LOL! That’s why they have been wanting to call it climate change instead lately!

I remember deplaning in Logan (from Toronto, iirc) and pilot announced that it was 14 degrees. I heard a voice with a British accent saying, “It doesn’t feel like 14 degrees.” (14 C = 57.2 F). -10 C = +14F. Brrrr. While not uncommon in Boston, 14F is pretty rare in Britain.

I wish we’d get up to 14 degrees. I’d break out the bikini.

How much power do snow-covered solar panels and frozen windmills produce?

If extra CO2 in the atmosphere will warm things up, it's time to generate more CO2.

Snicker....although I shouldn't be snickering since here in California, they just passed some cap and trade thing. Yikes! BTW, here in Los Angeles we also happen to be having an unusually cold winter, plus it's turning out to be one of our wettest winters in awhile.

Took the time to look at the photos on your Freepsite.

Awesome, inspiring & tear jerking to this 62 year old curmudgeon!

God Bless your daughter, you and yours this Christmas Season.

Well, they could all burn some wood in their fireplaces, warming the house, and contributing to the CARBON in the air.

Or is that even legal over there?

Not sure, but, I’m sure the ration equates to the reliability of the batteries in electric cars and the lumens w/ CFL’s at 14F.

So what? "Climate Change" resulting in bitter cold cannot be caused by a rise in carbon usage - because that supposedly was the cause of 'warming.'

Solution - eliminate 90% of world government - but, even with that amount of reduction, humans would be faced with government still MUCH too large. LOL

LOL! I know! That's why their attempts at redeeming this junk science are so lame! The co2 that was somehow making things hot is now just causing "climate change"! Stupid stupid stupid!

The funny things is that these junk science people act as if the earth has some normal temperature it should maintain, and that fluctuations are always abnormal and bad. Silly liberals.

I wonder if that volcano Eyjafjallajškull added to all this?

They say the ash stays up there 6mos or so and the sulfur dioxide gas stays in the atmosphere for up to three years.

Last winter was exceedingly miserable. In fact, I was overjoyed when that March warm spell hit the US. And then Easter brought about summer-like conditions.
