Re: Global Warming (was New Medit List Members?


I'm involved in another online forum and everyone
there is denying global warming, citing recent
examples of colder than usual winters. WHat they
forget is that global warming simply means warmer
global AVERAGE temperatures. The effects of weather
vary when you get down to microclimates, so i dont see
how it discounts Global warming. What is evident is
earlier spring thaws, as the thaws that are causing
problems for Polar bears. 

I've read that what Global warming will do for the
northern hemisphere is essentially move climate bands
northward. So Canada will have a climate more like the
great plains. I assume Coastal California will assume
a more Southern California like climate possibly as
far north as San Francisco, and Southern California
will become more arid. 

Simply my conjecture. :).
