my view has always been that if there was a measurable change, there is no way we can tell whether (no pun) it was man made or not. and any attempt to address it was only to,
one, drain money from the American middle class, two, line the pockets of the climate change shysters.
and I still believe that.
but having said that, we just had Christmas in new England and it felt like april.
Here is a rule that you will do well to memorize: “Everything varies.” That was not original with me. It was imparted to me by an engineer at Caterpillar, named Jim Skelton.
So you had a warm-ish Christmas Day? Have you ever experienced a cool-ish July 4th?
Has it sunk in yet that there has been NO increase in overall global temp in 18 years?! Your balmy Christmas Day was caused by a brief serendipitous combination of wind direction, jetstream location, cloud cover or absence of it, etc. Next week when a completely different combination of meterological components has you freezing your bippy off, please don’t begin sounding the alarm for an approaching ice age.
When Noah and his family left the Ark, God promised Noah that He would never again flood the whole earth. God promised that the Earth would enjoy summer and winter, seedtime and harvest, cold and hot until The End. And if you have Christ as your personal Savior, The End is merely a portal to a glorious Eternity.
Merry Christmas.
Remember that scene in “White Christmas” (1954) where Bing gets off the train and says “Where’s the Snow?”.
