Baaad news? Global warming now shrinking sheep (AP)

Prepude farm boys everywhere will just have to make do with the petite sheep.

Another stupid story about the myth of global warming. Everything is blamed on global warming which is just the normal cyclical temperature change that has happened through the eons. It is God's will. Man is not significant enough to affect what God has willed. What arrogance by the liberal heathens!

What a crock of crap, man made global warming. Even the far-left American hating EPA saying that it is not happening. If every kook out there that believes in this hoax climate change, do to man, killed themselves that would save the world.
My in-laws believe in this crap and I have never been in their house when it is cooler than 72 and never hotter than 74. They are the typical liberal, do as I say and not as I do. Luckily I met my wife way back when we were in high school and I was able to save her from the delusional thinking of the left.

Perhaps part of the reason skepticism is treated with great respect is because of three singular indisputible facts.
1) It was warmer in the time of the Romans & Egyptians that it is now
2) The 1300's experienced a dramatic miniature ice age
3) We are aware of several major ice ages, one of which included a 1mile thick sheet of ice over Detroit.

Global warming may be a minute factor. The increased cost / value of feed grains now used to produce ethenol for gasoline may be a larger factor with the sheep having to depend more on forage for food and growth.

Carbon Tax = Outsourcing
This all involves a govt approach to control carbon output, giving econ incentives for achieving cuts in carbon emission. The Gov't, will set an emission level or cap on the amount of carbon that can be emitted. Co's or other groups are issued emission permits & required to hold an equal # of allowances which represent a right to emit the pollutant. The total allowances & credits can't exceed the cap, thus limiting total emissions. Co's needing to increase their emissions to expand must buy credits from those who pollute less. The transfer of allowances is the trade aspect of this.
Those who can't do this cheaply of course will trade their rights away & go out of business.
If all countries participate it sounds reasonable enough. In the real world, co's have the option to move ops to countries (India or China) not requiring cap & trade. That will increase world carbon output with the outsourced jobe from US.

If this size connection holds true in all instances I am thrilled!!! That means that as the temp increase, the portion size of my Ice Cream will increase in direct relation to the average temp! I'm hungry. I hope it's HOT out tonight!

No such thing as global warming it's all political leftist hype. Green is the new red (communism).

Looks like lard a$$ gore will need two sheep to make a sweater now.

If everybody who believes in global warming truly wants to reduce their carbon footprint, maybe they should stop breathing...

It would likely take longer than a couple of decades to cause a drastic change in mammal size. Science gone wild.
Save the world...use birth control!

How will this impact syphillis rates in Scotland?

It's shrinking brain cells too...

"Global warming" is lowering the IQ's of those who believe in it...

It is the sheep herders fault for following to close !!! Give me a break I am sure pretty soon there will be sheep walking on two legs

Global warming is BS period. Cap and trade is just a ploy to take the rest of American Industry and move it to China. Henry Ford was a great industrialist and also a great philanthropist. He believed in paying good wages and truly took care of his employees. Now we move work to Mexico to cities like Acuna who's workers live in pallet houses and school buses without sewage, water, or climate control. Scottish Sheep getting smaller? Who cares. My kids having to live in the streets after my job is gone to cap and trade? I care about that!

In a few decades Bernie Madoff's scam will be child's play compared to the hoax that Gore has perpetrated. These climate change fanatics will cost us many times over what Madoff took from his clients.

Your kidding me right..............Is this all the news they could come up with. Hey, the would not have this problem if the keep those legs out of those rubber boots.

Gets more ridiculous every day.

global warming,climate change or not,this is how evolution works. im from florida and the normal run of the mill animals are smaller the further south you go. saw it on the discovery channel being smaller helps animals deal with heat.

Is this how pathetic our society has gotten? What takes more blind faith, believing this or believing in God? God is much more believable than stories like this intended to convince us of their fantasy. And there is just as much debate about global warming as there is about God.

Politicians and the media are driving climate change. Real scientists will tell you it's hogwash.

Hell stories of the media covering up anti global warming positions:

This is...so freakin ridiculous not even a caveman would believe this s***

WHAT WILL THEY THINK OF NEXT, BOY OH BOY

WHAT STUPID PERSON WRITE;S THESE THINGS..

HEAD LINES....................

its are shrinking your testicles too, just ask al.

Have liberals introduced any laws allowing people to marry their sheep yet? You think those freaks would be all for that.

Al Gore is at it again.....this time with sheep!

And my wife seems to think that global warming has affected the size and use of my penis. But who cares after eight kids and 28 grandkids and 4 great grandkids. As if thats the only little thing I have to worry about is someones sheep.......I'm still waiting for ice cubes from polar ice melt down,for my wine!

The Yahoo-Soros people are now poking fun at themselves. If they were around at the end of the ice agen they would be moaning about the change.

Only 20,000 years ago New York City was buried under 3,000 feet of ice. New Yorkers are quite glad for global warming.
