Not in the case of tax breaks for energy efficient appliances, dumbass.
76% of Americans Now Acknowledge Climate Change Is Occurring--Including the Majority of Republicans

10% of the purchase price barely covers sales tax. Texas is the only state I know of that doesn't tax a lot of energy efficient appliances. Utility companies will often times give credits to people who make improvments. Everybody can use that. Not everybody qualifies for tax credits, and even fewer of those people file the IRS long form in their taxes.

So what did they "give" to you in your scenario ? It seems like all that happens there is they simply take less from you.
Where's the beef Wendy?

As noted, it is essentially flat. The correlation to "climate change" is not evident.
If hurricanes were a stock, I'd call it "range bound", and that's not the only type of event which exhibits such qualities; so, I'm going to

Says the guy whose wife had to beg and sell to get money when her snitching husband got lock away. My laundromats have me not touching my retirement income for about 5 years now. Tell your wife to go apply for welfare again...just tell her to leave your felony having name off the application
Dude, it is not as simple as that. It is very locality dependant, there are neighborhood codes such as NO FUCKING ONEHUNDREDFOOT TOWERS IN YOUR YARD, there are local code enforcement, there are times when the wind doesnt blow and your shit doesnt work that day, it isnt a simple go buy a windmill and woohoo live electricity free.
Oh, and are you living on windmill power? If so post a picture I would like to see what your windmill looks like.

You said it wasn't available. It isn't universally available, but it IS available. I don't have to be using it to be able to say so.

Here's another disturbing phenomenon that a professional meteorologist discussed with me recently; global warming is well known to be happening fastest at the poles, leading to a lessening of the temperature difference between poles and equatorial regions. This temperature differential is what drives weather patterns, and as the differential narrows, weather patterns will increasingly stall and become stationary, for months at a time. A few hundred miles could be the difference between torrential, flooding rains day after day- and deepest drought.
I'm sticking to my guns on the chart @heckler73 posted; while the total number of hurricanes was flat, I saw a clear signal towards more major storms.You may need to be a little more specific on what the definition of "storms and natural disasters" means in the context used. I'm looking at (supposed) data which suggests otherwise.

You know what? That same chart shows total hurricanes trending down, yet major storms STILL have a long term upward trend. That means the percentage of hurricanes that are major storms is climbing substantially... and that's significant.
Why? Because such an result is right in line with global warming models, specifically sea surface temperatures. Warmer water temperatures provide the energy hurricanes need to get stronger.
I'd say it's time to sell the beach house in the Caribbean. Maybe buy a boat so you can sail out of the way...

@ ttystikk ..u in Michigan man ?
I agree with ya... Weather seems to be stalling n flooding and drought is very severe ...lime ya said ..few hundred miles away .
Look @ Boston... Ya got 90 year old women saying " last winter was most snow they have seen "
Texans. That are 90 ish saying same about drought n then rain fall..
Californians and south Carolinians... Louisiana ..whatever... Weather is more extreme and sticking around longer

Colorado. The weather here has been eerily calm of late. I'm a nearly lifelong resident. Over my lifetime, I can clearly see a warming trend of summers getting hotter and winters not being as frigid.
