    Hint: If you live anywhere near lafayette, you might flood now due to about a trillion new subdivisions.
    Yep, my place near the Vermilion never flooded until those out of control subdivisions came along.

    BTW, I was in 2 countries last summer that are totally dependent on Mother Earth for their electricity. Very interesting how they use her wisely.

    Mother Earth is the source of oil and gas, also.

    Agree. I was in the business for 40 years. Let’s just say these used thermal as well as hydro to power their countries.

    Fully expect to get our home flooded before I leave this Earth. When rice fields and crawfish ponds between here and the parish line in Maurice (where west side of Lafayette drains) are becoming subdivisions, it’s just a matter of time.

    Humans have used windmills for a very long time. It's not like the hippies invented them.
    They did it for a primary source of energy

    I think it was Gustav when Perillo went on TV and started crying, telling his wife and mother that he loved them in case he never saw them again..

    Correct but the trend line needs to be based on measurements made with instruments of similar accuracy. If you look at the graph in the original post the difference between the high and low points of temperature is about 2 degrees. An error in reading the temperature buy even 0.2 degree is a 10 percent error. The people publishing this information need to be transparent and tell us the accuracy of their measurements (+ or - so many 0.1ths of a degree) so that an informed decision can be made.

    When ever I make a measurement of anything (especially comparative measurements) I always use the same instrument to make the measurement. Whether that be a caliper, mil gauge or total station. Measuring material values versus measuring temperatures and distances are totally different. Temperatures, distances and other environmental and spacial measurements are totally dependent upon the accuracy of the instrument and the precision and training of the operator. Any one or a combination of errors can lead to false readings.

    When looking at charts like this always look at the scale of the axes. You can emphasize a difference by adjusting the scale of the axes.

    Topography and ocean circulation. How did humans do this to themselves!!!
