Every 2 weeks is the hottest 2 weeks because the media loves to create new tragedies. We've had plenty of hot summers and cold winters before, as well as plenty of cold summers and hot winters. Inb4 I'm a dirty commie for being skeptical
I’ma dirty commie, I wouldn’t think to call you one. I would recommend you actually read the data though, there’s no two ways about it, climate change is real, and dangerous.
Climate change is real, but so is the media trying to oversensationalize everything.
The media is invested in the status quo and the status quo is consumption. Or do you think those gasoline commercials between news segments are for the viewer's benefit. That's what soft bride money looks like.
Those two weeks were the hottest because they were. No hot summers or cold winters were this bad. You have to be trolling.
You talk more like a capitalist who wants to sell oil.
