Sweden goes to war

Don Surber

Global warming is piling up around the world this winter.

How bad are things?

<<< “The Swedish Rail Administration will for the first time receive help from the military,” Infrastructure Minister Åsa Torstensson told the TT news agency. “There is an extreme amount of work left to be done.” >>>

It really has to be snowing for the Swedes to call out the army like this.

Temperatures are dropping as low as 40 degrees below zero (Celsius, Fahrenheit — it does not matter at that temperature).

<<< “We need extra resources. The huge amounts of snow have made it very difficult for us to keep the rails cleared,” Clas Lundstedt, a spokesman for the administration, told AFP. >>>

If carbon dioxide warms the world, everyone had better start exhaling. A lot.
