CLIMATE CHANGE UPDATE


We've had what seems like an eternity of rain here in Maine.

Since we are on the coast there are many unused boats around so few are talking about the need to build an arc.  But the rising rivers and flooded streets are forcing us to think more about Noah and the need to climb into those boats.

Our record setting rainfall, 8 inches in the last three days, is twice as much rain as we normally get in June. 

My vegetable farmer friend Richard Rhames from Biddeford, Maine has been saying for a couple years that under climate change some places will be dryer and some wetter.  He predicted Maine would be wetter.  It looks so far like he is right about that.

Joke of the day:  When the U.S. attacks China who is going to make the "Support Our Troops" magnets people put on their cars? Bah-boom!
