    That's about as rigorous as sticking your head out at night and saying "the sun doesn't exist".

    I love how people think cold winters somehow disproves global warming.

    They believe that the scientists have claimed that their winters will go from -20 to plus 15, when back in reality, the claim has been -18 instead of -20...

    And then there's the problem of understanding what difficult words like "local" vs "global" means....

    GO IGNORANCE!!

    We are all aware that the senses can be deceived, the eyes fooled. But how can we be sure our senses are not being deceived at any particular time, or even all the time? Might I just be a brain in a tank somewhere, tricked all my life into believing in the events of this world by some insane computer? And does my life gain or lose meaning based on my reaction to such solipsism?

    Nobody cares anymore. Global warming has lost the ear of the world. It is too technical, too polarised. The sceptics have managed to kill it.

    Go Québec! The country that has most to gain from Global Warming is also the one with the highest increase in temperature!

    An area half the size of Western Europe, soon to have the climate of Ohio, and francophone. Together, we shall rule the universe.

    God is a Catholic and he speaks French.

    According to your map, France is heading for Canadian temperatures though. I guess God decided France wasn't all that it's cracked up to be, and relocated to Québec then?

    Also: terribly outdated.

    if sceptics have 'killed' C(co2)AGW* then a large part of the blame must be put on the evangelical 'pro' camp, for they are the people that pushed public policy in advance of the science by; campaigning on conclusions that ALWAYS verged on the extreme end of what science postulated, and did so by placing a greater certainty on the science than was justified at the time.

    when these extreme conclusions became unjustifiable the public became amenable to the sceptic message.

    the science will advance to the point were the margin for interpretation becomes reasonable, but if climate scientists and policy wonks will have an uphill struggle in future it is because of the disaster-fetishists, not because of big-oil indoctrinating the 'dumb' public.
