Who remembers snow and ice on the ground for weeks ?Burst pipes and icicles on the windows , frozen toes in welly boots? . Maybe the atmosphere is full of acids that melt the frozen rain, creating more water , evaporated into rain clouds and then floods.
Or maybe the tsunami that caused the earth to move on it's axis.
I haven't got a clue, and probably talking tosh, but something is telling us that toboggans are a waste of money these days.

Re: Climate Change
I find it hard to base an opinion on scientific findings because there is much conflicting information. I therefore base it on a feeling. This being that so much rubbish and pollution is being dished out into the atmosphere on a global scale that it most likely will be making a difference.In the end, it maybe comes down to how an opinion was formed in the first place. If a person likes big or multiple cars, burns logs fires and isn't careful about energy usage in general, they mostly won't agree that humans are doing anything to the planet that is causing global warming. On the other hand, those who try not to do all that will often say those activities do contribute to it. Such is life.
I expect we'll manage to live our lives the way we want. Not so sure about future generations though ..whatever the reason.

Re: Climate Change
The thing that annoys me is that we are being told not to do this and not to do that whist other countries, notably China, belch out all sorts of things that makes ours look like peanuts.What we are being made to do will not make a ha'pnworth of difference compared to them.
