SNOWFALL will become “A very rare and exciting event… Children just aren’t going to know what snow is.” Dr David Viner – Senior scientist, climatic research unit (CRU) “Winters with strong frosts and lots of snow like we had 20 years ago will no longer exist at our latitudes.” – Professor Mojib Latif (2000) “Good bye winter. Never again snow?” – Spiegel (2000) “Milder winter temperatures will decrease heavy snowstorms” – IPCC (2001) Among others documented here... https://climatism.blog/2019/11/18/snowfall-will-signal-the-death-of-the-global-warming-movement/ https://climatism.blog/2019/11/18/snowfall-will-signal-the-d...

Ah, David Viner's quote. He wasn't actually quoting from a research paper or anything there though, was he? He produced an (ill-judged) quote for a newspaper. I like the was that Climatism tried to link the IPCC to it - but only comes up with... "Warmer winters and fewer cold spells because of climte change will decrease cold-reloated mortality'. Are you arguing that there haven't been warmer winters and fewer cold spells in temperate countries?

When a Climate Scientist, recognized as an expert, makes a declarative statement, that statement will be in the minds & discussions more than a scientific paper. Re: the science, there is plenty of criticism & the statements in the media by scientists, media, & politicians present more certainty than scientific papers. > “Milder winter temperatures will decrease heavy snowstorms” – IPCC (2001) > Are you arguing that there haven't been warmer winters and fewer cold spells in temperate countries? The entire statement is the prognostication for milder winter temperatures AND a decrease in heavy snowstorms. I'm not aware of a decrease in heavy snowstorms or milder winter temperatures. I am aware of adjustments to measured temperatures, by the NOAA, which make the 1930s adjusted to be cooler and modern temperatures adjusted to be warmer.
