    If by lemmings, Stephan means the general population fed propaganda by mainstream media, he has hit the nail on the head.

    Lemmings don’t actually act like that. But of course this isn’t the real world either. I mean who believes that a wise αss would live on top of a mountain??

    Climate change. As fake news as lemmings jumping off a cliff.

    Record cold all over Europe. Snow on the mountains in Hawaii. Arctic blasts in North America. But yeah, here’s tens of trillions of climate taxes. “Trust the (paid off) experts,” right?

    We haven’t seen the lemmings in the strip for a while. It would be nice if Pastis would bring back some of the other old characters.

    Can you imagine Kerry, the Bidens, the Obamas, . with their million dollar mansions scattered about the country, paid for of course by us peasants, living under the drastic regulations they are proposing to eliminate “climate change”. Neither can I.

    That’s “lemmings?” What a relief! I’ve been worried for years that Jonathan Lemon, the Rabbits Against Magic guy, might jump off a cliff.

    The weather is getting warmer. The climate is still following the same steady trend of glacial recession and desertification that it has since the seas were cooled by an ice age. Australia never recovered from a previous glacial period, losing much of its forested areas to desert some sixty thousand years ago. You can see the cold current that causes this, if you look at a map.

    Some people are so stupid that they believe there is no limit to how much poison we can pour into the air we breathe.

    It’s MUCH more important that a few people who have more money than they can ever spend have even more money.

    Contrary to popular belief, lemmings don’t actually jump off cliffs to their death.

    True. But then what would we use as an avatar for the MAGA$$oles? Fortunately, they are easy to spot: just look for the word “woke”.

    Perhaps, theirs, is a great idea. Longest highest dew point summers and deep low pressure parked over us for a week (went up to Hudson Bay) and now finished dumping 10" snow and bringing killer wind-chill arctic air. Now, with an 80-year-old body, and a 16-year-old brain, my doctor ordered me to wear a mask outside.

    A high of 13 degrees is warming? Well… maybe, as it is a change from the minus column we were in all week.

    It is hard for me to believe in global warming as I set here in the mid South at only 1200 feet elevation and look out my window at nine inches of snow and a noon temperature of three degrees.

    There actually is a lot of good climate news. For example, COP29 agreed to dramatically lower methane emissions, and methane’s greenhouse effect is 80 times more powerful than CO2. Solar and wind are now cheaper to install than fossil fuel power. Electric cars are outselling gas cars in most of the works (USA is lagging). I could go on

    Just wait till Revelation 8 "… a third of the sun was blotted out and did not give it’s light… " so the Earth was a third colder, plunging it to winter-like conditions or colder.. those that think they can rely on batteries and electricity as their new “salvation” religion, will find that they cannot!
