Climate contradiction: Less snow, more blizzards

2 studies detail global warming, extreme weather

WASHINGTON — With scant snowfall and barren ski slopes in parts of the Midwest and Northeast the past couple of years, some scientists have pointed to global warming as the culprit.

Then when a whopper of a blizzard smacked the Northeast with more than 2 feet of snow earlier this month, some of the same people again blamed global warming. How can that be? It’s been a joke among skeptics, pointing to what seems to be a brazen contradiction.

Time for a carbon tax.  Blizzards are a pain, a back pain!  But the corollary to this, more droughts and serious floods in the breadbasket of America--that's our food supply threatened.  We must do something.

Yes...we must keep trying to rework the facts and our story.

It was global warming...till Michael Mann got caught trying to hide the temperature decline.

Now its climate change....

if its sunny, if its windy, if its rainy, if it snows, if it doesn't snow, if it snows alot....  each one is a definate indicator of "climate change" and should result in an immediate additional transfer of money to Al Gore and other DNC supporters.

Climate change deniers always like to whine about some minor bit of data that is not exactly as expected.  They also try to hide their backing from big oil.  Either you are bought out by them or duped by them.

This is not getting any play in the general press, especially not from Fox News.

No idea if the link you put in leads to something factual...

 

but the fact that Rachel Maddow's name is associated.... tells me all I need to know.

Once I saw Michael Mann featured in this story, I knew it was fraudulet.
