AS one of the worst winters in 100 years grips the country, climate experts are still trying to claim the world is growing warmer.
With millions of Britons battling through snow and ice to get to work today, scientists claim that the cold conditions should not be used as evidence against man-made climate change.
Blizzards, ice and sub-zero temperatures that have gripped the UK for almost a month in a record deep freeze are not “robust” indicators of global weather patterns, they say.
Their claims come despite the fact that the rest of the northern hemisphere, from America to Europe and Asia, is suffering some of the worst winters in living memory.
Huge snowfalls are being witnessed from China and South Korea, across eastern, central and western Europe and to America where even Florida is struggling to record temperatures above freezing.
Last night critics of the global warming lobby said the public were no longer prepared to be conned into believing that man-made emissions were adding to the problem.

Among the most interesting of HP’s new offerings is the Mini 5102 (pictured), the company’s first touch-enabled netbook. You can use multi-finger gestures on the capacitive multitouch screen, which doesn’t require a lot of pressure to make something happen. You can tap or swipe to navigate through applications and menus. It has a 10.1-inch LED display with a two-megapixel webcam coupled with face-recognition software. Once it recognizes you, it will log you into the computer, and it will do the same for web sites as well.
HP is also offering two new laptops for both consumers and small businesses. The HP Mini 210 and the HP Mini 2102 weigh 2.7 pounds and are less than an inch thick. The Mini 210 (pictured) is available in black crystal, silver crystal, blue or red, while the Mini 2102 comes in black. They feature the latest Atom processors and have 10.1-inch screens that can handle high-definition video.
HP is refreshing its line of HP EliteBook notebook PCs for those who are thinking of computing in a combat zone. The HP EliteBook 8440w and 8540w mobile workstations, as well as the HP EliteBook 8440p and 8540p laptops, come with ruggedized features that meet the specifications of the military. They have durable cases, dust-proofing, metal hinges with steel pin axels and a reinforced display latch. They can tolerate heat up to 140 degrees Fahrenheit or minus 60 degrees.
HP’s entry in the small projector market is the HP Notebook Projector Companion. This small box measures three inches by four inches and weighs less than a pound. But it can project an image up to 60 inches diagonally from a distance of up to 8.5 feet. It has a light-emitting diode light source that can last 10,000 hours, and it has a brightness of 100 lumens. It’s clearly not the most powerful projector on the market, but it will do the job for most presentation purposes, and you can’t beat the size. It comes with an option for a $99 battery adapter. It is available Jan. 15 for $499.
Although the Paris Tribunal de Grande Instance ruled against the lifetime ban imposed by the International Automobile Federation (FIA) to former team manager Flavio Briatore, the legal saga between those two parties doesn’t seem to be over just yet.
