Death Valley is about to mark the 100th anniversary of the hottest temperature ever recorded on Earth (134F.) It is very hot in Death Valley because :

1. There is more heat trapping CO2 in Death Valley, because people drink lots of beer there
2. There is more heat trapping water vapor in Death Valley, because it is very humid there.
3. Death Valley is a desert with lots of bare rock at  low elevation (below sea level), so the atmospheric pressure and height of the troposphere is high there.
4. If Death Valley was located at the base of Mt. Everest, it would still be very hot there.
5. The consensus says that it was hot in 1913 because of SUV CO2.

This is just what Dessler predicted two years ago.

As you sit by the pool and sweat this summer, one book you should be reading is The Impact of Global Warming on Texas (University of Texas Press, June 2011, second edition). This book, written by a group of Texas academics, is a sober analysis of our state’s vulnerability to climate change — and the things we can do about it.

It is a particularly appropriate read as we suffer through the hellish summer of 2011. While it is unknown exactly how much human activities are contributing to this summer’s unpleasant weather, one lesson from the book is clear: Get used to it. The weather of the 21st century will be very much like the hot and dry weather of 2011.

The UN thinks that there are far too many of us peasants populating the Earth, and that we are ruining the planet.

They want to take the peasant’s guns away so that they can deal with the overpopulation problem.
