    No no no, the best thing about the cold is I can stick a six pack of room temp beer outside for 10 mins and it's good enough to be in a coors light commercial!

    In northern MN "winters"/cold weather sometimes lasts 7-8 months.

    My understanding is that the earth is still technically considered to be in an ice age and apparently we've been nearing the end of that ice age long before the industrial revolution; therefore I do believe the earth is warming. Apparently surface temp on other planets in our solar system has been on the rise as well where our "carbon emissions" have no impact...

    If we are in fact exiting an ice age and therefore experiencing warming of our planet as such, the question, if at all, would be whether human carbon emissions could be hastening the inevitable; rather than a myopic (IMO) opinion that human carbon emissions are THE cause of warming and conversely, then lack of human carbon emissions could somehow reverse global warming. I do not believe that changing the level of human based carbon emissions could reverse global warming. It seems to me our star exerts far too much control.

    reminds me of trout fishing in the spring and tying a small burlap sack around my wader belt and filling it with beer to be chilled by the stream water ..lol

    That's what I'm talking about! Stories of trout, catfish, muskie, and pike are on the horizon. A little sooner for some of us... (and beer ofcourse)

    Global warming is real,but it is also a normal cyclical phenom,in 200 yrs polar bears and other arctic creatures will become extinct.
    In 500 yrs we will have another ice age,scientists will clone the arctic animals and restock the wilds,no worreys
