"The UN says it's colder now than it was 10 years ago. And the next year will be even colder."

And you think that's all you need to know to show there is no global warming???? You are more qualified to discuss the Theory of Relativity than Global Warming.

Our last 3 winters have been the warmest ever recorded here. And just anecdotally, 35 years ago when I moved to this place, we had 7 ski slopes in the immediate vicinity (within 15 miles)....there is only one now. A kiddie slope.

" Global temperatures 'to decrease'

By Roger Harrabin
BBC News environment analyst

Global temperatures for 2008 will be slightly cooler than last year as a result of the cold La Nina current in the Pacific, UN meteorologists have said.

The World Meteorological Organization's secretary-general, Michel Jarraud, told the BBC it was likely that La Nina would continue into the summer.

But this year's temperatures would still be way above the average - and we would soon exceed the record year of 1998 because of global warming induced by greenhouse gases.

The WMO points out that the decade from 1998 to 2007 was the warmest on record. Since the beginning of the 20th Century, the global average surface temperature has risen by 0.74C.

While Nasa, the US space agency, cites 2005 as the warmest year, the UK's Hadley Centre lists it as second to 1998.

Researchers say the uncertainty in the observed value for any particular year is larger than these small temperature differences. What matters, they say, is the long-term upward trend."

Now you were saying??
