Description

I showed you this swamp about a month ago and it had some water in it and what I thought was a growth on top the water. I was wrong ;it is mud. That what you see mud and ground to walk on, little water. I do not watch the news on tv much but I did not hear of the world wide drought that is going on. On the net you see photos of the Amazon river is drying up and there a lot of boats on dry land now. I know the rain forests is new on the world time table. So I do not think it the cutting down of the rain forests that is doing this. It have to be a bigger picture. What you see is a big mud swamp now between Lafayette and Baton Rounge, Louisiana. It used to have water and you can go boating and fishing too. Thanks for looking and comments too even the ones that say it goble warming. I believe in the scietests that blame the Sun for the warming of the earth. ps I had it on the wrong setting on the lighting . I had it on indoor lights lol hope I got the color better

Too late now. Global Warming is on a role, and the best we can do is try to adapt. I don't believe that is it, anyway. We have had a pole shift. I think our whole axis is off whack, and it is happening alot quicker than they can explain. Anyhow...this is a great environmental awareness shot. You need to e-mail it to the white house.
