Snowfalls Are Now Just a Thing of the Past

“The Brits Tune Out The Greens,” Walter Russell Mead writes:

The long retreat of the global green movement continues, with new news about the collapse in public concern about climate in Britain.

In 2007 19 percent of those asked told British pollsters that climate change was one of the most important problems in the world.  These days, despite unremitting green efforts to publicize the view that global warming is driving the world to catastrophe, the Economist informs us that just 4 percent of Brits polled still put it high on the list.

    I love that article.

    I don’t know how many times I’ve been arguing with someone regarding Global War… er Climate Change and mentioned the prediction and hear, “No one ever said that!”

    Then I provide them the URL
    ( http://www.independent.co.uk/environment/snowfalls-are-now-just-a-thing-of-the-past-724017.html ) mentioning that they pay close attention to the Mar 20 2000 publication date, and they suddenly have a new subject why I’m wrong.

    Mind you they never admit error over saying that ‘No One Ever Said That,’ nope, they just change the subject.
