Crops under stress as temperatures fall

Sure. Whatevs.
But the fact that a man-made problem exists seems obvious, so I could not care less if someone behind the curtain in inflating the numbers to get folks' attention. If people need to be scared into doing something, as long as it gets done it's fine by me.
Kind of like what the Republican Party did with Willie Horton.

You guys might want to consider the source of this nonsense. From Booker's Wiki page:
Scientific views
Via his long-running column in the UK's Sunday Telegraph, Booker has claimed that man-made global warming was "disproved" in 2008[1], that white asbestos is "chemically identical to talcum powder" and poses a "non-existent risk" to human health[2], that "scientific evidence to support [the] belief that inhaling other people's smoke causes cancer simply does not exist"[3] and that there is "no proof that BSE causes CJD in humans"[4]. He has also defended the theory of Intelligent Design, maintaining that Darwinians "rest their case on nothing more than blind faith and unexamined a priori assumptions".[5]
There's more there too, so click on it. This guy has no background in climate science whatsoever. He's a British journalist with an undergrad degree in history. Clearly, he's not real big on science.
These are the types of people you need to celebrate in order to deny that global warming exists. That should tell you something.

I just don't care about cycles or any of that. For me, I don't need to see heating or cooling "data" to know what we emit industrially is bad for the Earth. The data can be looked at any way the user chooses to. The fact that poison is in the environment and in the food and water supercedes any data for me. And I certainly don't need to read cal's "articles."

Thank you, Heck for that important update as to the background of the doofus journalist.
But, despite that, I can find all sorts of other far more legit sources for the same idea.
Farmers around here have planted soybeans late, and know that weather patterns,
which they follow a -lot-, have indicated that cooler temps are prevailing in our area,
and afew farmers have friends out West, and they say the same thing.
So, now I'll go find a respectable source/author, before Heck pulls a groin muscle
trying to reach high enough to kick my butt.

Regardless how you want to spin it. Global Warming up or GFlobal Cooling it down.
I wouldn't trust the numbers currently being driven down our throats, we all know they want to use Global warming to Tax the Hell out of all of us.
Wait until you go to the store to buy your veggies.
$$$$ I hope you planned ahead. $$$$

some people can only process information about their world through the filter of what a political party tells them to think.I really hate when anyone (here or elsewhere) pigeon-holes me as a Democrat. What I have is my own ideology and set of beliefs, and just see more of those same beliefs (or as close as someone can get to them) in those that run for office from that party. However, calling me a Liberal is fine, because, well, that's what I am, I reckon...

Well, I probably am guilty of that... I tend to just label Dems as libs, which is just a
worthless generalization. There's moderate Dems with regular values like I have about a lot of things,
and some Republicans I have no use for because they are "moderates".
I try more and more to pinpoint the intended point to be made as to "liberals" or "leftists",
which, to me, is a lot more valid, but still a label.
