Which is why the phrase 'climate change' is preferred to 'global warming'.
Mean global temperatures will rise, and a key result of this may well be higher variability, with correspondingly more extreme weather events. There is no sense in which a freak snowfall disproves climate change: quite the reverse.
- Shivetya 14y agoGranted, but a little over a hundred years ago there were some might fine blizzards not equaled since. I think they key here is, people lost interest when every little thing was declared global warming and then started rolling their eyes when the switch was made to "climate change". Fanaticism has a tendency to cause people to tune out, worse is when its driven to political and financial benefit of a few.
- nice1 14y agoWhy should mean global temperatures rise? There seems to be no actual evidence for this.
