If there would indeed be a global warming, then it would not be natural because we are in fact in a global cooling (heading towards a little ice age) period. But all impartial evidence (e.g. that which has not been funded by some non-profit organisation with a dubious agenda) shows that we are not in a global warming, so everything is cool, so to speak.
And I'm not in the USA.
Quite correct. The Constitution doesn't grant anything. It assumes that we already have full freedom, and it merely state what can't be taken away from us.
Now, the Government would probably argue that the amendment is now irrelevant because we no longer have that assumed freedom (by executive order).
Only to protect themselves. Not us. Because we who are not among among the leaders of Government are, you know, the enemy. That's why they need to keep tabs on everything we do and think. It is sort of telling that they are more interested in surveilling its own citizens than those in other countries. And I write "its own" deliberately, because we mainly viewed as a natural resource that the Government owns.
When I worked in the US, we had to deliver the documents for a bid to some US Defence agency, and they required everything to use international standard units of measure, including the papers we submitted our bid on -- A4 to be exact. While the US Defence apparently had no trouble at getting printers and papers in that size in the US, us mere mortals (e.g. normal companies) weren't able to buy those easily from somewhere. In the end I had to pop over to Europe and pick up the stuff we needed.
In my physics class, we used newton for weight and grams for mass. Since they mostly measure the same, people tend to use grams as the notation for both.
Which feet and inches system? Most every country in Western Europe has had their own feet & inches systems in the past, and some still do. Those feet & inches are not harmonised between the countries, so a UK feet is not the same as a Swedish feet and so on.
When I lived in the US, the feet & inches system used there was called "standard" or "real" units. As if the SI units are unreal, or even surreal.
Can't we all agree to measure everything in "ticks"?

Who funds this 'science' and what do they expect to be able to prove with it?

Just goes on to show that a certain level of intelligence is required to act on such intelligence or else it will just be dumbness.
A jolly good way to create more public sector jobs and make jobless statistics look very good indeed for any new president. Well done.
Then I suppose the UK could also convert to the Euro without it being the end of the world (I would actually love only having to carry one currency).

We drive on the left side of the road, which is right.
Do you measure your beer in UK or US pints, then?
