In 1986, we started to build a seed plant in -32 degree weather. We were hoarding and the propanetanks were being filled almost daily. People said we were loco looney. By mid Jan it warmed up and a lot of the building was done in shirt sleeves. I have pictures of us in short-sleeved shirts on the roof during mid Feb. February can be very warm. But beware the ides of March!

Climate change per se is not awful. It is the rate of change that causes problems. I have not seen anything like this in my lifetime. That is the scary part.

climate change has been going on forever. it includes warming and cooling. just imagine these last few days how many furnaces have not been spewing co2. more beneficial than that of any carbon tax.

Your lifetime is a millisecond in the age of the earth and we have only been keeping records for a couple of milliseconds.....

Good timing for this news as most of North America has has cooler,wetter weather. When they look out their window they don't see global warming.
6 yr drought is broken on the left coast.
They say they were taxed for water shortages but now expect to have to pay for damages due to surplus water damages.
Nobody saw any urgency to repair the dam because the climate had changed.
Tough time to be a strawberry picker as the fields are muddy but the harvest has to happen as berries have a short harvest window.
Shit show!!!! as SF3 says.

I'm going to enjoy forwarding that link to some the people I had to endure lectures from for being close minded for arguing against a carbon tax.

Dire warning of Abdussamatov - head of space research at Pulkovo.

We have entered into the 19th Little Ice Age since 7500 years ago. Sunspots are disappearing from the face of our sun, just like they disappeared during the Little Ice Age in the late 1600's. It will impact industry, agriculture, living conditions, and development.

An overheated planet has never been a threat, not today, not even in human history. An under heated planet, in contrast, is a threat humans have repeatedly faced, and now we are due again.

Abdussamatov concludes. It's time we took the threat of climate change, of the real climate change, seriously.
