Of course Scotland has a mild climate in places where people live, probably comparable to coastal Norway. However, the article discusses Scotland being snow-free even in the mountains where it is rare that the snow melts all the way.
- skippyboxedhero 4y agoRight, and my issue is that people are exceedingly eager to read their own opinions into random events. This man goes up a hill and looks around for snow, apparently they have been doing this for 300 years...are you aware that the UK doesn't have weather statistics that old? I would think that the evidence for climate change is reasonably strong given the statistics showing temperatures are changing and the science explaining how this is happening...unfortunately, there is a large contingent of humanity who insist on reading climate change in every event. I have a guy, presumably from the US, who is informing me with great authority about what the weather is like near my house...okay, can't believe I am such a dirty climate change denier for observing that this guy's totally unscientific musings aren't useful (if you didn't know the BBC churns out stories like this all day, every day...man falls over? Climate change. Man coughs loudly in doctor's surgery? Climate change again).
