Eh.
If you look closely enough for something it will appear.
Not denying the issue of global warming, but the "green house effect" is a hotly debated point. I remember a lecture an enviromental scientist gave; while fielding a question from a student he off handedly mentioned how ludicrous he thinks the green house effect is, before returning to the question.
I remember winters with loads of snow as a kid. I remember a large period of 'little snow' winters during the 90's in New England. But everytime people started murmuring about global warming, we were always nailed with a heavy snowing winter.
The weather and climate of areas naturally change over time. Its entirely possible that the world is getting warmer, but human kind's direct effect on this is questionable.
There are paintings by Dutch and Netherlander artists during the 1600's that show rivers being ice skated on in the winter. Some of these same rivers haven't frozen over in the last 200 years.
Eh, its possible, but I'm not about to draw conclusions about the enigimatic nature of climate change from my measely 20 years of insight.
Cheers,
Munk
