I think it started about 10 years ago according to my natural gas consumption increases year after year!
I’m thinking 7 years ago. but I’m with you. What’s 3 years to argue about when we’re facing an ice age?
I’ve never seen anything like this before. It’s June 10th and the tree’s are still in budding stage, just barely putting out leaves. Fruit tree’s have just started blooming, not that there are any bees flying around in these arctic-like temps (4c right now (39f), when it should be around 21c or better 70f.)
Yes global warming alarmism is bunk, but we should be developing more compelling arguments against it than personal extrapolations from one's heating bill to large planetary trends.
Oranges used to grow in St. Augustine a hundred years ago (the northern part of Florida) - the "orange" line has been moving south ever since. Now it's slightly below the middle of the state. In spite of Al Gore's idiocy - it seems global cooling has been going on for some time.
