Also when the temperature drops below 0°F for a few days in a row, you'll rarely see snow. In Alaska, it's pretty common to have 0-degree temps this time of year. The fact that it's snowing in record amounts means - it is WARM enough to snow, when normally it would not be.

I'm sure your grandchildren are going to be really pleased with this attitude when they're trying to live in a world where our generation refused to see what we are doing to the planet.

The three stages of climate change denial:
1) claim that there is no climate change; when this gets untenable go to: 2) claim there is climate change but it's not caused by human activity; when this gets untenable go to: 3) claim that there is climate change, caused by human activity, but we can do nothing about it. It is no coincidence that each of these "beliefs" let's the believer get off without having to do anything. Other than continually referring to it as "global warming" so they can point to a bit of snow and go back to Stage 1. The vast majority of scientists now accept that the average temperature of the Earth is rising. Yes, the climate has always been in a state of change, but it is the RATE of the current change that is unprecedented, and clearly linked to the amount of greenhouse gases that humans have been pumping into the atmosphere since the start of industrialization. The current rate of change is so fast that nature can't keep up. But nothing anyone says will convince the climate change deniers that they are wrong, as being wrong means they don't have to do anything different and can continue to live profligate, wasteful lives.

Our oldest lived in Fairbanks for 8 years. He compares weather (living in a polluted city) and current weather in Fairbanks (still polluted), stays pretty consistent
Snowfall factor remains about the same, of how many feet, small difference in glaciers, each summer both volunteered at remote glaciers, tundra’s for testing. The big difference is moose behavior, and sacred Raven snatching a 30 pound black garbage bag, or trying for one of the dogs. Wildlife life seems to be changing to more city life, than in the past 20 years. Easy picking for garbage and meat curing outside of back doors in community

Me? I'm an agnostic when it comes to this issue. But I surely wouldn't mind a few palm trees and citrus orchards in Minnesota (southern part, at least). |

https://www.climate.gov/sites/defaul...118-1400px.png This chart in hundred of degree so it look like we will burn in hail in couple years of actual almost 1 degree. You can find chart to backup your beliefs by pinpointing short look in time. IMO world over population and deforestation CAUSING ALL problems and will continue regardless unless we can control them. |

[QUOTE=blueash;2274012]Your son living in Alaska hardly qualifies you or him as an authority on climate change. If he hasn't noticed a change in Alaska's glaciers, he is not paying attention or hasn't been there long enough to know the 20th century baseline.
************************************************** ********************************((**************** ******************** If one read my post I commented on SNOWFALL hasn’t had much of a change. As has the core sample of glaciers. State of Alaska hires physicians with extensive forensic background to core test glaciers and tundra, which results have stayed consistent. The glaciers, and tundra, that he and his team were dropped off, have Never been seen by the standard visitor. It would be too dangerous to regular public, only way in is a chopper backpacks, equipment and every person has Two firearms. Every 30 days either they were picked up and moved to a different locations, or more supplies dropped. However your thoughts on his inability means when Smithsonian published him 3 times at age 22, 24, 26, (still the youngest) the youngest published for core samples of natives of Alaska. Guessing that 6 figure salary every summer for 8 years meant they were pleased with his ability. I will admit since he was at the top of his class, and turned down numerous colleges, medical school bills were few and far between, so on that thought, maybe instead of medical, he should have thought of education in global warming, cause 8 years of six figures for 3.3 summer months of work is sometimes not worth risk of life or limb Big difference in living in Alaskan culture for multiple years, and reading articles on the net. Plus you assume one that has educated experience to your ability to google stuff, is if lesser value. In Alaskan territory climate change as stated is noticeable by change of behavior in moose, and ravens, since they are leaving the wild, and entering into populations of humans. Bear have always been active in communities, so climate change may or may not be an issue. It’s also hard to determine if climate change effects the Nomadic culture, since they are continuously on the move, to search for food.

If you want to talk real climate change, read this.
Siberian Traps - Wikipedia The planet had two million years of volcanic eruptions. The Siberian Traps are believed to be the primary cause of the Permian–Triassic extinction event! And the planet is still here! “Experts” are saying we have only 10 years left to save the planet. |

Whomever coin the title global warming should be taken to the woodshed; it really is climate change.
I don't think at this point anyone can deny that the climate is changing. The question is, is this due to mankind or is this the earth going through a normal cycle. I'm not a scientist and cannot answer that question. But what is obvious man is polluting air, land and water on the pursuit for profits. |
