I agree that one major storm is an event.I also agree that winters have been mild compared to the 50's through 70's here in Ohio.What I disagree with is the political aspect of calling it anything except the earth doing what it wants.Global warming to climate change , whatever you want to call it , is nothing but political BS .In the 70's they were saying we're going into a mini ice age.That didn't pan out so Al Gore changed it to global warming because the ice age wasn't going to happen.Funniest thing I saw was another political agenda , asking for $ 19.00 a month to save the polar bears from the ice melting and they wouldn't have homes.Yet there's more polar bears today than there were at that time.The earth is going to do as it's meant to do , weather the politicians get their easy money or not.It's changing poles a little each year if you pay attention , like it did before.At least once that they can document , the earth has changed poles once .Think about it, the earth tilts a little more each year , the weather will change , as the sun shines on a little different part of the earth each year.Warms up this part more than it used to , and the part it used to warm up , is a little cooler.So the oceans have different temperatures than before.It causes the current to change slightly each year.While ice disappears in one place , it gets thicker in another.One more thing to think about, they keep saying that the carbon dioxide is causing global warming .Think about that for awhile.Lets not forget if the oceans are going to rise, why do the politicians move to the coast or Maratha's Vineyard ?
