1.The Winter in Copenhagen is a bit cold.
It was all forecastable. Owing to each parties different interests and priorities, the Copenhagen Climate Change Conference (4C) was never going to result in a legally binding agreement.
The 4C was called, “The last chance to save humanity”. If humanity did not limit Carbon Dioxide emissions, “the planet is only 6 degrees away from catastrophe” etc. That the 4C did not reach any definitive final agreement left many disappointed and anxious, as every media outlet reported.
From newspapers, TV, and internet we often hear some frightening predictions. Along with the relentless increase in Greenhouse Gases, the unceasing warming of the entire world, large scale extinctions, melting of the Alaskan ice, Pacific islands that are on the verge of sinking in to the sea, the unceasing expansion of the Inner Mongolian desert and the shrinking of the Peruvian glaciers. ….
But there is a certain distance between reality and people’s fears. The cold winter weather at Copenhagen left a deep impression on attendees.
For the first few days of the conference, the winter wind wailed outside, and the last few days was pretty much full of big snowflakes swirling around, the snow reached a depth of 10 cm. As the 4C was in session, large parts of Germany were suffering heavy snowfall, with temperatures hitting minus 10. A lake in Bavaria even hit minus 33, the lowest recorded in Europe. 4 Eurostar trains halted under the English Channel in the emergency channel. This was the first time in 15 years that this kind of incident had occured; the doors of some intercity trains in Germany were frozen shut.
Far away Asia was also in the grip its usual cold winter.
At the end of December 2009, a gust of wind hit China. In the space of one night, in the northern part of Xinjiang, the temperature dropped below minus 30. At the start of 2010, the temperature in Beijing hit minus 16, the lowest recorded temperature for the last 40 years.
It was as if the freezing cold winter was having a laugh at all of these “Global Warming” theories. If the world was warming at an ever quickening pace, as all of these environmentalists say, then whence from such extreme cold? Whenever there are any doubts about Global Warming, it is almost as though environmentalists turn everything around and claim that this is too, a result of Global Warming. The Greenhouse Effect has turned in to a big basket, no matter what bad thing it is, just chuck it in.
