The little ice age is CAUSED BY

global warming.

I kid you not, there’ll be a leftist out there that says as much.

It probably also has something to do with my “white privilege” and that I once looked towards a Confederate flag.

They used to grow grapes and make wine in Britain

The English wine industry, revived in a small way in the 1950s, is now flourishing, with some of the sparking whites beating champagnes in blind tastings. 500 vineyards and more acres of vines planted every year. See the English wine association website: English Wine Association

Hmmm.

British pensioners get winter fuel allowance from the Govt and help with heating and heating costs. You make the UK sound like some hellhole.

Also very few UK houses have stoves these days, the ‘newer’ houses (ie those built since the 60’s) have central heating as a legal requirement. Unless they live in some old big house, UK old folks like in a home with central heating and a fire, either coal or electric, usually the latter.

Kind of like the new ice age in the 1970’s, huh?
I lived through that one, glad I bought stock in Coppertone.

When I was very young, I remember a book that taught about the 100,000 year cycle of cooling and warming. It would become warmer for 10,000 years or so, and then return to another 100,000 years of ice. Many theories have tried to explain this reality. It is going to get colder. Even if we purposefully pumped C02 and methane into the atmosphere, when the Sun cools, so will we. The current GloBull Gloaming computer ‘models’ cannot compute clouds, and do not take into account the fluctuations of the Sun. In other words, those ‘models’ are crap!

No, more like the one from 1645 to 1715.

That was actually just a bit of sarcasm; but the way the scientific community has been prognosticating the weather and climate for the last 20 years, I think I will purchase even more stock in Coppertone.
