Keeping Our Heads in the Sand

April 20, 2009 | Posted by Jim Marston in Climate

The more things change the more they stay the same in the Texas Senate. While many Senators said they had epiphanies on global warming as a result of briefings from scientists in the UK and Texas A&M, the Senate continues to cave-in to the worst part of the business community when the rubber meets the road. The latest disappointment is the failure of SB988, which merely asks agencies to begin planning for the impacts of global warming such as droughts and hotter summers.

No one had to accept the scientific consensus that humans are in large part to blame for global warming. The bill would have merely required contingent planning for impacts we are already seeing (note this month's large wildfires). Many other states are doing this rational planning. Senator Fraser, Seliger, Hegar, Jackson, Estes, and Deuell voted to keep this state’s head in the sand. Kudos to Senators Averitt, Eltife, Uresti, and Hinojosa.

It's been a while since I checked out your website – everytime I stopover this blog gets hotter. I've been on the go working on my group of my adult websites. Ok, a little brazen advertising here, but this afiliate program has been cashing in like crazy for me http://productstopromote.info/high-converting-products/new-fetish-affiliate.php They are extremely addictive to watch! My visitors love it. Since we are not in a competing niche, I thought it would work well on blog also. Feel free to drop by and leave me a comment ;

It's been a long time since I visited your website – everytime I visit this website gets hotter. I've been busy developing my group of my fetish blogs. Ok, a little shameless plugging here, but this has been converting wildly for me http://productstopromote.info/high-converting-products/suprising-adult-niche-earner.php They are amazingly addictive to watch! My webvisitors love it. Because we are not in a competing niche, I thought it would work well on blog also. Feel free to come by and leave me a comment :d
