Professor Lindzen called the followers of Global Warming a \u201cCult.\u201d This brings me to the \u201cmeat\u201d of this post, how the New York Times, one of the main propaganda organs for the Church of Global Warming, (Algore be praised), was writing as recently as a year ago That snow was a thing of the past. The Times was screaming about this last year when there was a problem with snow at the Winter Olympics in <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Sochi\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Sochi<\/a> last year. According to the New York Times:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><i>OVER the next two weeks, hundreds of millions of people will watch Americans like Ted Ligety and Mikaela Shiffrin ski for gold on the downhill alpine course. Television crews will pan across epic vistas of the rugged Caucasus Mountains, draped with brilliant white ski slopes. What viewers might not see is the 16 million cubic feet of snow that was stored under insulated blankets last year to make sure those slopes remained white, or the hundreds of snow-making guns that have been running around the clock to keep them that way. <\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I remember that. I also remember that Sochi is not located in the cooler climates of Russia, but near the Black Sea. Still, the New York Times, and the Church of Global Warming, (Algore Akbar!), and the New York Times has never been one to let a little thing like geography get in the way of \u201cThe Truth.\u201d Because it happened to be warm that year, the Moonbats in the \u201cScientific Community\u201d took flight and commenced barking.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><i>That situation <\/i><i>(The warm temperatures)<\/i><i> led the climatologist <a href=\"https:\/\/web.archive.org\/web\/20210411091130\/https:\/\/uwaterloo.ca\/geography-environmental-management\/people-profiles\/daniel-scott\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Daniel Scott<\/a>, a professor of global change and tourism at the University of Waterloo in Ontario, to analyze potential venues for future Winter Games. His thought was that with a rise in the average global temperature of more than 7 degrees Fahrenheit possible by 2100, there might not be that many snowy regions left in which to hold the Games. He concluded that of the 19 cities that have hosted the Winter Olympics, as few as 10 might be cold enough by midcentury to host them again. By 2100, that number shrinks to 6. <\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/snob_che_frame.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-16081\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/snob_che_frame-215x300.jpg?resize=215%2C300\" alt=\"snob_che_frame\" width=\"215\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/snob_che_frame.jpg?resize=215%2C300&amp;ssl=1 215w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/snob_che_frame.jpg?w=268&amp;ssl=1 268w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 215px) 100vw, 215px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I see that one of the Cardinals of the Church of Global Warming, (Algore be praised!), chipped in on the debate.

Snow melts above 32 degrees Fahrenheit. The Alps are warming two to three times faster than the worldwide average, possibly because of global circulation patterns. Since 1970, the rate of winter warming per decade in the United States has been triple the rate of the previous 75 years, with the strongest trends in the Northern regions of the country. Nine of the 10 hottest years on record have occurred since 2000, and this winter is already looking to be one of the driest on record \u2014 with California at just 12 percent of its average snowpack in January, and the Pacific Northwest at around 50 percent. <\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/dont-confuse.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-15070\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/dont-confuse-300x232.jpg?resize=300%2C232\" alt=\"don't confuse\" width=\"300\" height=\"232\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/dont-confuse.jpg?resize=300%2C232&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/dont-confuse.jpg?resize=500%2C387&amp;ssl=1 500w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/dont-confuse.jpg?w=1009&amp;ssl=1 1009w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Yeah, that myth has been pretty well debunked by actual scientists who are trained in the various fields that actually deal with the climate and weather of the Earth.
