I think next year is going to be a beast for mosquitos.

Went around today pouring out stuff that caught rain water in the storm the other night: All the ones in the sun were teeming with mosquito larvae. On Christmas Eve. Thank goodness Climate Change is totally made up, or I'd be worried.

They're still kind of staggering around in Clarke when it warms enough, they still active for y'all?

But we still believe that human activity causes most of the climate change, and we try to adopt policies that will cool the planet just a bit. We could do much better, but we are ahead of many parts of the country.

When malaria becomes a problem in the US, hearts will change, minds will open to admit the reality: we have to protect our earth from the damage caused by fossil fuels.
