How freezing temperatures are starting to shatter climate change theory
Snowfall: Two mongrels enjoy today's fresh snow in Austria - the earliest snow since records began
In the freezing foothills of Montana, a distinctly bitter blast of revolution hangs in the air.
And while the residents of the icy city of Missoula can stave off the -10C chill with thermals and fires, there may be no easy remedy for the wintry snap's repercussions.
The temperature has shattered a 36-year record. Further into the heartlands of America, the city of Billings registered -12C on Sunday, breaking the 1959 barrier of -5C.
Closer to home, Austria is today seeing its earliest snowfall in history with 30 to 40 centimetres already predicted in the mountains.
Such dramatic falls in temperatures provide superficial evidence for those who doubt that the world is threatened by climate change.
But most pertinent of all, of course, are the growing volume of statistics.
According to the National Climatic Data Centre, Earth's hottest recorded year was 1998.
If you put the same question to NASA, scientists will say it was 1934, followed by 1998. The next three runner-ups are 1921, 2006 and 1931.
Which all blows a rather large hole in the argument that the earth is hurtling towards an inescapable heat death prompted by man's abuse of the environment.
Indeed, some experts believe we should forget global warming and turn our attention to an entirely differently phenomenon - global cooling.
The evidence for both remains inconclusive, which is unlikely to help the legions of world leaders meeting in Copenhagen in December to negotiate a new climate change deal.
There is no doubt the amount of man-made carbon dioxide, the gas believed to be responsible for heating up the planet, has increased phenomenally over the...

From the Daily Mail to the San Francisco Chronicle, the word is being spread.
Al Bore will just have to find a way to tax the snow.
It doesn't exist. Never did. The temperature goes up. The temperature goes down. So Al Gore, et al, stopped calling it "Global Warming" and started calling it "Climate Change." I call it: "The Weather."
Where’s Al Gore?
I distinctly remember him being out there a few years ago, during a summer heat wave, talking about global warming, and that a summer hot spell was evidence of that.
So, I expect Al Gore to go to Montana and comment on the cold early fall weather there. Of course now GLOBAL WARMING is now called CLIMATE CHANGE so they don’t get called on changes in day to day weather.
And the apologies from all of the hoax-pushers, top to bottom, are due to arrive in 5... 4... 3...
Ok. The announcement that crap and tax is being abandoned is due to arrive in 5... 4...
Ok. The announcement from the EPA that breathing isn’t destroying the environment?
Climate change legislation including Kyoto?
Refunds on carbon trading?
Reversal of cafe standards?
Guess not.
What global warming? In much of the U.S., we are already in the deep freeze and it’s still October...much too early for all this. We’re expected to get frost here tonight, about 2 or 3 weeks earlier than normal. And out west in the Rockies, they just had a major snow/ice storm. Bleah!
Them there polar bears are still endangered....ask Gore.
The climate changes here from Summer to Winter every year. Sometimes colder sometimes hotter. When the weatherman can get it right two weeks away it is a rare occaision. I think Algore is insane.
I was lucky enough to sell my house and move to a smaller, much better built, and nat gas heated home.
I won’t miss paying a king’s ransom for propane.
I think it’s gonna be a cold winter here in Indiana.
Ask God.
They wouldn’t listen to science so now they are being rebuked by the weather.
“Them there polar bears are still endangered....ask Gore”
Yup, the same them there polar bears whose population is increasing.
But to dim-bulb-crats (to whom math is magic) more is less.
We had snow on the ground here in Vermont this morning. Pretty unusual for this time of year.
The Lord does indeed work in mysterious ways. ;-)
It’s all a hoax that covers the greeniew real Kool-Aid belief:
Humanity is a virus infecting the earth mother goddess Gaia.
And there are the words to that wonderful song.
This is my Father’s world.
Oh let me not forget.
That tho’ the wrong be oft so strong.
God is the ruler yet.
:)
Oh NOES! It’s cooling!
Oh NOES! It’s warming!
Oh NOES! It’s cooling!
Oh NOES! It’s warming!......
Uh, wait a minute......
