I wonder if very many of us in the nation and world are paying attention to all the weather-related events, disasters and catastrophes included, that have been taking place this year. Herewith are just a few of the latest.
This took place the week before the Memorial Day weekend.
Multiple highways across Missouri shut down due to flooding
Check out how many roads were closed across the entire state of Missouri.
This was just last weekend:
Memorial Day weather: Heat wave scorches southern US
Then this happened.
Vehicles stuck in foot-deep hail in Omaha, Council Bluffs area
This one was four days ago.
Then we all know this took place this last week locally.
This is going on now, to the South of us, of course, and is still going on.
This is the past month.
This is just how large an issue this is.
You can go here and see just some of the damage.
As if all that isn't enough, this story broke two days ago.
"Abnormally high temperatures have led to unsafe travel conditions, uncertain ecological futures and even multiple deaths"
So how long, America? How long until we first accept global warming is happening and it's taking place because we humans are pumping so much CO2, carbon dioxide, into the atmosphere? And then, second, how long until we do something about it?
