Climate change hits Mars!!, What? No humans on mars! How can this be? Options

[Cpt. Snot Rocket]

What is the coincidence that both Mars and the earth are showing an increase in surface temperature at the same time? Maybe it has something to do with nature, or solar waves from the sun? Maybe more research is needed here afterall?

Or maybe there is a Martian invasion fleet taking off for earth right now!

However....... Most places across the length of Canada reported their most snowiest winter on record!

That's why the term really should be "climate change" and not global warming. Some areas heat up, some areas cool down, some experience crippling drought while others suffer from devastating floods and some won't experience any change at all.

The big question remains, what do we do.

Skyrocketing prices for flour (here in Maine we've seen prices jump 500% in the last six months) are partly blamed on the shift to Ethanol production in the states and Canada. Farmers have converted some wheat fields to corn to take advantage of tax breaks. But, at the same time, drought in Australia has whithered their wheat crop and the spreading stem rust disease is killing wheat crops in Asia.

With the weak dollar, China can afford to outbid US buyers and they've gobbled up much of the available wheat. This is just one example of people who think they are doing the right thing (shifting to Ethanol) who end up causing more trouble down the line. Canada has responded by announcing an expected 11% increase in their wheat production for next year, but our US presidential candidates seem completely disinterested in the issue.

I've read a lot of predictions that say America will be protected from mass starvation because of the wealth of the country. Well, that wealth is whithering on the vine, along with the wheat, thanks to the incredibly depreciated dollar.

These are dire times indeed.
