Is see reports like “hottest summer in 100 years”. So people go crazy. Well what happened 100 years ago? Wild fires are a normal phenomenon that have always happened. We now have people living in those areas so it becomes an issue.

The cities in the SW suck up water like crazy. Well it’s a desert. They build cities in a desert and wonder why water is in short supply.

The Midwest was covered in glaciers 12,000 years ago. I’d say things have warmed up a bit since then. Mammoth farts maybe?

@carpediem I hate to be that guy. But do you know the difference between these two statements "hottest summer in 100 years" and "Hottest summer for 100 years"? 😂
