If you can't single out an event to suggest climate change, then why is the 05 hurricane season brought up? Why can't I point out cold snaps? Hypocritical?

Global warming idiots are having a problem proving the existence of their god.

Global Warming isn't about how warm our winters are, but more about extreme weather conditions. Last year for the first time in history,there was a hurricane in the south atlantic. It's the changing weather that will be the problem. Places that always had rain,may not have any. Places that have almost no rain may begin to have too much rain. When weather patterns start to change,we have to think about where are food will come from. Floods where there has never been a flood before. Drought in places that have always produced food,insects that move in and destroy forests,fish populations that have no food,changes in ocean currents that will give winter to places that have never had it before,rain forests into deserts, grass land into swamp. The cold snaps are only one more of the extreme weather anomalies that we can expect. In short, global warming has nothing to do with "a more comfortable environment".

I bet they don't bring up that the 06 hurricane season was supposed to be the biggest in history.
It's not just even that they single out one event. They single out a very small part of history. We've only kept weather records from the last 150 years. There's nothing to say what happened before that.
And why are they so quick to dismiss global cooling? Science was up in arms about that 30 years ago.

Ironicallly while the earth warms overall on the average, that may well mean much colder northern temps--as we are seeing now --but much warmer as you get closer to the equator--and hence more violent storms as the two differing temps mix--you really should study the issue --this is serious stuff-which will not just impact future generations but us as well. And we are not just talking about putting up with tornadoes in the winter in Florida and Lousiana--and hurricanes in the summer--but drought in areas as the warmer climates sucks the water from the ground and lakes--but flooding alng the coasts with major ice melt from the poles Time is showing who the idiots are but that is little consolation as we all are in the same sinking boat--which is so needless because there are solutions--which if done intelligently would mean more jobs and would save our wonderful planet--actually save us because the planet really does not give a crap about humans .

Perhaps they get angry because when someone talks about the cold to try and refute global warming it's clear they don't have a clue what they are talking about. Global warming causes all kinds of extreme weather, not just heat. That's a basic fact about global warming. So, when someone doesn't know that simple fact and tries to use it to refute global warming, it makes THEM look rather simple. It also makes it clear they are trying to act like an expert about something they don't really know the first thing about. Could that be it? Before arguing a point, it helps to know the details of the subject you're arguing.

Global warming doesn't stop it from ever being cold, nor does it mean that some places won't have worse weather (sometimes colder, or feeling colder due to other weather factors such as windchill). Global warming doesnt equal constant summer; it causes disruption to the world's weather patterns but it doesn't negate the seasons.
By all means carry on pointing out the cold! (Hell, I'm British - we love talking about the weather!)

Global warming is a way for everyone to "Hug a Tree" they hype up something that really doesn't even have any backing other than political and get everyone who believes everything the media tells them in an uproar.
There was way stranger/worse weather in the 1910's (per my grandparents whom were there) and they didn't have any of the "pollutants" that we have now.... GO FIGURE!!!
BTW: GOD will take care of the earth before people will!

What happened to the 06 hurricane season? I have close to 15" of snow in my front yard now. Here I was hoping Illinois would become the new Florida from this global warming we are having!

Point out the '06 hurricane season

An entire panel of scientist nuts? Hmmm, not quite. If you actually go back and look we have experienced a warming trend. That does not mean that there will be no cold snaps, we have not become tropical yet, but we are well on our way to doing so; there is too much evidence to ignore at this point.

Did you conveniently forgot that we have VERY HOT summers the past few years? Acutally in the past we had more colder snaps in a given winter year than now.
It's amazing how people forget the past.
