These State Birds May Be Forced Out of Their States as the World Warms

New York Times, by Brad Plumer

 

Original Article

 

Washington - Each state in America has an official state bird, usually an iconic species that helps define the landscape. Minnesota chose the common loon, whose haunting wails echo across the state’s northern lakes each summer. Georgia picked the brown thrasher, a fiercely territorial bird with a repertoire of more than 1,000 song types. But as the planet warms and birds across the country relocate to escape the heat, at least eight states could see their state birds largely or entirely disappear from within their borders during the summer, according to a new study.

Is it any wonder that not a single person there knew how to operate a manual valve?

I honestly respect people who use their voice and protest for causes they believe in because it takes courage, even if (imo) its misguided... But this here is hilarious :lol: 

 

 

 


I knew I had seen this before.

Anyone else struck by the notion that the end they're burying produces pretty much the same thing as the part they're elevating?

It doesn't take courage to be this stupid when everyone is enabling you.
