Last year, at this time, we were hitting record highs, right? $4.30, last year, at this time, today, they\u2019re $3.71. They\u2019ve been jumping overnight. Some of these jumps have been pretty big. One of the reasons is the incessant heat means these refineries have to \u2014 are going offline for maintenance, they can\u2019t run full throttle when it\u2019s 115 with the heat index, just like people can\u2019t work full throttle outside or on factory floors when it\u2019s so, so hot. So, that\u2019s one of the reasons. The other reason is, Russia backed out of this grain deal. And so, you had a rise in all kinds of commodity prices, corn, wheat, barley, all these prices have been going up. And sometimes, you tend to see commodities move together. But mostly, this heat thing has some of these refineries either slowing down or offline for maintenance. And that means they\u2019re not processing as much gasoline.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>We have summer every year. During the summer it gets hot. I remember back in the 80&#8217;s when they had to close the Phoenix airport because it was too hot and there wasn&#8217;t enough lift in the air for the planes to take off. I also know that they have found plant fossils in Greenland, a place where no one can currently plant anything. Can we assume that Greenland at some point was subject to global warming? If we are so warm now, why can&#8217;t we grow crops in Greenland in the places that are now iced over? I would also like to remind everyone that weather is cyclical and tends to average out. No one is currently mentioning that we had an unusually cold June this year. Don&#8217;t the temperatures generally average out?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On Friday, Breitbart reported the following: On Thursday, CNN hosts Poppy Harlow and Boris Sanchez blamed climate change for the recent surge in gas prices with the former saying that the surge in prices is a reason \u201cto get it &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rightwinggranny.com\/?p=51361\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[10348,55,1344,2698],"class_list":["post-51361","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized","tag-breitbart","tag-climate-change","tag-cnn","tag-gas-prices"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rightwinggranny.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/51361","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rightwinggranny.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rightwinggranny.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rightwinggranny.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rightwinggranny.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=51361"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.rightwinggranny.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/51361\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":51362,"href":"https:\/\/www.rightwinggranny.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/51361\/revisions\/51362"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rightwinggranny.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=51361"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rightwinggranny.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=51361"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rightwinggranny.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=51361"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
