So more flights go in one direction (against the wind)?

They have a headwind in both directions. Like my parents walking to school uphill in both directions.

If jet streams are increasing flight time in one direction, don’t they equally decrease on the return leg?

The ‘Say anything global warming retards’ strike yet again! Their dreck’s getting older by the day—every day new words, but still the same old crap!

Not if the wind is blowing the right direction.

So wouldn’t the flights be faster in the other direction? Hmm.

Horseshit.
Stronger winds mean longer flight times one direction but shorter flights the opposite.

It’s when he takes the cork out that the winds really blow.

We’re doomed.
This is so stupid. Someone’s headwind is someone else’s tailwind. They should cancel each other out.

Kris Korkinass, associate scientist at Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, said:No. Come on.
This has got to be satire.
NO WAY.

From the article:
1. We already know that as you add CO2 to the atmosphere and
2. the global mean temperature rises,
3. the wind circulation changes as well - and in less obvious ways.
Have any of these actually been observed?
