How global warming can cause Europe's harsh winter weather
Deutsche Welle ^ | 02.11.2021 | Jeannette Cwiek

As Germans shiver through double-digit negative temperatures and more than 80 centimeters (30 inches) of snow in parts of the country, climate science deniers have taken to social media to argue that global warming is a hoax.

Their claim — which has been repeatedly debunked by climate scientists — is that extremely cold weather shows that carbon dioxide emissions are not warming the Earth.

In fact, the effects of global warming may even have favored the extremely cold temperature. The past week’s sub-zero temperatures and heavy snowfalls are more than just a cold winter. They are made more likely by the collapse of the polar vortex — a huge ring of cold winds raging in the Earth’s stratosphere — at the North Pole. […]

Through the burning of fossil fuels, people have heated the planet by more than 1 degrees Celsius (1.8°F) since the Industrial Revolution. The decade from 2010 to 2019 was the hottest on record. Climate change, however, doesn’t only lead to higher temperatures, but more extreme weather.

This is where the disproportionate warming of the Arctic comes into play, said Stefan Rahmstorf, head of the Earth System Analysis research department at the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research (PIK). Temperatures in the Arctic have risen more than twice as fast as the global average over the past 40 years. “These changes are affecting the weather in Europe.” …

We should be more worried about global "debunking"!
A greater pestilence has never been.

Global Climate Change is caused by mask non-compliance.

Not only are you killing Grandma for refusing to wear a mask, you're freezing her to death as well.

So the next heat wave will be caused by global cooling?

Lesson for today:
1. The sun is 1,300,000 times as big as the earth.
2. The sun is a giant nuclear furnace that controls the climates of all its planets.
3. The earth is one of the sun’s planets.
4. The earth is a speck in comparison to the size of the sun.
5. Inhabitants of the earth are less than specks.
Study Question: How do less-than-specks in congress plan to control the sun?

Yup, I guess we missed our January thaw due to globull warming.

It’s been stinking cold this month, to boot.

I believe that “non-falsifiability” - the idea that no possible state of affairs can prove a theory wrong - is a sign of a bogus theory, because it has no predictive value.

GSM on time, as predicted. So let’s make believe it’s really global warming.

Global warming causes tooth-decay, too.

It also causes jungle rot, creeping crud and fallen arches.

Don’t forget that you can fit 1.3 million earths inside the sun’s volume.

Got it. Warming is causing cooling.

Now do voter machines love democrats more than republicans so that’s why they manufacture votes for them.

It wasn’t that long ago that I was reading that climate was suppose to be cooling based on anticipated cyclical solar activity. Looks like those folks might have gotten it right.

From 1900 to 2000, the temperature increase has been 9/10ths of a degree. Half of that happened around the first world war, the rest in the vicinity of 1985-95.

The theory of CO2 as THE climate driver has been proven false BY SCIENCE.
