Climate sceptics are failing to understand the most basic meteorology – that weather is not the same as climate, and single events are not the same as trends<\/strong><\/p>\n

It’s as predictable a feature of the British winter as log fires and roasting chestnuts: a national outpouring of idiocy every time some snow falls.<\/p>\n

As one of the worst winters in 100 years grips the country, climate experts are still trying to claim the world is growing warmer.<\/p>\n

There’s a clue as to where he might have gone wrong in that sentence: “country” has a slightly different meaning to “world”. Buried at the bottom of the same article is the admission that ” … other areas including Alaska, Canada and the Mediterranean were warmer than usual.” But that didn’t stop Brown from using the occasion to note that “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.”<\/em><\/span>
