Global warming facts prove scary
To the Editor,
Re: True science on climate change is never settled, Letters, Jan 17.
Too bad Randy O’Donnell doesn’t recall the famous line used by Jack Webb in the TV series Dragnet: “Just the facts.”
I’d suggest he read and comprehend the following article from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, the real experts: http://ca.news.yahoo.com/blogs/geekquinox/september-2012-tied-warmest-record-across-globe-173157042.html.
It reads: “September 2012 also marks the 36th consecutive September and 331st consecutive month with a global temperature above the 20th century average.”
That line alone should scare the bejesus out of anyone.
Ronald Reagan said that a recession was when your neighbour lost his job and a depression was when you lost yours.
I suspect O’Donnell will stop denying when cotton is growing in his yard.
