In honor of Blog Action Day, I’m starting a list of the things I hate about global warming (besides the fact that it threatens most life on this planet). I’ll add more as I think of them.

Things I hate about global warming:

• Mowing my lawn later into the year
• Finding ticks on my dogs in December
• 90 degree days in October
• The possibility that one day, I’ll be able to see the ocean from my front steps (I’m 30 miles from the coast)
• The possibility that my insurance company will one day cancel my homeowner’s policy (see above bullet and this article from the New York Times)
• Daffodils done blooming by February
• Mom reminiscing about the old days when it snowed (I mean really snowed)
• Less need for heavy sweaters
• Bickering over how much of it is human caused, as if there are no moral reasons for caring about animals and nature
• People who say “It’s nothing that science can’t find the solution for!”
