If there’d been a carbon tax none of this would have happened.

Global Warming in UK too
Apparently it was -11C last night across large parts of UK and the cold front is spreading South

As titles go, that’s a pretty shit one, and declining in value by the hour.

Depends where in Antarctica you are talking about. Most of it is at a surprising elevation – over 2 or 3,000 metres. Inland it will be fucking appalling regardless of the time of year. On the coast though the average temperature can be 2-5 degrees in January – hardly Magaluf but not exactly Siberia in the depths of winter.

Have you noticed how met office, bbc and other media weather types say ‘4 degrees above normal’ instead of ‘4 degrees above average’. I first noticed this probably 10 or so years ago.
They’ll *say* it’s to make the science more accessible. I say it’s to continue the litany.
…will show you the current temps (mix of measured and estimated) around the globe. Quite good fun, but can tax a weak graphics processor.
The northern hemisphere is relatively warm at the moment. I’ve seen it show well down in the minus sixties in Siberia. Likewise in Antarctica (in southern winter).

Brexit, Russian collusion and Climate change. All three areas of fact free hysterical assertion by the broadcast media pushing propaganda designed for and by large scale corporates. If the first two are ‘solved’ or at least revealed to be politically motivated, do you think that finally some logic and common sense will be permitted on the third?
Actually I am rather more worried that when the first two elements of project fear – keep then divided and governable – are subdued, The Powers That Be will fetch the terrorist toy (surprisingly quiet of late) out of the box for another ‘outrage’.

I’ve just been in Australia, and he TV news has been banging on and on about how they’re having a record-breaking heatwave.
North America cold snap and Australia heatwave are weather. To get climate, you need longer-term averages.

Nobody has made the point that there are very very few thermometers in Antarctica and most of them are on the peninsula. In other words, we know sfa about the temperature in Antarctica although dodgy climate maths can be used to deduce it
Well, it is summer in Antartica with 24-hours-a-day sunshine …
Cold season in location A colder than warm season in location B, shock horror.
Snow is a thing of the past
‘As deep freeze grips US, Chicago will be colder than Antarctica this week’
. . . and Trump will still be President, you fvcking LOSERS.
Despite Brexit
Its climate change that affecting Chicago and global warming that’s affecting the Antarctic.
Heads they win, tales you lose.
Global Warming/Climate Change – the original Project Fear
It’s cold. That’s weather. It’s hot. That’s climate change.
If there’d been a carbon tax none of this would have happened.
