I'm not sure whether I believe in global warming or not,  and I'm in the middle of a long debate with myself ;) about it, but I think it might be going on in some places, but not others... I'm not sure, though.

But isn't the point of "global warming" that it's... um... global? As in everywhere? Otherwise it'd just be individual climate patterns fluctuating, yes?

Yeah, where is this global warming they keep promising us?!

Really though, global temperatures have been /declining/ since 1998 (if memory serves). The real issue is pollution; global warming/climate change issues are still running rampant because scientists are still making money studying the theory.

Mmmyep.

Eww...  Normally, I'm the first to talk about snow.  Well, not normally, because the CB has only been open a year, and last year we had Alaskans who talked about it first. :) Anyway, that's kinda sad.  Poor you. :(

We'll probably be having snow soon. Infact, on Friday I was at the grocery store with my mom, and this guy was talking on the phone behind us and said "I'm predicting we'll have snow before Halloween..." It was kind of weird, but I bet he's right. I think we're going to have a really cold winter ahead, too. :)

 

I'm waiting for Indian summer! Someone told me that the Farmer's Almanac predicts a warmer than usual October!

Yeah, we haven't had an Indian summer yet this year,

either. :) At this point I'm not sure if we're going to have

one, at least where I live. But if we do, it probably won't

last long... :\
