Global Warming

I think the good folks in New Hampshire could use a little global warming right about now.
From USA Today: N.H. snowfall now 3rd in all-time list
With the latest flakes to fall, New Hampshire’s capital, Concord, has recorded the third highest snowfall of all time. In fact, it marks the most snow the Granite State has seen since the winter of 1873-74. With just 1.6 more inches, New Hampshire will see its second snowiest winter ever. Further, 8.6 more inches of snow between now and the warmer months would mark the snowiest winter ever in New Hampshire.
Isn’t it about time we put the anthropogenic global warming claims aside, and actually do scientific studies about what causes our climate to warm and cool? Could it be that a relatively mild winter in New York, but a snowy one a few hundred miles north, could have more to do with natural shifts in the jet stream rather than some “irreparable” harm we have done supposedly increasing a gas that makes up only 0.003% of our atmosphere (carbon dioxide) and accounts for less than 10% of the so-called greenhouse effect on the planet? New Hampshire has as long a history as a state can have in the US, since 1788, but isn’t safe to assume there were greater snowfall totals 10,000 years ago when glaciers were carving up the granite mountain faces?
Just a few questions to start the dialogue.

As with Anna Karina, we prefer to remember the U.S.A as she was in the 1960s.

Western Civilization has long been obsessed with guilt for whatever happens. It doesn’t matter what the reason for the melting of the ice on Greenland or the Arctic Ocean, or Antarctica is, it is happening. We need to try and predict how it will take place. We gain nothing wondering if we caused it. Whatever has been done over the past 200 years has been done. We need to plan our future actions.
There is strong evidence that the Arctic Ocean will be a completely open body of water all Summer long in a very short time. We need to figure how to take advantage of that. There is strong evidence that the level of the seas is going to rise much sooner than 20-30 years from now. We also need to figure out how to move people from low lying regions to higher ground. There may not be Spring Bread madness in Ft. Lauderdale for much longer. We need to plan. We need new updated models of Global Warming. We don’t need to worry about what caused this, just what we are going to do about it.

Hey Eric, thanks for helping me expose the Great Global Warming Consensus for the fraud that it is.
Here is an interesting website I found recently.

Madison just passed 100″ of snow fall for this winter.
