    Actually the Arctic isn't melting, it's gaining ice, a LOT of ice! It's a lie, but I don't suppose I'll be able to post a link to that either, as it's obviously being censored. The earth is heading into an ice age now due to lack of sunspot activity, a cooling period, not warming. You can google this yourself and see.

    The weather is also being messed about with intentionally, which should never be allowed! If you go to Google and type in the search bar: cloud-seeding-nds-weather-modification-program-draws-publics-ire-during-town-hall

    You should be able to read that article.

          Well, according to Mr Trump there's no such thing as Climate Change so he's been opening up Coal mines in large numbers to feed the Coal powered Power Stations as he has the World's interest at heart:dunno:........Yeah, right!!:doh:

          Well, Sally's partially right, The Sun is in a quiet period but not in the way Sally is interpreting it as. The quiet period refers to the Sun not having much electro magnetic activity i.e: Solar flares and corona emissions have slowed down. It does not refer to the Sun's being any less hot and cooling down the Earth's climate, the Sun is as hot now as it was thousands of years ago. But in about 6 Billion years it will have burnt all it's Hydrogen fuel and will become a Red Giant....and then Sally can worry as it will engulf the Earth.

          Well, in this age of rampant information technology, conspiracy theories of all colours, mis-information [deliberate or otherwise], the alarming willingness of people to believe the World is
          coming to an end [well, it will, but not just yet:dunno:.........maybe in 6 Billion years time, etc, just shows us that fear,suspiciion, lack of trust is easily fed and always has a willing audience.
          I think real hard science and the real hard facts are being blurred by the fears, the extreme suspicions people have of Business, Politicians etc. But if I wanted to find out the truth, the last place I would give any credence to is Google.:doh::wallbanging::heehee: Anyone who actually wants to find "proof" of their theories, beliefs, of whatever aspect can be reassured they will find it on the Web. But regarding whether or not the Artic Ice Cap is melting perhaps reading the scientific papers of those Scientists who are based in research camps there might reveal the real truth. There are so many Scientists there now that any attempt at "censoring" would be laughed at, but those Scientist have to fight to convince people who don't want to, or want to be convinced, that what they're hearing is the truth. If people don't want to hear the truth that's fine, but my advice is to ask the Polar Bears if the Artic is losing ice or not.:heehee:

            They said on the weather forecast tonight that in Lapland it was 34C today.
            Normal average for this time of year is 18C.

            Apparently the average temp for the last couple of months,in the UK, is only slightly below the 1976 average.
            Now how many years have we been waiting to break the 1976 record, and I'm guessing 1976 was probably not a record as such.
            While we have been getting hot weather I gather some parts further East have been getting our usually lousy weather, so its not really a change globally, more a redirection of weather.

            Nature does that kind of thing, occasionally, but there will always be a budding scientist out there trying to find the cause, and adding 2 and 2 and coming up with 5 and then publishing his findings.:biggrin::biggrin::biggrin:

            31.2C today on the sensor.
            Might get a thunder storm tomorrow apparently.;)

                      Of course there's such thing as climate change, the climate has always changed and always will, there's just no such thing as anthropogenic global warming and Trump knows that. Also coal power is good for keeping people out of poverty. So yes, Trump does actually have the world's interests at heart, more than you realise actually! Anyway, have a read of this.....

                      As for the sun, I'm by no means an expert! :noidea:....But this is what I have heard and read:

                      'During the 20th and early 21st centuries, Earth’s inhabitants have enjoyed an epoch of very high solar activity that is rare or unique in the context of the last several thousand years. The higher solar activity and warmer temperatures have allowed the planet to briefly emerge from the depths of the successive solar minima periods and “Little Ice Age” cooling that lasted from the 1300s to the early 1900s. Unfortunately, solar scientists have increasingly been forecasting a return to a solar minimum period in the coming decades, as well as the concomitant cooler temperatures.'

                      Solar Minimum is Coming | Science Mission Directorate
                      Sunspots and Global Cooling

                      And this is from The Express recently (Yes I know they're a bit sensationalist at times, but they aren't actually exaggerating here!)
                      ICE AGE WARNING: Sunspots begin to disappear from Sun as Earth braces for cold snap

                      I think it's best to keep an open mind anyway and maybe do a bit of research into this, because really we need to be prepared for more winters like the one we just have just had, if the earth is cooling."snow dig"
