Complaining

OVER THE PAST SEVERAL WEEKS I've been steadily complaining about the temperature being a hundred degrees every day, a reasonable compalint, if I do say so myself. Now maybe its time to start complaining about the temp being a hundred and five every day. maybe, jsut maybe, its peaking out, and will soon retreat a bit, this miserabe, horrible, climate change heat wave. Its even more frustrating when the sky gets all dark and overcast, thunder starts to roll constantly....hour....after...hour...but not a drop of rain falls on the dead brown grass and slumping trees. But I keep hearing reports of spot showers in surrounding areas, hit and miss, and that encourages me to think that the water table is being at least sporadically nourished throughout the area. The widespread, certain, global nature of climate change has never been as apparent as it is now, with wildfires sweeping across Europe and the western United States, having recently done the same in the Amazon and Australia. Scientists are shocked at how fast climate change is happening. Its as kfi the world is threatening to burn down. Eventually, and sooner rather than later, the entire lower forty eight U.S.A. could be at risk for wildfires. Infuriatening, President Biden has a multi billion dollar climate change package ready to go to the Senate, having already passed the House, but is dead on arrival, as they say, because of, you guessed it, Republicans. Becasue of Republicans climate change is progressing essentially unopposed. The suicide of the human species, thanks to the Grand Ole Republican party. Biden's plan would put billions into solar and wind energy, which together already make up twelve percent of American energy supplies, and would implement a whole host of good, effective, job producing, economy boosting climate change fighting mesaures and projects. But the Republicans in the Senate would rather do nothing, save the money, let nature take care of itself, and wait for the Lord to return, or whatever insane projects they have in mind. Proof that Noam Chomsky is quite correct when he asserts that the Republican party is the most dangerous, harmful organization in human history.
