First of all whatever caused the hot days in the 20s and 30s was very likely a natural phenomenon. No way of really knowing as they didn't have access to all the satellite data we have today. Regardless, it was no where near the scale of what has been the trend over the last 4 decades, where temperature gain has matched the steady increase of human produced carbon in the atmosphere.

The NYP article you pointed to makes a lot of accusations, all long on generalizations and completely absent on specifics. What a poorly written, biased, waste of a url.

As for cows, DUH! OKay brainiac, let's put on our thinking caps. WHY are there so many cows on the planet? Are they simply flourishing in nature? NO! OMG they are farm animals!

Cows are part of OUR environmental footprint on the planet! Every time I hear that stupid argument I want to restrict voting for people who are brain dead.
