Yesterday, I posted a couple of tongue-in-cheek items about global warming causing snow to fall in Baghdad and how Asia was getting some needed relief from global warming in the form of bitterly cold weather.
This is the sort of "journalism" that we read constantly... only the authors who point to every weather anomaly sincerely believe they are making the case for runaway global warming.I could have easily added more absurd items about global warming causing the mountains of California to be covered in dangerous levels of snow or how snow was falling in South America now during their summer. But you get the point.
Everything proves that global warming is happening... whether our logic steadfastly refuses to make the connection or not.The problem is that weather records cover only slightly more than a century and the conditions and equipment used to record temperatures are constantly changing... perhaps not for the better.
The point of all of this is that from the perspective of the human condition, if there has been global warming, the extent has been so negligible that Baghdad can have its first snow in 100 years, South American can have snow in the summer, California mountains can be buried in snow, and central Asia can have weather so bitter that people are freezing to death in their cars.
The globe obviously has not warmed enough!..
