Oregon is a shithole lately. The golf course here was entirely submerged in water, creating an enormous lake. There's probably dozens of newly created lakes around here where all the flat areas used to be, it's well fucked. And there's this fucking gloom and doom looking black cloud that just hovers around over here.
Dunno what that indicates - perhaps that increasing amounts of energy driving the weather system can push temperatures down as well as up. Or maybe it's just that interpreting statistics is rarely straightforward.
Vancouver recently had 26 days of straight rain :icon21: . In the middle of BC, where I grew up, temps are only dropping to -20 or so now instead of the constant -35 I remember as a kid.
Temps here in the Midwest US have been MUCH higher than normal this winter and Milwaukee even hit the odd record of 16 days w/o visible sunshine. It has been a really fucking grey winter out here.... (but I'm kind of happy - the temp hasn't gone below 0 almost at all).... :icon26:

Or it shows that the entire world won't follow a simple pattern. Some areas will be affected with heat while others may be submerged in water and some become frozen tundras.
Climate change is a natural occurance. We just speed up the process.
At least thats what i think
Where were you when the West was defeated?

yeah i mention theres a volcano thats erupting in alaska as we speak that has released more carbon dioxide in 2 weeks then all the cars in the world in the past 30 years...and there is no consensus between scientists that gw is caused by humans and may just be natural and it gets removed...good indication why drum not only should not be mod...but he should be bant...
a defining attribute of a government is that it has a monopoly on the legitimate exercise of violence...
