Dear Donald Trump: Winter Does Not Disprove Global Warming


Dear Donald Trump: Winter Does Not Disprove Global Warming

Chris Mooney - Jan. 2, 2014 http://www.motherjones.com/blue-marble/2014/01/blizzards-dont-refute-global-warming


An intense blizzard, appropriately named Hercules, is about to blanket the Northeast. Antarctic ice locked in a Russian ship containing a team of scientists—en route, no less, to do climate research. Record low temperatures have been seen in parts of the US, and in Winnipeg, temperatures on December 31 were as cold as temperatures on...Mars.

So as is their seasonal wont, here come the climate skeptics. Exhibit A:

Donald J. Trump
This very expensive GLOBAL WARMING bullshit has got to stop. Our planet is freezing, record low temps,and our GW scientists are stuck in ice

He's nothing but an egotistical, bloviating, overexposed gasbag fraud. STFU already!

Just take a look at Australia. They've been getting high temps of over 120 degrees.

It is rare to see good, heavy snowfall winters any more where I am located. There was one 4-5 years ago that was pretty decent. I am not fond of driving in heavy snow, but I do think that we need more snowpack than we have been getting recent years. I have not seen a winter of the type I remember from my childhood since, well, my childhood.
