I attended NAU for a year and lived in Sedona for several years. In 1980 the ski area had twenty feet of snow on the ground. Other years they have almost none. The climate there changes every few weeks.
Note the climate destroying fireplace in the background.

Climate March organizers made up some ridiculous numbers claiming that they had 400,000 people in New York. People on the ground estimated that the actual number was about one third of that.
By contrast, between Twitter and WordPress I had an actual 400,000 views last week, with a carbon footprint about one ten millionth of the climate marchers.
North American winter snow coverage is an excellent proxy for how far south Arctic air is penetrating into the United States. During years when the cold air pushes further south, the snow line pushes further south, causing a larger area of snow coverage. Winter snow cover has been increasing in a hockey stick since the very warm winter of 1995, and is now at record levels.
The animation below correlates North American winter snow cover vs. raw and adjusted US winter temperatures. As you can see, the correlation with raw temperatures is better than the correlation with adjusted temperatures, indicating that the adjustments degrade their accuracy. All that the adjustments do is add noise and diminish the correlation.
The raw temperatures show a net winter cooling since 1970 in the US, but the NCDC adjusted temperatures show a net warming.
Every test I have made on USHCN adjustments shows that they are complete crap. Their only purpose is to turn cooling into warming – for political purposes.
The EPA says that CO2 is toxic.
The rise in CO2 of 1:10,000 since the year 1900 is equivalent to packing an extra eleven people into Michigan Stadium. I added those extra eleven people in green below.
By contrast, human lungs generate 400 parts per 10,000 CO2, or an extra 4,400 people in the stadium. I added them in green below.
One could easily come to the conclusion that the EPA has no idea what they are talking about.
NASA says that the Arctic is melting down, but the ice says that NASA doesn’t know what they are talking about. There has been no trend in Arctic ice for eight years. I circled the only two days in the last 8 years which NASA is familiar with.

Through September 26, the percentage of 90 degree temperature readings in the US has been the fourth lowest on record. The frequency of 90 degree days has been plummeting since the 1930’s, and occurred only half as often this year as they did in 1936

Dana is unhappy about 60% growth in the Arctic summer minimum sea ice extent, area and volume over the past two years – so he published these graphs which show Arctic ice falling off a cliff
Note that he cleverly left off the huge increase since 2012, and the second graph shows a sharp decrease from 1970 to 1979, which is in direct contradiction to satellite data from the 1990 IPCC report – which showed a 2 million km² increase from 1974 to 1979.
But Dana’s BS is worse than it seems. The CIA reported in 1974 that the ice had already increased 10-15% by 1974, which is again shown the opposite on Dana’s graph
Amundsen said the Northwest Passage was open in 1904, and it wasn’t in 2014
And Dana’s other fake graph somehow missed the fact that the Vikings traveled through open Arctic seas in the year 1122. The top graph shows almost 50% more ice around that time period.
Dana slimed his readers at so many different levels, that it must have been written by him. Arctic ice extent is second highest in the past decade.
