Jim Treacher adds:

When you’re using your homemade “STOP GLOBAL WARMING” sign to shield your face from blowing snow in the middle of March, it’s time to take a good long look at the process by which you make decisions.

Indeed, but the global warming alarmists have proven that they’re nothing if not impervious to bald-faced truths. Even if those truths are in the form of frozen snow being blown into their faces by a brisk, chilly wind.

    Well, it appears in part to be the result of such.

    A very interesting assertion, taking into account that the often-used “statistic” of global mean temperature may be entirely fictional. See article in the Reader Blogs, if you have the courage.

    Ha!… I guess it just isn’t cold enough for them? That is too funny!

    Yeah, and somebody seems to be confusing the ever opportunistic Al Gore with someone who knows what he’s talking about.

    In other words, particular weather events (be they a devestating hurricane like Katrina or a snow storm in D.C.) say nothing about the overall climate of the planet.

  • http://ingenuus.blogspot.com/ Grotius

    Whatever the merits of climate change claims (and it is apparent that we are in a generally warmer world than a hundred years ago) a snowy day in winter is not evidence against an overall climate trend. Someone seems to be confusing the “weather” with, well, climate.

    Fine, it is a joke then.

    …and to suggest that the current warming trend is the fault of human activity seems to be a rather stupid thing to believe given historical trends.

    Well, it appears in part to be the result of such. The major focus of the debate these days is centered on issues of intensity and the role of the government (if any) in dealing with the issue.

    Ronald Bailey has some interesting things to say about these issues here: http://www.reason.com/news/show/36811.html

    Zsa zsa,

    Gore Effect: The observed phenomenon of record and or unseasonably cold weather coinciding in time and place with public events intended to dramatize the dangers of humanocentric global warming. See also God remains an iron.

    Grotius

    Reliable weather data has been collected for only about 100 years. You tell me you’re going to predict climate change based on 100 years of data for a rock that’s 6 billion years old? Consensus does not mean fact. … Don’t drink the Kool-Aid.

    The Earth has periods where it heats up and when it cools, and it’s folly to look at short-term data to form long-term policy. Which is more arrogant — to say we caused global warming or that we can fix it?

    I wonder what Al Gore is thinking everytime he sees a winter storm alert?? Is he thinking; OH good! OR is he thinking; Darn I have been exposed for the dope I really am? Hmmm…

  • Eneils Bailey

    Sometimes I wonder what the US Government did a million years ago, when it was warmer than it is now.

  • Paulie B

    Let’s blow up the sun. That’ll git ‘er done.

    Grotius, I’ve yet to see any really convincing argument to suggest that the current warming trend we’re on (because I agree that the globe is warming) is caused by human activity or can be slowed or stopped by modifying human behavior. And until those things are proved I don’t think any government intervention is necessary. Outside of research into the matter, that is.

  • http://sayanythingblog.com robport

    Grotius, this was intended as a joke…not a detailed refutation of the global warming theory.

    And while the globe may be generally warmer than a century ago, it is certainly much cooler now than it was a few million years ago. Our planet has gone through eons of warming and cooling trends, and to suggest that the current warming trend is the fault of human activity seems to be a rather stupid thing to believe given historical trends.
