"In the beautiful Midwest, windchill temperatures are reaching minus 60 degrees, the coldest ever recorded. In coming days, expected to get even colder. People can’t last outside even for minutes. What the hell is going on with Global Waming? Please come back fast, we need you!" - Donald J. TrumpTrump and other climate change deniers, notably Senator Inhofe, seem to think that cold weather proves that the atmosphere isn't heating up. Climate scientists have made various predictions over the years, based on how much carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases are added to the atmosphere. Among those predictions, how much higher average global temperature will be, how much the polar ice sheets and glaciers will melt, how much that melting will raise sea level, how warming will intensify storms, etc. These predictions have been coming true without any acknowledgement from the scoffers.
Note that no scientist has made the following predictions:
Global warming means that it will never get very cold, ever again, anywhere on earth.
Global warming means that it will never snow again, anywhere on earth.
Global warming will put an end to winter for good.So, what does the scoffer-in-chief think he has proved here?
