not paradoxical if you think how a thick layer of snow can also act as an insulation between ground and air.

Makes sense. Snow works as insulation.

What a bunch of crap.

I think low carb diets are the more prescient threat.

It's far too late. The monstrous scam that is human caused climate change has been exposed. Keep up the fine work, decent people of France.

Stop the BS! You’re scaring snowflakes.

For those of you who aren't going to read the article, snow acts like a thermal insulator against the cold air. It prevents the ground from freezing, protecting the root system of trees.

Oh no, not the syrup, ClimateChange!

Eh 🇨🇦

😰😭😭

Um, anyone who has maple trees and prays for snow. Snow protects the roots. Read the article, it's really interesting, regardless of whether you like maple syrup or not.

(of course sure).

Wow. Who knew?
