Yes it is, as is clearly shown by the graph below.
(P.S. This is a generic graph that proves nothing. But if Al Gore can simply make stuff up, so can I.)
The mayor or guv (Boston or MA) was on TV this morning saying he hopes that the cold weather and flooding puts to rest the concern we all should have about global warming. I just scratched my head and wondered if they really are that stupid.
I remember growing up in LA area and my lungs hurting from being outside running around. They told us to go inside and not be too active on “smog days”.
I remember those as well. I've lived in central NY State since the end of the 70's, and we've had below zero weather that's lasted for ages.
I remember being stranded in Lancaster, Pa. in January of 2000, on my way back up north from S.C. The East Coast had had a storm with wet snow and sleet, that had then frozen. I ran into freezing rain driving through Richmond. By the time I stopped at Fredericksburg for the night, everything was frozen solid. Even the shopping mall there was closed.
It was a horrible drive from Fredericksburg to Lancaster. Once you crossed the Pa. line, there was about 3-4 inches of ice with nothing but ruts the whole way. It actually wore my tires down. Before the storm, I had planned on going to the outlet malls in Lancaster, but they were all closed too because of the ice storm. I checked into the Super 8 motel there, thinking I'd just stay overnight, but ended up having to stay for three days because the temperatures were frigid. Windchill was something like -50. My car wouldn't start, so I called AAA. The woman laughed when I told her I needed a jump to start my car. Her response was, "and where do you think you'd be going if you did get your car started?" I told her I lived in NY State. She advised me that Route 81 was closed due to snow, ice, jack-knifed tractor trailers, etc. So I hunkered down in my hotel room. Then they started the "rolling blackouts" to preserve energy. I was sitting in my hotel room, watching TV, and all of a sudden the power went out. I discovered later that the power company had had to begin the blackouts in order to keep the system from being overloaded. I look back at it and laugh now, but it wasn't fun at the time.
Depending on the wind direction, the south side of Chicago in the 40’s and 50’s was no field of daffodils thanks to the stock yards and the petroleum/ steel industries in NE Indiana. And the cat food factories on the Gulf Coast? Oh boy! Point is the air is infinitely better than it used to be.
Whatever works, right Al?
The al gore effect.. Was he visiting?
If we had some global warming ....

Frozen thumb up!
And that's why they initially named it "Global Warming".
So, since the 1970s, the name has changed from Global Cooling to Global Warming to Climate Change, to the new name Climate Crisis.
The correct name is: Climate
It doesn’t snow anymore.
Helluva graph!
What weather doesn’t prove “climate change” as far as they are concerned? It appears that there isn’t any weather or weather pattern that doesn’t prove their stupid theory, as far as they are concerned.
