Feb. 2014 to end of Feb. 2015 was the hottest 12 month period on earth in recorded history. As for the month of Feb. 2015 it was the hottest on record globally. The only place with significantly below average temps was the US east coast, where all the politicians spend their winters, thus the Inhoff spectacle, "It's cold where I am therefore it can't be getting warmer in the other 99% of the world".
Look at Russia, any wonder they are feeling aggressive, it's been a warm winter, could bode ill for their wheat if they have a hot spring.
Of course, there is a response for that. It comes in 4 parts:
ReplyDelete1. Global warming does not exist (it snowed at my house this year!).
2. To the extent that it does exist, it is not caused by humans.
3. To the extent that it is caused by humans, it's caused by China and India.
4. To the extent that it is caused by us, there's nothing we can do about it.
There. Now we can go on doing what we've been doing.
Thanks Katy. Don't forget:
Delete5) To the extend that it is caused by us and we grow a spine and muster the virtue to act then who will pay off the politicians when fossil fuel influence wanes?
