warming.

Happy New Year

Apparently if it really is a side-effect of the ice-caps melting diverting
the gulf stream away from us, it's going to do a lot more harm to the
country's climate and weather system than we're currently seeing. :-/

Another scare story put about by the warmists to get the great unwashed to believe in the religion so that they won't complain about being taxed more.

AIUI the perceived threat is that the gulf stream will just stop


That's one. Another is that the absence of sea ice in the Kara and
Barents Seas produces high-pressure systems that direct cold air over
northern Eurasia and Canada.

But last month may just be a result of weather, and nothing to do with
climate change.

Many years ago, in the days of the Light programme and the Home
Service, not to mention the Third Programme.
A comedian on Workers Playtime said that in Britain we dont have a
climate, we just have weather.
How right he was.

Don't worry a meteor is going to collide with UK long before that happens.


That would be kind of poetic, since we seem to miss out on pretty much all
the other bad stuff.

London will grind to a halt in 2012 putting on the blinking Olympics
anyway so maybe that's not far from the truth.

I gather it wasn't so much the gulf stream (sea) being diverted that
affected us last month but the Jet Stream (air) which pushed far more
arctic air further south.
