Dream on About a White Christmas

authordefault
By James Hoggan
on

Okay, so I live in Vancouver and it hardly ever snows here at Christmas, anyway.ย And the nature of climate change โ€“ which increases the likelihood ofย unusual weather events โ€“ย means a whiteย Christmas may beย moreย probablyย now than in the past. But we have a trend and the skiers aren’t going to likeย it.

Check this article from theย Independentย Online, which quotes Dr. Michael Coughlan, head of the National Climate Centre at the Australian Bureau of Meteorology, asย saying:

โ€œOne probably has to go back into prehistoric times – and way back in them – to be seeing these sorts ofย temperatures.โ€

Just to add to the record, NASA also announced that 2005 was the hottest year onย record.
