the University of Utah in Salt Lake City."

Here's the other part of this news flash:  All 4,315,000 kids born in the US last year will eventually want their own air-conditioning, their own central heating, their own places to live, their own Chilean sea bass flown in from 5,000 miles away, and eventually, of course, their own automobiles.

So please explain to me again how we plan to offset all of that additional greenhouse gas production to support all of that additional consumption.  Sigh.  

Regardless of our most heroic efforts, we're doomed until we can bring the birth rate back into balance with the death rate.  Sad but true.

Grist, when will you add exponential population growth to your list of high-priority topics needing open discussion?

"Demographers have been monitoring gradual increases in recent years; data for 2006, which won't be made final until September, show a 3% increase over 2005. That's the largest single-year increase since 1989.

Kids know what's good for them.

Hot summers and mild winters.

Be fruitful, and multiply, gremlins..
