    maggot- despite your own delusions you are NOT an authority on ANYTHING, let alone global climate shifting.
    You are a cut-and-paste plagiarist with a very small dick. Get real.

    If we all cared about auto emissions (the largest source of greenhouse gas) we would all buy electric/hybrid cars.
    The only reason California can even pretend to be green is because they import much of their electricity from neighbouring states. They also get 40% of electricity in-state from gas powered CCGT generation.

    Due to high electricity demand, California imports more electricity than any other state, primarily wind and hydroelectric power from states in the Pacific Northwest (via Path 15 and Path 66) and nuclear, coal-, and natural gas-fired production from the desert Southwest via Path 46.[12] Imported coal-fired electricity is expected to decline as power agreements expire and the city of Los Angeles phases out its use of imported coal by 2025.

    When and where was that? Because even 2000 years ago the Greeks knew the Earth was round. So even though you want to compare science of the 21st century to knowledge folks had over 2000 years ago, you actually made a pretty ignorant statement.

    But it is likely that the current day idiotic flat-earthers are climate science deniers as well.

    A Modest Proposal For Separating Blue States From Red

    Dear Red-State Trump Voter,
    Let’s face it, guys: We’re done.


    It is a tragedy that so much of the work that so many men and women toiled at for so long to make this a better country, and a better world, has been thrown away, leaving us all in such needless peril.

    This is why our separation in all but name is necessary.

    That is another reason we need to beef up science education

    Wingnuts are obviously unaware that even the ancient greeks surmised the earth was spherical and this was widely known in Columbus' day.

    A functioning representative democracy only works when citizens are broadly informed and educated in history , science, geography, civics, grammar, logic, math, and humanities.

    Which is why it has been a crusade by the right wing to destroy education.
