Real climate scientists know this because they have been affecting worldwide weather for centuries. If you want to read about this yourself, here is an article in Wikipedia that is interesting:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/North_Atlantic_oscillation\">North Atlantic oscillation &#8211; Wikipedia<\/a><\/p>\n<p>If want a quick lesson regarding this, consider this. London at (51\u00b030\u2032N) is <strong>NORTH<\/strong> of Calgary (51\u00b003\u2032N). So is Amsterdam, Berlin, and Dublin. Montreal is <strong>SOUTH<\/strong> of Paris. Reykjavik is over 20 degrees north of Boston (64\u00b008\u2032N vs 42\u00b021\u2032N), but the average temperature in Reykjavik in January is 31f while in Boston it is 29f.<\/p>\n<p>The reason for this is the North Atlantic Oscillation. Part of which is the GULF stream.<\/p>\n<p>One may wonder why this matters. Well, the answer is that some scientists say that the Atlantic Current may be on the verge of collapse.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.msn.com\/en-us\/weather\/topstories\/scientists-say-the-atlantic-current-appears-to-be-on-the-verge-of-collapse\/ar-BB1iexYR?ocid=msedgdhp&amp;pc=HCTS&amp;cvid=7773666d0a4744a088ed72331945c994&amp;ei=48\">Scientists Say the Atlantic Current Appears to Be on the Verge of Collapse (msn.com)<\/a><\/p>\n<p>I love the following paragraphs in this article:<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>\u201cAs it continues heading north, the salty water cools down and becomes heavier. Then it sinks, pulling in more water from the surrounding Atlantic, and travels southward, starting the cycle all over again.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><em>But global warming could dramatically disrupt that. As ice sheets and glaciers melt, the fresh water they release dilutes the density of the ocean&#8217;s salty water. The less dense the water, the less it sinks. Without sinking \u2014 which sucks water into the current \u2014 the weaker the entire conveyor belt is. At a certain point, you can say goodbye to this vital pipeline of heat to North America and Europe.\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In other words, global warming could (will) cause global cooling. Not to be alarming, but this could drop temperatures by 5 degrees Fahrenheit with places in Norway dropping by 36 degrees. So, the hotter it gets the colder it will get. This should be obvious to anyone remotely familiar with history. There was a Medieval warming period followed by the mini-ice age followed by global warming. What goes up, must come down. Duh!<\/p>\n<p>So, imagine taking drastic action to stop global warming without understanding that global warming will eventually cause global cooling. When man tries to manage nature, eventually, nature always prevails. Ultimately, we are powerless to change the inevitable. However, we are capable of really mucking things up, for a while.<\/p>\n<p>As for me, the solution is obvious. When warmer temperatures are predicted, I buy another coat. When cooler temperatures are predicted, I check on my air conditioning. When people propose stupid ideas, guaranteed to not work, to solve a problem that doesn\u2019t actually exist, I am reminded of why there will always be liberals, they will always be wrong, and the problem won\u2019t be solved until they are replaced with conservatives. What is obviously true is obviously true and understanding that is the very foundation of learning. In the meantime, be aware. It is probably going to get freezing hot.<\/p>\n<p>TDM<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The North Atlantic Oscillation is closely related to the Arctic Oscillation or the Northern Annual Mode.
