It is a dangerous sign, time to be extremely cautious with climate change.

Well, the cold spell should have taken care of this.

There is no way you could know what the temp was 100 years ago! It’s all theory and speculation!

Where are the scientists fighting to educate Trump?

Yea! Buttheads! And the sun is in a cooling cycle which in turn cool are atmosphere so stop with your fake science about climate change and global warming! Natural earth cycles and Geo-Engineering! Start reporting facts instead of this garbage to create another tax on us!

Can we just quit importing more people to the US in the face of climate change? More people = more greenhouse gas emissions, more environmental issue

What was it a century before that ? Oh,,,,, you don't know? Come back and talk to me when you do

Looks more like the effects of all the poisons being sprayed into our atmosphere, via geoengineering, that have filtered down into the soil. Strontium, Barium, aluminum etc..

Climate change is like a carbuncle on ones own face. No mirrors in the house? - then there's no problem!

What better enemy for the world to focus on but climate ? We will be drowning in global socialism before you know it.

Lol

if Climate Change is warming the earth , why this COLD WEATHER ? LOL

And yet that’s not what the facts from the latest UN climate report says....

That looks like a wild fire went through.

Thank GAWD! I'm so sick of this cold weather!

Was it the president nearest to God POTUS who said “what’s wrong with a little global warming”(?)...realy, a man with a ‘vision’...Tina Turner sung it “Thunderdome”...

GerberKawasaki It was -5 F yesterday and today it is -2 F OMG CLIMATE CHANGE !!!

No city talks about it. Chicago itself has seen extensive encroachment of it's 'beaches'. It is a shadow itself due to the rising water that is Lake Michigan. Who knows how much longer before the lake reaches Lake Shore Drive? chicago lakemichigan

Forget wether climate change is real manmade or not, real choice is should we move as quickly as possible to clean energy or should we poison our air water and soil and continue our extinction of other species. Simple choice as I see it

Yes,it's true.There is another change coming in temperature .

Yeah. They were keeping such accurate and comprehensive climate data 100 years ago. People that read this newspaper are morons.

Make the light bright thank you.!.. MASA this is the reason we have Free Press .!.. 'Making America Stupid Again'

Have we banned private air travel? Threatened war with China & India unless they decrease to our levels? Are the rich selling beach front property? Shove your hoax.

Sudden Fahrenheit Syndrome: when it just doesn't sound dramatic enough in Celsius.

Yes yes and 400 years ago the death of 55 million natives of the americas created a mini ice age. Please tell all your readers what happens when a climate moves out of an mini ice age. Let's see......could it be that it becomes warmer alex? Ding Ding just won final jeopardy.

Face the facts we will not be saved by the smartest amongst us. We are doomed at the hands of the least educated. In the end our fate will be determined by our unwillingness to fund education.

Oh dears! 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♀️

Show me in this 2018 NOAA plot, since alarmists said 2018 was one of the 2 worst years. 😀😄😁😆😅

1. 100 years ago temperature measurements were much more sparse than today and there were fewer urban 'heat islands', therefore a direct comparison is misleading. 2. Beetle infestation happen periodically.

Talk about great timing for a discussion of coastal impacts in the southeast from climate change UALawSchool from SeaGrant

Yeah but Chicago is freezing and you can make a snowball outside so the science isn't settled yet.

January was the hottest month ever recorded in Australia 46-8degC 114F +

Oh, so is that why all the left wing millionaires have mansions around the East and West Coasts?

Climate change didn't cause the fire. Humans did.

You will a dictionary for the president to understand the word Fahrenheit. Maybe someone could show him what his Florida home will look when the rising water overwhelmed his property!!

Does this fear mongering from the 1970’s sound like the fear mongering of today? You be the judge:

Vostok ice cores. Follow up with that.

In some areas it’s not good, in other areas it’s really good. Overall climate change is seen as a net positive for this next century according to the IPCC.

Nature was always a buffer, and we have now exceeded its ability to buffer. When you exceed a buffer, you get small increases initially, and then exponential increases as the buffer is overwhlemed. So sad too many too stupid to understand basics.

9 inches higher so we’ll really have to start worrying about it in oh 548 years from now when it’s going up 3 feet

This is so sad. Hopefully we can reverse this damange

When it all goes pear shaped, conservative and evangelicals will just throw their hands up and say “Gods will, ya know!”

Lie, lie and lie. There, I fixed it for you.

And you have a toddler at the helm who just crapped his pants, throws a daily tantrum if he doesn’t his chocolate pudding... god bless your nation, you need it

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha

slices of roast beef with rosemary..?😮

It's cold we are getting closer to an ICE AGE you one the thing that happens every some often like every millions of years yeah that thing🙄

dontworrybehappy

Montana's forests once helped blunt climate change. Now they contribute to it.

This is so dishonest. Even if what you are saying is true, the severity of the California wildfires was 100% preventable.

Sorry, I can't read this now. My eyeballs are frozen.

A century? You could go back further and it would be higher. You could even further and it would be lower. The climate changes all the time.

What was the climate 175 years ago?

NYC.

it does not feel it!

AP FACT CHECK: Global warming hasn't gone away despite coldWASHINGTON (AP) — In the midst of a Midwest cold spell, President Donald Trump is pleading for global warming to come back, but it never went away. Just like the Arctic air invading parts of the U.S. because of wandering pieces of the polar vortex, Earth's warmth appears a bit temporarily displaced. But scientific reports issued by the Trump administration and outside climate scientists contradict Trump's suggestion that global warming can't exist if it's cold outside. A look at his Monday night tweet: Please explain the bloody obvious some more in case some biased fuckwit doesn't understand. I’m pretty sure our president was trolling your global warming theory.
