Climate change.

Coldest since 1938, it says. And year before last, the Great Plains had the hottest summer since 1936. Which tells me that extreme cold and extreme heat go together (a phenomenon I've seen several times, the winter of '79-'80 followed by the summer of '80 being the one that sticks in my own memory), and that this is all cyclical.

I'm not saying that our actions could have no effect. I'm just looking at all the factors I can find.

I agree
