   Global warming created mosquitos in the Arctic responsible for unemployment. lol

   “It was a strange place to get an email with the news of my lay-off: An Alaska field station 150 miles north of the Arctic Circle where the sun doesn’t set in July. I was about to get on a helicopter (thanks to a two-week science journalism grant) with biologists who study how arctic fire is changing earth’s climate. Been sleeping in a cold tent, fending off mosquito swarms and happily roaming over moss-green tundra, the lavender peaks of the Brooks Range in the distance.”

   Steve,

   I can’t find that quote anywhere. can you post the direct link?

   all I am finding is this.

   “Children just aren’t going to know what snow is,” he said.
   “”We’re really going to get caught out. Snow will probably cause chaos in 20 years time,”

     Yes, children are stupid, like entertainers. They won’t be able to see the three foot deep snow.

     ‘The winters are warming up far more than the summers. There’s no snowfall any more,’ said Dr David Viner of the Climatic Research Unit at the University of East Anglia.
