The back – to – back blizzards that hit the U.S. this past winter led some, mostly at Fox News, to again question the validity of human-made climate change. “It’s just too cold,” they said.
In a recent presentation in Australia, Michael Oppenheimer, a leading climate change scientist and co-author of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) climate change report, warned that as the planet is getting hotter cold winter snaps are expected. “Not every decade is necessarily going to be warmer than the decade before,” he explains. He adds that by 2050 the planet will be warmer but there are going to be periods when the earth temperature actually dips.
