winterwatch questioning the sever lack of snow in Scotland this winter live from cairngorms That's 'weather' not 'climate' Do we know what the weather was like on 10th October 1066 in Hastings? No we do not and that, in epochal terms, is an infinitely small measure of time ago and yet we're drawning life-changing conclusions (vis-a-vis the socio-economic and political actions that are informed by these conclusions) from completely untrustworthy data - and to compound matters, attributing unmeasurable effects to 'man' rather than wholly natural, reoccuring phenomena (milankovitch cycles, albedo effect etc). The above merely makes me open-minded NOT a climate-change denier for the hard-of-thinking |

By:
Lack of snow ...climate change , lots of snow ….climate change ……
It is weather , and a growth industry. |
|
By:
All bases covered. It’s almost like a set up....

I am agnostic about the whole thing I DO NOT KNOW!
No armchair analyst on here will convert me one way or the other. |
|
By:
you couldn't have grown them north of Nice until a few years ago ,and they were by far the most northerly apart from a solitary windswept one in the Isles of Scilly which sometimes looks a bit worse for wear
Plants and animals will tell you the climate Humans can tell you the weather |
|
By:
There are many climates that vary quite a lot - I have been to most of them. You often have to change your clothing and lifestyle to acclimatise.
The latest climate change forecast is for east anglia to be underwater by 2050 CAUSED BY CLIMATE CHANGE etc etc. Sorry climateers, the weather beat you to it in 1953 when the place was devastated by an ingress of water and lots of people killed. Why has ever prediction been wrong/not happened etc and how do the dutch get with lots of their country being near or under sea level. |
|
By:
Palms in Torquay. Already there.
|
|
By:
been there for decades as far as I know
|
|
By:
parts of east anglia surely ?
i'm 177 ft above sea level lol |
|
By:
that is the prediction but it already happened in 1953 it is all on record with newsreel pictures and everything. All forgotten and not mentioned much these days and it wouldn't fit the Greta trademark and gore lying propaganda. Anyway we should be near siberian weather by now according to the hidden report that went to Bush in 2004

By:
Bitter yesterday in Sussex. Zero in the wind chill. Global heating long overdue. Will slash our gas bill.

By:
11c again here today ...fuschias and lavender flourishing ,Rhodedendrons all flourishing ,pasion fruit still hanging from trees ... flowers in every garden on my walk to the shops earlier
in the 1950s/60s it would be 7.5c about now for days on end |
|
By:
9c in Germany right now
these are countries that used to be buried under snow in January |
|
By:
2c in Stockholm right now
that would have broken records years ago |
|
By:
2c in Helsinki
|
|
By:
So less gas/oil/wood burnt for heat?
Job done. |
|
By:
They make much of the downside but little of the upside.
You won't hear me complaining about warm weather. |
|
By:
Indeed. Warmer drier weather = people walking not driving, strolling not bussing it.
True scientists would acknowledge the upside of a warmer country. |
|
By:
trouble is a warmer climate will see changes you do not want
invasive species able to breed in our climate for one , drying of rivers lochs etc causing toxic algae blooms , crop farming I imagine will struggle also as weather becomes more intense as we seen last year as weather becomes more violent either droughts or flooding etc obviously barbie sales will go up tho , always a winner somewhere |
|
By:
More skilled irrigation will deal with any drought.
Flooding needs to wonderful supply of water. Next! |
|
By:
last thing you want on these damp islands is any more warmth ... you will start getting all sorts of nasties .
a cool climate is a wonderful thing imo |
|
By:
We'll all have to move to Iceland.
|
|
By:
have you any idea the damage fish farming is doing oop north
|
|
By:
Nasties Coach? Like oranges and grapes?!
|
|
By:
fish farming is a nightmare
sea beds under cages dead , salmon practically dissolving alive , covered in 100s of lice many of them , effecting wild stocks , chemicals a plenty for many uses , one of the unregulated chems they used can impair brains ability to protect it from toxins , that was Norway tho add that to fact the high fat content makes them susceptible to toxins , ive also seen the pellets they are fed with are made from pulped waste salmon so even more toxins could be one of most toxic foods in world |

By:
injera ... we already have climates to grow oranges ...we don't need new ones .
