I remember my first time at Stonehenge – in the 60s. I’d worked all day (Boston) and then flew “all night” and arrived at Heathrow. Checked into a hotel – went to the room – and couldn’t sleep, so I got into the rental and drove a bit – with no idea where I was going.I was surprised to come upon Stonehenge, so I stopped, paid the admission, and walked into the center – you could do that then.I sat down in the grass just outside the ring – and fell asleep. I awoke as the sun was shining through the verticals . . .
When cherished monuments are vandalized, it almost seems like the actual purpose of the action was to damage the group and its message. It’s as if fossil fuel companies have paid their own people to infiltrate and influence these groups into doing stupid protests like this one.
Ya just don’t get it. How am I going to put loud pipes on an electric pickup truck? It just ain’t no fun unless I can shake my neighbor’s windows at 2:00 am.
It is hateful craziness like that, that makes it hard for everyone else. The people in authority have already roped off places and put up barriers to keep people from getting close. It is the rude stupid people that make it nearly impossible for us to have nice things.
It’s positive to see the leftists condemn these acts of vandalism, but keep in mind, these are your own fellow leftists. They are the same leftists that vandalize university buildings and block roads, and generally p!ss people off. monya_43 is correct, they hurt their causes more than they help them.
So excessive heat means more water vapor which is the basis of clouds. Clouds that reflect the Sun’s energy.
And yet the experts cannot accurately represent clouds in their models so some just ignore them. But that won’t stop them from asking for trillions because their flawed models tell them the world is ending.
Nonhuman animals and plants suffer from such heat. Perhaps if the loss of food from extreme heat is stressed, more human animals would start to worry. Water evaporates in such heat which can cause more storms, tornadoes, rain. Heating oceans also can cause more extreme weather… and where will marine animals escape to cooler water… nowhere.
It’s frightening, yes. To stop it will take massive changes which is definitely scary. But mustn’t we do anything and everything so our children and grandchildren and future generations can live on a livable earth.
The stuff they used does come off easily, which is the only reason I’m not completely furious. Still, this was a stupid, stupid thing to do, HURTS their cause, and does nothing about climate change.

The global average heat being higher than ever recorded is not something complex or impossible to understand, even for MAGAts.
Yet, they continue to LIE as if it were.

thanks Karl Rove, for stealing the election for Dubya when Gore was all about “inconvenient truth” – we could have gotten a head start…
