Our first snowfall was right on time.... It should have been later, considering we are still coming out of 'The Little Ice Age' which ended in the mid 1800's. We have more than 2 degrees to go to reach the AVERAGE global temp of the Renaissance.

I don't deny there is a climate, and I certainly do not deny it changes. I do deny the political and media NARRATIVES of climate change, which make absolutely NO SENSE in the records we actually can put a name to. Most 'Climate Scientists' use very vague interpretations of millenia old ice cores. I would argue those are deliberately ignorant.

I'm not going to listen to someone denigrating climate scientists.

I ice fish, I ski, I skate. My favorite sport is hockey. My hobbies revolve around cold snowy weather and I'm worried about the future. I've seen changes from even when I was growing up.

Climate scientists are not using vague interpretations. We're on borrowed time regarding climate action.

The end.

I'm not denigrating. I'm elucidating. The US Federal Government has prioritized CO2 and CO2 only research. Thus, these 'Scientists' are narrowly focused and thus apply a 'constant' to a plethora of other real factors, such as solar activity, earth magnetic shifts, etc. etc. I'm sure you have already studied and understand each of the 100+ discounted factors. Have fun skiing.

LOL @ your 'borrowed time' comment. The planet was over 2 degrees warmer during the relatively recent "Renaissance" than it is today ffs. The 'crisis' is manufactured.
