Last winter we a more than a meter of snow and more than 100 days of continuous freezing temperatures.
Similar has happened once in the early '60s.

Now this summer the temperature has been for more than two weeks above 30 C.
This has not happened for 100 years in the Nordic countries.

Climate change is a very different subject, and different state of facts than those who belong to the Global Warming BS. We live in a dynamic planetary system which continually goes through climate change. That is a fact of life on our Earth-Moon system and has never been questioned. Now when some attempt to draw a coorelation based on ideology and linking human activities, primarily carbon output into the atmosphere as the MAIN cause of such variations, the discussion goes from science to a perceived conservationism based soley on "feelings". Our world was once frozen over as a snow ball, just as it was once a tropical oasis. Actually it was many times over both frozen and tropical, all when humans were millions, and sometimes billions of years from showing up from evolutionary lines. The farce of Global Warming is the conceit of the human condition to believe that we are so powerful that we could actually harm the Earth. We cannot. However, what we CAN do is harm the Earth is such a way that Human life is affected. A very different proposition. Our world has been bombared for all its nearly 4.5billion years in existence, and life has nearly been extinguished many times over, but each and every time, it has survived, and flourished, all without the "Terrible Hand" of humans.

I am all for everyone having a better understanding of the science and history of the Earth-Moon system (as it should be called-as there is alot of evidence that if not for our Moon, life itself may not have arose or survived on our world). Its only through an understanding of the history of our world that we may come to appreciate it and respect it, and realize that we can never tame it, only adapt to its changing will.

To put it into perspective, a good sized volcano eruption produces more CO2 than do all the World's cars in 5 years.

The people promoting climate change want to take more of your money as taxes and ultimately control what you do and how you live.

How long have we been keeping accurate records of weather? Maybe 125 years and thats stretching it. In the time the earth has been here, 125 years is nothing.

The climate change people take us for fools. That's not happening, at least not to me if I can help it!

But, but, but what about Al Gore? Don't you believe him? Didn't he and the fat boy make a movie that is proof positive? You mean you can't always believe what you see in the movies? Hehe.

In my part of the world we have had cooler winters and summers for a number of years. I can't sleep at night because I worry about global cooling...

Al Gore is such a fucking tool. He cries himself to sleep because no one listens to him anymore.
