They tried to use the same bull in the 1970s, saying that in 50 years the earth would be so polluted that crops would fail and everyone would starve.

Or claims that it's "settled science".
Even laws of science aren't as settled as we thought they were.

Refraining from name-calling is not a free pass. Communism scaled up to national level size is heinous, which is why the ideas need to be criticized in more detail. Commie Pig convinces nobody.

Think in terms of casting aspersions. Generally doesn't elevate the discourse.

That's different than 'getting a free pass' on some rando's opinion.

HAARP's a joke!

Turns out when they spent all that money and it didn't work, they just re-deployed it to scare gullible people.

Also, a nice picture of NGC 2008.

If your link means we should be worrying about the planet warming.

Then my link means we should be worrying about the planet cooling...

Time will tell...

These cold snaps are part of the overall warming of the planet - the melting Arctic ice is leading to a weakened jet stream, and this in turn is why we are seeing cold temps in some areas - cold Arctic air is "escaping" from the Arctic. And the Arctic ice continues to diminish more and more quickly.

Your data point doesn't challenge what we know about the climate.

I is unusually warm up here, has been for some time too. Up to 17 degrees Celsius.
I guess Saudi Arabia got a polar vortex and we got their wind.
