Global warming is not proven in my opinion, could be just your typical non-predictable weather. Look at the animals, they are acting the same, if there was some kind of problem I would expect some kind of mass migrations.

Who knows. We've had weather like this before. The reason then was that the weather went round in seven year cycles or it was the fault of El Ninja (or whatever it was called).
If it turns out to be global warming then don't get too paranoia we won't be around when it becomes a problem for us.
The Indians and Chinese wont be bothered so why the hell should we.

I personally don't think the weather is down to global warming. I think weather comes in patterns and this spate of bad weather is just a weather pattern, albeit a bad one.

If the world doesn't change the fuel type of Aeroplanes and Cars without loosing interest in travellers and motorists then there will be serious trouble in 70 years time, guaranteed.
I would say definitely, it's obvious from the extremes of temperatures and storms that Britain and other parts of the world have started to get since last year.
So yes, and it is also because we get bad weather at this time anyway.

Not just in Britain, in Ireland also and it is definitely down to the global warming I think. It is really strange weather.
When I was younger, the winters were cold and had ok summers but not like this.
I hope it didn't do any or too much damage for any reader.
The storms seems to be coming more frequently than normal..

Yesterday, on the ITV news, they reported from an island in the Pacific.
The islanders became the first refugees of climate change and the rising waters. 2000 people left in boats because their island was and is disappearing.
It was projected that within 30 years, Florida, Southern India and a chunk of GB would go. Other parts of the world were mentioned, but I don't want to bore you. Makes you think though, doesn't it?

LOL - sure that's what all of us submit to in suggestions. it truly is because of the fact we forget the countless days caught interior bored rigid because of rain. No, it incredibly is all to do with an air cutting-edge it truly is often in the North Atlantic and brings us the warmth climate being (for some reason) in the South Atlantic this 3 hundred and sixty 5 days and bringing us stormy climate as a result.

The planet has weather patterns and shifts its nature,don't forget that we in the UK were once part of Europe and had dense rainforest's,No English Channel,Fossils are proof of this also at times in the past massive ice ages,take a look at geological history its all happened before and will again.

Well yes, I mean it's not often the blossom is coming out on the trees in January (in the UK!) and this wind is really freaky I mean you expect it in October or March but not January. And it's not just here apparently Moscow is really warm too! (relatively speaking that is!)

Me...I think it's down to global warming; but as I live in Cumbria - I say bring it on!
We're usually frozen solid at this time of year!
