More and more articles are coming out with the author using the terms “CO2” “greenhouse gas” and “climate” interchangeably.
CO2 worship is quite likely the weirdest religion ever devised – complete with prophets, prophecies of doom, guilt, penance, sacrifice, intolerance, faith, and most notably – refusal to accept reality.
It is written in the books of the IPCC – the glaciers shall be gone in 25 years.
They must have been driving a lot of Hummers in the 16th century. Do these people have any clue how completely FOS they sound?

“There is one striking feature that has been observed and that is that most of the extreme events like hurricanes, tropical storms, heat waves, rainfall are regional in nature and it would be difficult to generalise or make projections on a global scale,” Dr. Asrar said.
However, the magnitude and frequency were showing an upward trend.
The episodes of high temperatures were likely to be more frequent than cold. The heat wave in July in Russia was worse than the heat wave of Europe in 2003, which was in a class of its own.
The heat wave in Russia was unprecedented since the 1500s.
“These events, which are large in magnitude and different from past events, support the IPCC findings that the frequency, magnitude and extent of events are going to be different from the past,” he added.
Even the IPCC’s fourth assessment report warned that the number of heat waves was going to increase and warm nights are on the rise. Dr. Asrar said the heat was drying the soil and causing droughts in some parts.
Using the case studies of extreme events in the last decade, it was possible to project that extreme events would be greater in the future, he said.
The frequency of tropical storms, hurricanes, cyclones would be higher in magnitude as the IPCC had said.
It added so much value to our lives for so many years.
Just kidding. I miss the old days when you would see burned out football trains on the way into London.

Global warming could plunge North America and Western Europe into a deep freeze.
If we don’t take drastic action, this sucker is just going to collapse. It only needs to warm up eighty-eight degrees to reach the freezing point.

Nice! Now if they could just figure out how to forecast the coming week.
