The "Medieval Warm Period" was matched by a cold period over Asia, when Baghdad once got 3 feet of snowBrian Ulrichhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06986631330360998134noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10038924.post-66046092150191383872012-01-15T16:11:26.653-06:002012-01-15T16:11:26.653-06:00That may be, but I don't buy the premise of th...That may be, but I don't buy the premise of the whole "man-made-climate-change-the-earth-is-dying" cry. The climate has always changed and fluctuated throughout history. We know the climate warmed in Europe considerably during the middle ages, and that turned out to be quite beneficial. We also know that some summers are warming than others and some winters are colder than others.<br /><br />I remember growing up in Quincy that it would not be uncommon to have at least three 6-inch snowfalls each winter. At the same, most every day in August reached into the upper 90s. Neither is the case today.<br /><br />It seems to me that, for the time being, we are experiencing what might be a climate milding. Man may be contributing to it a small way, but not a terribly significant one.Rev. Daren J.

I was at a glacier in Iceland where they had markers for the extent of glaciation going back decades, and the loss of ice over the past decade was staggering in its scope compared to what went before.Brian Ulrichhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06986631330360998134noreply@blogger.com
