Cows were symptom of global warming in Fresno

Back in 1958, when I was 7 years old, I remember my family going to a dairy on Cedar and Dakota avenues. We got all our milk and eggs there and their chocolate milk was the best. They had farm animals there also for kids to see and enjoy.

I remember standing in front of a cow and a big noise came out and the ground kinda shook. I asked my dad what it was. He said that is the cow passing gas. I didn’t know at the young age that I just experienced global warming at 7 years old. I checked out what the temperature was Dec. 30, 1958 and it was 51 degrees.

I went back to Cedar and Dakota avenues on Dec. 30, 2015, on that exact spot where the ground shook and the temperature was 51.2 degrees. The left-wing crowd could be right on global warming. I didn’t see it 57 years ago, but I heard it.
