A snack in honor of global warming alarmists


Yesterday, in an attempt to convince California lawmakers to renew the state's dysfunctional cap and trade program, Governor Jerry Brown called climate change "a threat to human existence." He instructed lawmakers that their vote on cap and trade would be "the most important vote of your life" and warned of a future "horrible situation that you're going to see mass migrations, vector diseases, forest fires, [and] Southern California burning up."

Since the "environmentalists" are forcing California to dump millions of acre-feet of water into the ocean supposedly to benefit the smelt, a three-inch baitfish, I have to wonder whether some of this water might be useful for putting out Brown's cataclysmic fires.

You may be curious what you can do to avoid such a terrible fate. Conveniently, some academics published an article this week recommending four measures people can take to avoid the global warming apocalypse: have less kids, don't drive cars, don't fly on planes, and don't eat meat.

As environmental extremists continue subjecting us to their absurd doomsday predictions and their preposterous "solutions," I'm going to have a bite of a gift sent to my office by Rep. David Valadao: smelt-themed cupcakes.
