record snow
 

There will be ups and downs but when enough ice and snow melts around the poles it will get hotter and hotter.

New Study Finds Most Of Antarctica Has Cooled By Over 1°C Since 1999…W. Antarctica Cooled 1.8°C

Significant West Antarctic Cooling in the Past Two Decades Driven by Tropical Pacific Forcing in: Bulletin of the American Meteorological Society Volume 104 Issue 6 (2023)

Snowfall amounts do NOT negate Global Warming. It takes WARM air to create snow (when cold air meets WARM air). Scientists take thousands of reading over the whole earth and also the ocean. remember the ocean is rising from melting ice at BOTH poles and MORE rapidly than scientists expected.
........So Anchorage has some snow....big deal......statistically, that is an N or ONE. Just ONE reading on a whole earth full of readings that point to the CONCLUSION that the last 8 or 10 years show dangerous warming that is MAN-MADE.
........but nice try, I am sure that the DENIERS will run hard with this thread. I can't wait to see the "200 million years ago we started into a warming period.....and NOT man-made".

Global Warming is totally FAKE….
 

Exactly correct. The biggest Fleecing of America and the World ever.

Anyone interested in things like this should watch the documentary "Life on Our Planet" - will make you think twice about our frail existence. We are relative newcomers to Earth and probably not destined to last long. We will be the first species to bring about our own mass extinction. The film is on Netflix.

Air quality IS better today than it was when I was a child. Money HAS been spent, sometimes wasted on ideas. The only way to completely rid our planet of man made pollution is to get rid of mankind, period. And that ain't gonna happen. Humans have populated the world for thousands of years. I don't care what research is done under the guise of a cure for global warming, climate change and air quality. Just don't force me to pay for it when there are a lot of wealthier folks exploiting the environment for their own enjoyment. As long as the law allows it, I will use fossil fuel, burn wood in my smoker(or charcoal) and run my A/C. As far as global warming is concerned, I am all for it. I didn't move to Florida for the sand, sand fleas and swamps. And I didn't move here for snow skiing either. I'm one more vote for warm weather and sunshine. :clap2:

I remember when "Hot enough for you today?' wasn't a multi thread conversation starter. Moving to dog poop status on the TOTV meter.

Global Warming
 

Global warming affects ALL the seasons. We should learn more about the scientific and proven effects of it instead of dismissing it

Nicely put. And use an open mind but throw some critical thinking into the mix.

This is an isolated incident. Why are you challenging Global Warming? Last summer was the hottest on record.

I've got some carbon credits leftover if anyone wants to buy some.

In 1987 Asia produced 5.74 B tons of CO2, the U.S, produced 4.83 B tons. In 2021 Asia 20.70 B tons, U, S. 4.72 B tons. Our automobiles produce .375 B tons of CO2. If U.S. totally eliminated CO2 production Asia would bring worldwide production back to current level in 2 years. Go to ourworldindata.com and see what a pimple United States is the worldwide production of CO2. Do we have a right as a developed nation to tell the undeveloped nations they have to stay in the dark ages which is the only way to lower CO2 production worldwide. We humans have gotten where we are because we are adaptable. I think our adaptability will serve us well in the future not windmills, solar panels, and electric cars. My data came from ourworldindata.com.

Might want to backtrack a bit and learn the difference between a continent and a country. Asia is not a country. And, the continent of North America isn't made up exclusively of the US.

Also might consider looking down that webpage to the CO2 emissions per capita - you'll see Americans emit almost as much CO2 as China does, not quite as much as Australians do, and less than Saudi Arabians. But all other countries emit less per capita than the US.

Coldest winters in Reno lately
 

I live in Reno. Where our house is located east of the sierra mountains, we had a decade of only needing to shovel once or twice a winter. The past couple years we hired a shoveling service because we have been having regular snowfalls for months on end! The ski slopes in the past decade often couldn’t open until after the new year. One opened last week because it is so cold already. It seems part of typical patterns for the region if you read the history of the area.
