I use oil to heat my house.
This year has been %#@&*1!!! expensive.
I finished insulating my basement this fall. $1,600.00. Based on what my neighbors have spent on energy, as a percentage over last year, I saved no money. The energy demand for my house was up about $1,600.00 this year.
Some neighbors have energy increases of 20-40% this year. I am at about 0% having insulated 163 feet of basement wall.

I’m thinking of suing Al Gore et al for False Advertising and Fraud.
We were promised Global Warming and I was looking forward to living life a bit tropical instead of polar. I could’ve moved to Florida but NOOOOOO, I believed them when they said the Earth was getting warmer and would keep on getting warmer. More fool I.
Who do I apply to or where do I go to complain?

I live in Tucson Arizona for a reason. This is it. I plan on riding my bike, and/or running some trails every day for the next 3 months. When the temps get too high I’ll just swim in my 82F pool.
I suffered through 9 years in Boston getting PhD and Postdoc and 2 years in England 85-87 (no summers). Never again. Polar vortex? Ha! Drought? I already live in a desert adapted climate.
And the GIGO climate models say a warmer earth is a wetter earth. Bring it on.
