POPSBlue skies, scorched Earth? What is Global Dimming? If we were to eliminate global dimming all together without addressing global warming the increase in temperature and extreme weather might be more significant than previously predicted. This has been recorded with one full degree temperature change in just a few days of decreased pollution in the days following the 9/11 attacks . This reverse effect of dimming has been has been blamed along with global warming for increasing temperatures, appropriately called global brightening . No one wants smoggy skies but it could be smog and particulates that may be shielding us from the full consequences of the greenhouse gases we pump into our air daily. Clear blue skies are something many folks thinks of when they think of “going green” but those clear blue skies may hold more heat than we can handle.

POPSIgnorant Homophobe I was aware of several facets of Palin's controversial life but this one struck me as particularly odd. It does fit in very well with her professed denial of evolution. Remember, this woman could be president, given McCain's age. Should we abandon the 21st Century again. It's been a strategy for the past 8 years that has not helped us very much. I, for one, am not ready to plunge us into the past. She has shown by her actions that she is uninterested in advancing rational thought.
