Typing comments here is like Peter (is it Peter?) tossing tablets into the sea. The answers come back from anywhere and everywhere. Although it’s cold in Ottawa today, this winter has been above average so far.
The earth’s climate has been fluctuating for billions of years, we may be helping a little but in the scheme of things, we are just a speck of dust on this planet, are we really that egocentric that we that powerful???
The weather’s certainly a bit crazy this winter. Here in central Scotland it’s 6°C (43°F) even at night, while 2,000 miles to the south southern Italy and Greece are blanketed in snow and ice. It shows what a huge difference the Gulf Stream makes, I guess – and what a disaster it would be for the British Isles if it failed.
To find out whether there’s global warming, you need data from sensors all over the world, spanning many decades, maybe 300 decades. Finally, you need to collect this without edits by an organization that hopes to get lots and lots of money if there IS global warming. Check out https://realclimatescience.com/
Here where I live, we’re having the coldest winter anyone can remember. I don’t know if it is an all time record, but it is certainly the worst winter since I moved here.

Picking an icicle out of your nostril is really painful. I always pull a bunch of nose hairs when I do that

It’s going to be -16F tonight and I’ve already shoveled the snow off the roof once this year. No polar bears in the yard, so that’s good.

I love the old “tablet across the sea” bit…it’s the best, laziest way to stretch a two-panel gag into a Sunday strip with Xeroxed, useless filler!

Charleston, SC woke to 25 degrees today. In 3 days the forecast high is 70 degrees. Go figure.

Also note that this cartoon is addressing weather, not climate.

It’s all relative!
Excuse me know while I thaw some ice to make another cup of coffee. Now where did I put those sticks I need to rub together and build a fire…
