A New Place For Sun

Maybe there'll come a day in the future When tourists flock to Canada for fun They say that Florida will no longer exist Ontario will be the new place for sun Weather patterns certainly changed a lot For about the last decade or two Recent patterns can be a bit unnerving Big changes for me and you Should we assume this is the new norm Just try our best to get used to it Or is it a glitch and we'll soon return To the way it was as kidlets It's what the predictors of global warming Would have us believe to be true I'm skeptical about this dire assessment My thoughts... how about you? It's sure not too late to turn things around With dedication and will of us all So let's get onboard, let's all do our part Let's show 'em and answer the call © Jack Ellison 2013

Jack beautiful subject. It's very close to my heart. I think we all can slow down this process if not stop it. Lets walk that mile instead of driving.

I believe it's a natural phenomenon. We certainly can do things to slow it down but we're powerless to stop it! Thank you dear Abigale... love and hugs, Jack

My belief is that's this global warming is a natural cycle the earth goes through. We are powerless to stop it but we will survive! Have a super duper weekend my dear Donna lady! Hugggggs!

t's climate changing... Not climate warming. The earth compensates... When hotter in one spot... colder in another... It's more likely the poles moving are causing the changes... Remember we've had tropics and ice ages before... Either way there will be changes wheither we're ready or not. And one volcano can spew more polution than we all make in a life time times 1000... Dole said we have global warming... He also said he invented the internet... Snicker... We're along for the ride... Not stearing the boat.
