In fact, this 2017-18 winter is breaking RECORDS
for how cold it's been!

The last year has seen over 10 and a half
thousand low temperature records broken.

Prompting many to ask, is global warming even
real?

If you're one of the many who question global
warming during the winter, you're not alone.

How can we have a warm globe and ALSO have
snow!?

The difference is… and let me speak plainly
here.

Or, put another way, weather is MOOD climate
is PERSONALITY.

You could tweet your hashtag current mood,
but that's not your overall personality,

When you think of the climate this way, it
makes a lot more sense.

MORE severe weather over years or decades?

Citing severe winter as the reason there's
no such thing as global warming is like saying:

'I'm happy today, so I don't have depression,
bi-polar disorder, anxiety, or issues with

No one can deny that fluctuation is just part
of having a personality.

In this case, the personality of Mother Earth
TODAY, is changing from how she used to be.

Now, if you're one of those who deny Mother
Earth's personality is changing, you're

There ARE scientists who aren't sure if
humans are causing this climate personality

From 1991 to 2012 there were nearly 14,000
peer-reviewed published scientific papers

24 of those dissented and didn't blame humans.

To put those numbers in perspective, that's
like saying every single person in the United

States believes humans are causing climate
change, but the population of Albuquerque

Would you believe Albuquerque, or literally
everyone else.

Plus, even if YOU are just hearing about this
today, science has centuries of research on

In 1824 a scientist named Joseph Fourier realized
the Earth's atmosphere is what traps the

sun's heat -- like the glass in a greenhouse.

Next in 1859, physicist John Tyndall put some
CO2 in a bottle and realized it trapped heat!

That was waaaay before accusations of a liberal
conspiracy hit the internet…

Then, in 1897, geologist Thomas Chamberlin
wrote that the “conditions for life” might

be subject to a delicate balance of CO2 in
the sea, earth and air!

And if we release the trapped CO2 from one
of these, we could upset that balance.

It's been over 100 years and we're forcing
Earth to change her personality -- to change

The planet's PERSONALITY is shifting, and
that's reflected in her MOOD swings.

Since the 1950s, winter storms ARE getting
worse.

The heaviest storms happen when the surface
temperature is between 32 and 28 degrees.

That's still cold, Mr Snowball in Congress,
but it used to be much colder!

This warmer air can hold more moisture which
means more snow, more rain, and less freezing.

So, even though winter exists and one part
of Earth might be cold right this second,

Record hot days are topping record cold days
three to one.

And that's because Fourier was wrong, the
atmosphere is not a sheet of glass.

It's a multilayered complex and ever-changing
system that we are still grasping an understanding

In the end, the trend of our climate will
continue, with stronger storms, wetter weather,

and eventually higher average sea levels,
less ice and who knows what else.

Objective and documented observation says
that's where this trail of moods leads.

As the personality of our climate changes,
we're going to have to live with a Mother

Earth who is quick to anger, lashes out, and
is less kind to her human passengers.

But hey, at least we can still pack snowballs
and tweet denials.
