Taxpayers are then left to foot the bill to replace it. Channel 9's investigative reporter Christopher Heath discovered when the springs run dry, taxpayers fork over millions to repair the damage. "We made an investment in the well because we wanted to make our landscaping nice," said Don Phillips, a resident in Lake County. Phillips has a direct source for inexpensive water, a backyard well. "A lot of us put wells in when the water started going up," Phillips said. Florida's water is a public resource by law, meaning it exists for residents to use it for free. Private companies and private individuals get Florida's free water and sell it for a profit. Dr. Bob Knight is the executive director of the Florida Springs Institute. Over the years, Knight's watched as companies from Nestle to Niagara have tapped into the water supply to turn a profit. "That's a good deal if you can get it. That's a very good deal but it's a bad deal for the people of Florida," Knight said. "Even Silver Springs, Florida's first tourist attraction is not immune from pumping, just feet from where I'm standing, water is pumped out. The water then travels about a quarter-mile to this tower where the trucks line up to take the water away." "We treat it like it's infinite, and it's not. It's a fixed amount that we get each year," Knight said. When the springs are taxed from the withdrawals, taxpayers will be responsible. In 2018, the Legislature set aside $50 million for springs restoration "The water bottling companies are profiting off the free water that the public is giving them," Knight said. In the northeast part of Central Florida, covered by the Saint John's river water management district, five companies have permits totaling 800 million gallons a year. While that is just a small fraction of total usage, it is still, water that is given away, to be sold. Channel 9 reached out to various water companies but did not hear back. Some states, like Connecticut and Maine, collect fees for bottle water. A decade ago, Florida considered a similar fee structure, but that idea failed and has not been brought back. People exploit natural resources all the time, for profit... And your tax dollars are helping to subsidize a business whose investors profit. BTW, I will be having surgery at your expense as well. It won't allow me to work but since you're paying for it, I can live with it. You make this too easy Harvey. Corporations and a disabled Veteran will have it better because of tax payers like you. And to be an ass hole about this, Thanks for helping to pay for the surgery I will be having. I might actually be able to have a Christmas dinner this year.

Thank you. Global warming is the long-term rise in the average temperature of the Earth's climate system. So 'global warming' is defined as 'global warming'. Circular definition. Try again. TomF1 wrote: It is a major aspect of climate change, and has been demonstrated by direct temperature measurements and by measurements of various effects of the warming. Define 'climate change'.

TomF1 wrote: [1][2] The terms global warming and climate change are often used interchangeably.[3] So their synonyms? How do you define 'climate change' using an undefined phrase 'global warming'?

We don't have anywhere near enough thermometers.

It's one aspect of what we call 'weather'. TomF1 wrote: [5] While there have been prehistoric periods of global warming, Define 'global warming'. Define 'climate change'. You still have not managed to define either phrase. TomF1 wrote: [6] many observed changes since the mid-20th century have been unprecedented over decades to millennia.[1][7] Undefined time frame. Decades to millennia?? Define 'unprecedented. Who was observing the entire Earth of weather a thousand years ago??

They are still there. The ocean hasn't consumed them? It's not possible to measure a global sea level. There is no valid reference point. Land moves, you see. It even has a tide like the oceans. TomF1 wrote: regional changes in precipitation, Define 'regional'. How big is this 'region'? What is so different from 'weather'? How are you measuring precipitation in this 'region'? It's only possible to measure precipitation in a 1 inch square rain gauge. TomF1 wrote: more frequent extreme weather events such as heat waves, Define 'heat wave'.

In 2014, the Antarctic winter ice extent was the largest ever recorded. These go up and down as part of normal variance. TomF1 wrote: Overall, higher temperatures bring more rain and snowfall, How is 'higher temperature', and 'rain and snowfall' being measured. I will call this argument 1. TomF1 wrote: but for some regions droughts and wildfires increase instead. Define 'drought'. The only reason wildfire is increasing in California is because ecologists prevent anyone from removing brush and dead wood like they used to. I will call this argument 2. You are now locked in paradox. You are now attempting to assign conflicting 'effects' to the same 'cause' (whatever those 'effects' actually are, or whatever that 'cause' actually is). Arguing both sides of a paradox is irrational. You must clear the paradox by choosing 1 or 2. It can't be both!

TomF1 ☆☆☆☆☆ (7)	As a year 8 chemistry student, I can tell you that the ocean is solely composed of H+ ions, which give the ocean some acidity. Pure water is practically impossible to obtain as once 2 water molecules interact, the decompose releasing 4H+ ions and O2. This process is accelerated by heat, which explains the oxygen gas given off by hot water (aka steam). This oxygen has a high amount of kinetic energy however, when it's kinetic energy drops it doesn't rebond with 2H+ molecules unless it gains a lot more energy and a large pressure increase. As a matter of fact, if the organic oxygen molecule falls below a certain temperature (below 290kelvin to be precise) it permanently loses the ability to react with 2 H+ ions to reform pure water. Once the oxygen from the ocean is completely gone, humans will evolve to live off other gases e.g. chlorine gas or methane, which will worsen climate change.

Weather is: "the state of the atmosphere with respect to heat or cold, wetness or dryness, calm or storm, clearness or cloudiness" So basically humidity, temperature, wind and cloud cover. The Weather in Denver is as easily defined as the Weather of Earth, and just as impossible to give as a precise value for humidity, temp, wind or cloud cover. Because from spot to spot, and moment to moment it will vary. This is true of everything in the universe. GasGuzzler wrote:...highs ranging from the -50s to 115....you'll want to pack your speedo and a parka. Yeah, kinda. Why did you say -50 to 115 ? Why not 700 degrees? I mean could it be 700 degrees? That's the temperature we measured on Venus. Oh and could Venus be -50s too? Do we have no idea? Everything every measured has a range gentleman.

Weather is: "the state of the atmosphere with respect to heat or cold, wetness or dryness, calm or storm, clearness or cloudiness" So basically humidity, temperature, wind and cloud cover. The Weather in Denver is as easily defined as the Weather of Earth, and just as impossible to give as a precise value for humidity, temp, wind or cloud cover. Because from spot to spot, and moment to moment it will vary. This is true of everything in the universe. So you have correctly described weather as a set of quantifiable values. What you fail to realize (yet again) is that while these values can be measured at a particular location at a particular time, the measurements are only good for that particular location for that particular time. They do not describe any other location or any other time. tmiddles wrote: GasGuzzler wrote:...highs ranging from the -50s to 115....you'll want to pack your speedo and a parka. Yeah, kinda. Why did you say -50 to 115 ? Why not 700 degrees? I mean could it be 700 degrees? That's the temperature we measured on Venus. Oh and could Venus be -50s too? Do we have no idea? We have no idea. One thermometer cannot measure the temperature of any planet. tmiddles wrote: Everything every measured has a range gentleman. EVERYTHING Correct. You fail to realize this.

IBdaMann★★★★★ (14450)	tmiddles wrote: What would a "random" measurement even be? I can answer that for you. Temperature differences affect the measuring device. Excessive temperatures affect the measuring device greatly, but we don't know how much. The same goes for pressure. We can assume that both the temperature and pressure on Venus where the probe landed was pretty high. We don't know how high and we don't know how the specific temperature and pressure at that moment threw off the temperature reading, i.e. Unknown Temperature +/ Unknow Error. Hmmm. Wait! This measurement is a random value. We don't what we're getting. . I don't think i can [define it].
