I wonder

Climate change is being blamed on the burning of fossil fuels.  I don't think that's necessarily accurate.  Burning fossil fuels is a byproduct to the causes of climate change.  

Concrete is the cause of climate change.  Say what?  Concrete.  I told my son this and he looked at me like I was crazy.  He disagreed.  I told him the concrete is reflecting the heat from the sun instead of going into the ground and being absorbed by dirt and other vegetation.  He's like, whatever dad.

I told him I could prove it.  How?  When we get home...  put your hand on the drive way...  then put your hand on the street...  then put your hand on the grass in the yard.

He gets out of the car and does what I had asked.  I asked him which was hottest.  The street.  Which one was the least hot?  The grass.  He was shocked.

So don't give me all this bullshit that global warming is caused by fossil fuels.  It's caused by taking away all the dirt, grass, trees and other vegetation.  The sun fuels life.  Without the sun's energy being absorbed by living things, it has no where to go and it reflects up and gets caught up in the atmosphere.  There simply isn't anywhere for the suns energy to go.  So it festers and ferments in the atmosphere.

How did you figure that out?  I'm brilliant.

No.  I figured it out through observation.  in the fact that sometimes rain goes around concrete filled areas and falls where the trees are.  My neighborhood is a prime example.   There have been multiple times where it doesn't rain from the interstate to my neighborhood....  but you turn into the neighborhood and the streets are wet.  My neighborhood has a lot of trees compared to the surrounding area.  Leave the neighborhood and it's dry.  Coincidence?

Or how about a storm moving across the terrain and it dissipates as it gets over the city and reforms when it gets past the city.  It's not about the fossil fuels.  It's about the concrete taking the place of soil, trees and the like.  It happens where I live.  It happens at the airport I work.

They want to say it's about fossil fuels?  It isn't.  They blame the fossil fuels because they are burned to drive over the concrete in distances ever further from the city.  The destruction of the natural habitat and destruction of the earth starts at the city and works it way out.  The fossil fuels have nothing to do with it.  Idiots.  If John Kerry had a brain you'd think that he would make the connection and stop flying around in a private airplane.  Why doesn't he?  Because he knows it doesn't matter.  They see your carbon footprint that they invented as a revenue stream.  That's it.  Stop building and developing every iota of open space.  The planet will heal itself.    

Yo sheep - stop accepting what you're told at face value and start using your own brain for something more than social media and consuming entertainment.  It's making you stupid.

I feel like we're being constantly lied to.  Like all the time.  By everyone in power.  They count on us not thinking things out for ourselves.  They count on us accepting their view of the world and how it works.  I think they're wrong.

Politicians make sure every problem on earth have a complicated and nuanced solution that usually involve large sums of money to solve.  The problems on earth have simple solutions but we can't accept that.  Maybe that's why they hate Donald trump.
