Brrr….

I haven’t posted in about a week and I really don’t have that much to write about, so I’ll talk about what people talk about when they don’t know what else to talk about: the weather.

Okay. Last summer, despite all the rain, was really, really hot. And I complained about it. I couldn’t get to sleep at night because it was so hot and for me to sleep comfortably, I need a heavy blanket on top of me. Now, this summer (so far) is much less hot than last summer, but now it’s too cold. There were like two hots days in April or May and then the weather went splat and got really chilly.

I didn’t think that anything in The Day After Tomorrow could come true when I went to see it. However, one of the essays I needed to read for my literature exam was about global warming and its effects and the things that happened in the Day After Tomorrow were discussed. They could actually happen! And they seem to be happening right now. The weather is definitely getting colder.

In the essay, the spreading of pests was also mentioned, and diseases carried by them. And in the past few years, diseases carried by mosquitos have been rising.

So…. it’s a little scary. Everybody should try to consume less gas…. and stuff…. and I don’t know what else. Anyway, I think I’ve just been rambling this entire post. Sorry. It’s cold out.

    The world has been warming up for over a decade now. Also the best way to help stop global warming is to find new sources of power instead of using gas, which is hard because gas is so cheap yet it contains a wealth of power. The Republicans who run the government though will not fund new projects for new power programs, because well almost half of them have stocks in oil companies and when oil is selling their making lots of money. Take vice president dick cheney for example who has a ton of stock options in Halliburton the same company that has leading contracts with the “new” Iraq. Also DICK made 36,000,000 dollars because of his investments, considering he made that in 2000 why would he push for legislation that would put his company out of bussiness. So in the end the world will go through a major climate change and the human race will be severly decimated so that less polutents are entered into the air and then the human race or what is left of it will have to rebuild the end.
