popularly the thought is that somehow the oceans will boil and trees will be
steaming in their own sap. ;^)
People just can't seem to get over that word "warming".

Weirdly, global warming will effect the UK by shifting the gulf stream south
causing us to have a far colder climate.

I'm not sure if you're serious (if you're not, sorry). but if you don't
understand something perhaps you should learn.
Arguing that there is no Global Warming because it's "cold outside" is
like
saying the economy must be good "because I have a job" or that cancer
can't
kill you because "my cousin lived through it".
It's a rhetorical, anecdotal response to a subtle, systemic change where
small factors play enormous roles.
I don't care where you sit on the global warming issue - but mentioning
current local temperatures as any sort of defense of- or offense against-
it
is simply ludicrous.
The biggest problem facing this country is a lack of critical thinking and
a
horrid lack of general understanding about scientific issues facing a
modern
world. In other words "education".

Last I looked, 13 degree in New York. -30 in some parts of Maine. Guess
I should leave my swimsuit at home...
