    Global Warming - Information Request

    Central London, this morning and it's snowing! Can the GW Experts explain this one please. Or is it because of plastic bags.

    It's not unusual to snow in April.

    One of the permies at work was arguing the other day that global warming is 2% man made and the rest is down to cows and volcanos.

    He is a Porsche driver though so I suppose it's convenient for him to think that

      It shows that the huge taxes on 4x4's in Chelsea are working!

      If we wasn't for this tax take, it would have been 27 deg c today.

          I remember hearing about some escalator in the Atlantic ocean that carries the hot water from Mexico to Europe. They said that if this breaks down we could have snow for months on end.

          Maybe that's down for maintanence today?

            Is it controlled by the same software as the bagage system at Terminal 5?
            How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.

              UK has got abnormally mild climate - if Golfstream shuts down then winters will be very very cold, I reckon -25C will be average, but it will feel colder because of moisture.

                    It's been snowing on and off since last night here (S Wales). Hasn't settled though.
