Did anyone see the article about pictures from the Hubble Telescope that showed how the Giant Red Spot, a violent storm that has been seen on Jupiter since we have had telescopes that cold see it? Over the last 50 or so years it has shrunk to almost half its size. I was about to write a snarky article about global warming but got to thinking about something interesting.
I'm pretty sure there are no living beings on Jupiter that can be accused of changing the climate to make changes to this storm., What it does show, however, is that there are climate changes on Jupiter, Mars, Venus, etc. that probably can't be traced to anything we have any knowledge of. We can theorize but the same goes for Earth, as climate change has been going on for billions of years and millions of cycles.
Anything scientists come up with is a THEORY, here and on Jupiter, and is based purely on hypotheses. What caused the Ice Ages and the warming periods that followed? What caused all the continents to split apart and move from tropical zones to the poles and back? What caused the great extinctions? Would one huge volcanic eruption push us back to another Ice Age? There are lots of questions and lots of theories. Science is like that and the good scientists don't call any theory "Settled Science." Why even Gravity, something we have come to depend and rely on is just a Theory.
Just thinking.

It would be interesting to see if temperatures on other planets in our solar system move up and down with earth's. That would point the finger to the source of heat in our solar system - the sun. I know the wind executives who preach clean energy drive large gas guzzling Hummers, but I don't think they've had them on Mars or Jupiter just yet.

Maine Center For Public Interest Reporting – Three Part Series: A CRITICAL LOOK AT MAINE’S WIND ACT
******** IF LINKS BELOW DON'T WORK, GOOGLE THEM*********
(excerpts) From Part 1 – On Maine’s Wind Law “Once the committee passed the wind energy bill on to the full House and Senate, lawmakers there didn’t even debate it. They passed it unanimously and with no discussion. House Majority Leader Hannah Pingree, a Democrat from North Haven, says legislators probably didn’t know how many turbines would be constructed in Maine if the law’s goals were met." . – Maine Center for Public Interest Reporting, August 2010 https://www.pinetreewatchdog.org/wind-power-bandwagon-hits-bumps-in-the-road-3/From Part 2 – On Wind and Oil Yet using wind energy doesn’t lower dependence on imported foreign oil. That’s because the majority of imported oil in Maine is used for heating and transportation. And switching our dependence from foreign oil to Maine-produced electricity isn’t likely to happen very soon, says Bartlett. “Right now, people can’t switch to electric cars and heating – if they did, we’d be in trouble.” So was one of the fundamental premises of the task force false, or at least misleading?" https://www.pinetreewatchdog.org/wind-swept-task-force-set-the-rules/From Part 3 – On Wind-Required New Transmission Lines Finally, the building of enormous, high-voltage transmission lines that the regional electricity system operator says are required to move substantial amounts of wind power to markets south of Maine was never even discussed by the task force – an omission that Mills said will come to haunt the state.“If you try to put 2,500 or 3,000 megawatts in northern or eastern Maine – oh, my god, try to build the transmission!” said Mills. “It’s not just the towers, it’s the lines – that’s when I begin to think that the goal is a little farfetched.” https://www.pinetreewatchdog.org/flaws-in-bill-like-skating-with-dull-skates/

Sign up today and lend your voice and presence to the steadily rising tide that will soon sweep the scourge of useless and wretched turbines from our beloved Maine countryside. For many of us, our little pieces of paradise have been hard won. Did the carpetbaggers think they could simply steal them from us?
We have the facts on our side. We have the truth on our side. All we need now is YOU.
