The annual State of the Climate report is out, and it’s ugly. Record heat, record sea levels, more hot days and fewer cool nights, surging cyclones, unprecedented pollution, and rapidly diminishing glaciers.
The U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) issues a report each year compiling the latest data gathered by 413 scientists from around the world. It’s 288 pages, but we’ll save you some time. Here’s a review, in six charts, of some of the climate highlights from 2014.

Not to mention, last winter here in the Northeast, the excessive cold was due to global warming (odd I know), and now the excessive heat, which in the North, so far this year has been anything but, it's even more proof of global warming. I'll tell you what. All I need to do is come up with a way to convince a boat load of idiot citizenry that diametrically opposing measures are proof of one single theory and I'll be a billionaire..

It's perfect.
