'The southern U.S. will become almost uninhabitable.â€
The nation’s top climatologist, NASA’s James Hansen, has a new paper out — and he has been speaking out. At 350.org’s Moving Planet event in New York on Saturday, he said:
“Climate change — human-made global warming — is happening. It is already having noticeable impacts…. If we stay on with business as usual, the southern U.S. will become almost uninhabitable.â€
Hansen also has a new paper out on climate change in which he says:
It is time for all of us to get Tea-Party-angry about what our political system has become and about the intergenerational injustice being perpetrated on young people.

What's this guy talking about, the South becoming "uninhabitable"?
I mean, isn't that already the case in large patches of the South, where elitist northeastern liberals have migrated down there, polluting it and rendering it unsuitable for the mellow, laid back, comfortable life it used to present?

Oh Frank, we cannot change the rotation of the earth, we cannot change earthquakes, tornado's,Volcano's erupting, hurricanes or other Earth system disasters, about all we mortals can do is to ADAPT to things out of our control.
Did Humans cause the depressions dust bowl, the Potato Famine, the Gay Seagulls in San Francisco 10 years ago??? We did not cause the ice ages, Salt Lake in UTAH, or the Dead Sea.
We can manage the earth as it changes but regardless what we do we are not GOD and force the Earth into submission to our needs.
We must work with the tools we have, Israel managed to turn the sand into gardens by planting millions of trees, but outside that area the land is baked clay and awesome stretches with no inhibition what so ever.
There use to be huge cities that had to be fed and watered for humans to survive. We keep finding huge city's out in nowhere that a one time the climate had to have been much different then today.
China has areas that at one time had herbivores running about that is now nothing but sand and rocks.
The most successful Adaption I have heard of is the ESCOMOS that adapted to the worse climate on Earth.
Instead of trying to place the blame on civilization, we must adapt to the problems that climate causes. We must work with the Earth, this is our home, it is up to us to adapt to natural changes.
In other words we need more damage control, more what to do IF. The dried up lake beds in Texas bother me, the strange outbreaks of disease with our food that so far no one knows why or how come.
I was impressed that a computer game solved a long time problem with in the medical comunity that no computer could solve. It was the brains of the players using technology that opened a door that may solve quite a few medical mysteries.
Working with science and the tools to do so is our best bet, will not surprise me if some 9 year old gamer solves a huge mystery when presented as a game.
The key to human survival is within the new generations the youth, not by ageing industrialists or old time scientists that were taught with a slide rule and set in their ways.
As we keep aborting humans , we are throwing away the lives and brains of the very people that could be our future of life on plant Earth.

You poor, poor bastard. My eyes caught 'ESCEMOS' on the screen and I jumped past it for sanity's sake.

Exactly
-
Many parts of the SouthWest of the US are already uninhabitable but this is due to the influx of illegal aliens and drug cartels from mexico, not glowbull warming.

Vesta, we can do all that shit and more at headquarters. You're just not privy to it yet.

BTW, I agree with the DUmmie. I also think they should, to save themselves, start getting the rest of their liberal friends and start a mass exodus from the South and start heading North. I see it as the only way they can save themselves from the impending disaster. We conservatives will stay down here for as long as we can to hold down the fort. Liberals, for the love of God, SAVE YOURSELVES!

That sounds like a plan. :II:

Thank goodness the great Hansen has said this. Now the south will be cooler and get all the rain it needs. Hanses's predictions and future events have a -.9999 correlation factor.

Run for your lives. Go somewhere safe like the South side of Chicago or maybe hitch a ride with Sean Penn to Venezuela. Whatever you do, stay out of the South, USA. You have been warned.

The only way the southern US will become almost uninhabitable is if the "ruling elite" make it impossible for the rest of us to afford the energy to cool our houses.

Whenever I visit my parents I always like to read their local newspaper. Once I was reading the write-in section that is somewhat like letters to the editor and got a good laugh. The letter writer wrote said that she was writing to compliment the generosity and niceness of the local people. She said that she had been visiting from New York and was just heading home when she had a flat tire. As she stood on the edge of the road looking over the situation three young men in a pick-up truck showed up and offered to help. As she watched they went to work and changed the flat for her. When they were done she asked if she owed them any thing. They told her no because there is nothing that they like more than helping a Yankee go home.
I'm almost positive that I've heard a joke that is very similar, but the the letter writer didn't seem to be writing it as a joke.

Sorry, but if I recall correctly it was 60's Nuclear war, 70's Ice age return, 80's Acid rain, 90's Ozone hole, 00's Asteroids and 10's Globull warming that were going to wipe the infection known as man off mother gaia. :whatever:

I think that's fairly accurate except for the "10's Globull warming" part. We had a couple of cold snaps so the warming part fizzled out and they changed the boogeyman to Global Climate Change. Pretty smart actually. If it's too cold: Global Climate Change. If it's too hot: Global Climate Change. If it's too wet: Global Climate Change. If it's too dry: Global Climate Change. It's the answer to everything. Probably even to how many licks it takes to get to the Tootsie Roll Center of a Tootsie Pop.

I can see the point, due to the anti-southern attitude many northerners and westerners display, but I'd trade 2 southern liberals for 1 northern conservative any day of the week.

DUmmies seem to think they live in a bad science fiction movie and they are Jeff Goldblum or Julia Roberts. Every day it is a new end of the world story to get "wee wee'd" up about.

Algore's human-caused global warming is so discredited, nutcase nadin won't adopt it for her apocalypse du jour.

Something tells me that said NY liberal might not have recognized some humor. We do the same thing here in West by God Virginia when we have to help out a buckeye. Oh, we will change the tire, or make sure the car gets to a garage, but we gotta get a zinger in.

I read two paragraphs then scrolled down and saw it kept going and going. One word popped into my head "Vesta!" then I scrolled to the left and sure enough.
Your post made it worth it!
If they ever do another Star Trek movie with the quickly dwindling original cast I want James T. Kirk to scream out "Vessssstaaaaa!"

It was vesta's post that cause that bowel-emptying agonizing pain, not the DUmmies. Although I think vesta posts at DU under the user name nadinbrezhinski or something like that.

Just more anti-Southern ethnic bullshit.
Just remember, it doesn't matter if the rednecks have to flee north because liberals believe in open borders for the south.

May be true but I bet they don't let us have welfare checks, foodstamps, free healthcare, in state tuition and all those other freebies those from farthet south get.....and hell, they haven't even granted us US citizenship since the last time they invaded us.
