More on coverage of NOAA global warming warnings
Here’s MSNBC’s report. It emphasizes the pending water woes of the nation. It points out the need for water to produce energy, citing hydro and nuclear plants. They overlook the immense water needs of ethanol plants plus the water used to grow the crops in the first place.
One co-author of the report says humans still have time to act..or not.
Here’s a British press report, written to preview today’s NOAA report.
NON-BELIEVERS
Expect doubt of global warming to be upheld by Senator Imhofe. Well, maybe it is warmer but it isn’t our fault, so what’s the worry?

They seem to be losing the battle for the public’s opinion, recent surveys show about 3/4 of American adults believe the government should deal with global warming. Could it be people have noticed the demolition of New Orleans by weather, the droughts in California and southeast, the death of cross-country skiing in Minnesota, the flooding of Cedar Rapids and a host of other weather “extremes?”
