Researchers Hope to Link Energy Prices to Global Climate Shifts
What we’ve known as “normals” for our climate during the past decade will very likely change soon. That’s because government scientists are busy determining what’s been the average temperature and precipitation for thousands of U.S. locations during the past 30-year period. Much like the U.S. Census, the re-calculation takes place once every decade to reflect recent climate trends.
The new climate “normals” will provide key information for decisions we make in the future, ranging from what we plant, what we pay for energy, and even where we take a vacation.

It’s amazing to me that so many people in the U.S., continue to keep their head in the sand, when it comes to global warming .
I haven’t been around for enough time to evaluate the condition, but ask Richard Alley from the University of Pennsylvania. His program on PBS shown in Pittsburgh, Pa. April 10,201, should remove all doubt. The 55 minute show goes into great detail to prove it. He also suggests many things that need to be done to correct the situation.
Believe it !!! and get to work to make the changes required. It will go a long way toward improving our 14 trillion dollar national debt, as well as improve life on Earth for the next generation
