Is this global warming too?

The UN said that man caused global warming so this must be our fault!

It was -50 last week in the Yukon but the permafrost is still melting. A cold day does not disscredit global warming. Winter still arrives every year in the arctic but the ice cap is still gettin thinner.
Best leave scientists to science.

the same science that said the Ivory Bill was extinct ? The certain kinds of fish were extinct millions of years ago ? That asbestos is a great thing to have in your home ? The same science that called Pluto a planet for how long?

yeah ....... science ......... uh huh ....... they are masters of hypothesis, theory and guesstimate and they produce it all as FACT

What about the idea of hot and cold air mixing causing more and more violent storms? Also i can remember the weather being close to -20 for over a month here and we even had areas of -50 quite common. So to get a blast of it in the winter isn't really all that bad when I look at growing up here. I can also remember hugh snow drifts that were quite common but, not right at least. I also hope not but if it does it wouldn't be to much out of place for us here.I used to wear snow shoes all the time in the woods with around 4-5 feet of snow. Right now it is around 6 inches here, but, winter has a ways to go yet. However i can see some real changes going on here.

Some places are warmer than usual, while others arehaving record lows. Sounds like regular 'ol weather to me.

"Global Warming" isn't science, it's theory at best--like the "Global Cooling" theory of the 70's. Plenty of "scientists" on both sides of the aisle.

I'll go with that. It's a theory at best. The world is so old that it's really difficult for anybody to know exactly what is going on, no matter what the scientist say...

I heard on the radio this morning that today's U.N global warming conference in New York has been cancelled due to cold... Such delightful irony...
