Planet Earth just experienced the hottest May in recorded history.<\/p>\n

That’s according to those left-wing, socialist, tree-hugging, anti-business organizations such as the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, NASA and the Japanese government.<\/p>\n

OK, so the reaction to this latest report will be quite predictable.<\/p>\n

The righties will contend it’s all cooked up, fabricated, tailored to support the climate-change agenda being put forward by the communists who run the White House. The lefties will say these findings prove what they’ve been saying all along, which is that Earth is getting hotter.<\/p>\n

I haven’t yet decided how I feel about who’s to blame for what I believe to be happening, which is that the planet is warming up.<\/p>\n

Is it manmade or is it part of the planet’s evolutionary cycle?<\/p>\n

A lot of scientific data suggest that human beings are largely responsible for this, through the emission of greenhouse gases and the deforestation of large tracts of land that used to serve as a counterbalance to what humans spew into the atmosphere.<\/p>\n

I tend to believe the data. I haven’t yet drawn any firm conclusions. I’m still open to the possibility that Earth is beginning a cycle repeated every million years or so.<\/p>\n

NOAA, NASA and the Japanese, though, have laid it out — once more — for all the world to see. This past May was the hottest on record. How can we possibly deny that the climate is changing?<\/p>\n\n
