A couple of observations; We need to be careful that we don't confuse climate and weather. They are two different concepts. If we are seeing a greater amount of weird weather than normal ("if")- that could be an indicator of warming even if the weird weather in the winter or early spring is colder than normal temperatures. How so? It's the general warming of the earth, and most particularly the warming of the poles, that is the problem. A rise of several degrees in temperature at the poles will somewhat disrupt the currents of air and ocean water that travel from the poles toward the tropics and back due to the simple physics that warm air (and warm water) rises and cold air and cold water falls. As winds and currents shift, weather becomes more unpredictable. Pointing out freaky weather conditions around the country actually supports the theory you oppose, and I just thought you might like to consider that factor. I know, Rush loves to get on the radio and talk about the coldest part of the country on a particlar day and crow that a cold spot here or there must mean that the average temperature of the planet cannot be rising. The shameful thing is, I suspect that Rush actually knows better. He's merely toying with his gullible audience. What sort of boat does a male prostitute own, Fred? Why not post something more directly related to boating once in a while? |
