   This is caused by the permafrost leaking out of the ground along with the methane.

   Sadly, in the near future, Russian children will not know what permafrost is.

     Because its not caused by a heatwave in Russia. It appears the Bill McNutKibben’s in the AGW/CC movement aren’t giving this much attention.

     Only heatwaves in Russia are a proof of CO2 AGW/CC. Coldwaves are just weather.

     I’ll see your 45 and raise you 270:
     “COLD IN RUSSIA.
     270 DEATHS. LONDON, January 28.
     The cold has been so intense in Russia during the past week that many people in famine-stricken districts have perished. In Odessa, where the Czar’s subjects have suffered awful privations, 270 persons have been frozen to death.”

       I’ll see your 270 and raise you 600. This figure is expected to rise even further, as another emergency unfolds again for the second time this year.

       “The spate of cold weather that has lasted for weeks in many parts of Europe has now claimed at least 600 lives. Eastern Europe is the worst affected. The main reason for the high number of deaths is not the extreme cold temperatures per se, but rather the drastic austerity measures implemented in recent years and the widespread destruction of social infrastructure.”

       “It’s the worst cold snap in Russia in over 70 years. Hundreds have already frozen to death across Eastern Europe. But you won’t be hearing about this in the mainstream media.”

   But here in DC, the roses are in bloom. What a terrible thing. Better to freeze according to McKibben.
