Secret DNR report details
warming dangers in SC

COLUMBIA—South Carolina’s wildlife agency gathered a team of scientists more than a year ago to study what could happen if temperatures in the state continue to warm, but have never released their report. A draft of the committee’s findings determined that if temperatures rise in the South by 9 degrees as projected by some over the next 70 years, South Carolina would see more beach flooding and invasion of non-native species such as piranha and Asian swamp eels, according to a draft of the report obtained by The State of Columbia. One scientist involved in the initial work on

Comments:
I imagine other coastal states have similar "secret" reports.

9 degrees? If the temperature increases 50 degrees 10´s of millions of people all over the planet will die - leading to less pollution, fewer Christians, and proof that Al Gore is not a dingbat. We want more global warming and we want it now.

This is a script from a bad sci-fi movie. Just got mixed up in AP´s in/out box. Move along, just junk science here. I think Jane Fonda is playing the lead role. They needed actors that were near life zombies.

These people use rectal thermometers to collect climate temps.I´m sure this will lead to a windmill on every corner in SC.

Article does not explain where the 9 degree F, and I am assuming Fahreneit, forecast comes from. Nor does article explain how such an enormous rise happens in one´s life time, 70 years. Since global temps have not risen in 15 years, why would So Carolina be worried?

Appears that this AP article is simply an example of what the AP does best; foster fear to promote a collectivist agenda.

As we all know, every place on earth that is warmer than South Carolina, from Florida to Kuala Lumpur, is a post-apocolyptic valley of death. We know this because the brilliant scientific minds of Democrats inform us that warmth is bad. It´s so bad! So very. very bad!

Democrat "scientists" conduct serious research the same way Democrat "journalists" investigate Obama.

Quite frankly - - I think the whole country could use a lot more Asian swamp eels than just the few it has right now.

The federal government should start a Swamp Eel Seeding Program to make it happen. Those slithery creatures actually do a great deal of good - - much more than any spotted owl ever has.

Asian Swamp Eels? Yes! Bring ´em on!

This is such bad science.

How much has the growth in SC´s population itseldf had on the datea gatehering? What was once open pasture and fields is now concrete and asphalt. It would be interesting to see the correlartion between development and temperature of time at the data collection points.

"It is now pretty clearly agreed that the C02 content will rise 25% by 2000. This could increase the average temperature near the earth´ s surface by 7 degrees Fahrenheit. This in turn could raise the level of the sea by 10 feet. Goodbye New York.
Goodbye Washington, for that matter. We have no data on Seattle."

The South Carolina shore climate is what it is. There are two "summers" -- the spring and the fall, and then true summer often is what I call the "hell months" where walking on the beach can be intolerable at 80 a.m. The low country has a rice paddy climate and the high humidity makes the summer heat feel even hotter.

On the other hand, I can recall summer days on Isle of Palms when the daytime high was 85 degrees and it was 102 degrees in Washington, D.C.

Lying about science to suit leftist programs is a very bad development. Science has to be validated by objective criteria.

A dramatic video emerged tonight of a man with bloodied hands, carrying knives and ranting ´We swear by almighty Allah we will never stop fighting you´, after a serving soldier was hacked to death by two men just 200 yards from an Army barracks. The man can be seen and heard talking to the camera in footage obtained by ITV News. It came as terrified eyewitnesses saw two men shot by police marksmen after the machete attack in Woolwich, south-east London. It is thought that the two men waited around for 20 minutes until police arrived and then tried to

A heroin addict father smokes the deadly drug contentedly as his two innocent children sit watching him adoringly. The oblivious man is part of a growing epidemic in the war-torn country of Afghanistan, which has seen the number of opium and heroin addicts tripling to 150,000, according to latest United Nations Figures, while 225,000 used the drug in 2012. In a country with a population 35million, there are now more than 1m addicts of one drug or another. It represents a major problem for the country, which produces 90 percent of all opiates in the world. Until recently

A 91-year-old WWII veteran fighting to prevent his daughter from evicting him from his Ohio home has raised more than $138,000 from online donors to buy back his home, easily surpassing his goal. John Potter says he´s ´amazed´ by the more than 5,000 people who have donated toward his original $125,000 goal while telling his granddaughter, Jaclyn Fraley, ´I never knew people could love an old man so much.´ After Mr Potter´s daughter sent him an eviction notice earlier this year, Ms Fraley organized the desperate fundraiser for him in April while sharing with the public his dire situation.

The return of ´animal spirits’ usually points to better times, but it’s more complicated now.

On May 3 1999, Moore was one of several cities left devastated after 74 tornadoes touched down across Oklahoma and Kansas in just 21 hours. Following a path similar to yesterday´s lethal twister, the storms that struck the city 14 years ago to the month left 46 dead and 800 injured. Due to the high number of mobile homes and less robust housing in this part of the US, more than 8,000 homes were destroyed. It caused almost $1.5 billion in property damage making it the fourth costliest in the world. The National Weather Service also recorded wind speeds

WASHINGTON - President Barack Obama says he is instructing his disaster response team to get tornado victims in Oklahoma everything they need "right away." Obama calls the devastation that tore through the Oklahoma City suburbs, quote, "one of the most destructive tornados in history," even though he said the extent of the damage is still unknown. Obama spoke Tuesday after an Oval Office briefing on the latest developments from his disaster response team and as Federal Emergency Management Agency Director Craig Fugate was heading to Oklahoma.

The wheels came off the Obama administration yesterday. We learned of a startling assault on freedom of the press by the Department of Justice, following the revelation last week of the unprecedented information-gathering foray by that department against The Associated Press. Then, a few minutes later, the Justice Department’s inspector general released a report declaring that the US attorney in Arizona used the leak of a confidential memo to try to discredit a whistleblower in the notorious “gun-walking” scandal known as Fast and Furious (which got two federal agents killed). The leak was called “egregious.”

WASHINGTON – A top IRS official in the division that reviews nonprofit groups will invoke the Fifth Amendment and refuse to answer questions before a House committee investigating the agency’s improper screening of conservative nonprofit groups. Lois Lerner, the head of the exempt organizations division of the IRS, won’t answer questions about what she knew about the improper screening – or why she didn’t reveal it to Congress, according to a letter from her defense lawyer, William W. Taylor 3rd. Lerner was scheduled to appear before the House Oversight committee Wednesday.

The dam protecting the IRS scandal began to crack today when Lois Lerner, the IRS official who announced, and apologized for, the improper singling out of conservative-leaning organizations by IRS employees under her command, announced through her criminal defense lawyer that she will not testify as scheduled tomorrow before the House Oversight Committee. Rather, she will assert her Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination. This marks an enormous milestone in the IRS investigation. It can now be taken as more or less established that crimes were committed by Obama administration employees. Lerner’s lawyer tried to minimize the significance

Former Democratic National committee chairman Howard Dean considers the controversy over Benghazi a “joke” and “silly.” “Benghazi is a laughable joke,” Dean proclaimed twice in a discussion with Republican National Committee communications chairman Sean Spicer last week. “With all due respect, governor, when four Americans die serving this country, that’s not a joke, sir,” Spicer responded. “Oh, stop it,” said Dean. The former Democratic presidential candidate also said that there were “no serious questions being asked about Benghazi” and brushed it off as an effort by Republicans to score political points.
