Global Warming Media Whores Just 3 Years Ago

flashback February 2008 - WHY WINTER NO LONGER EXISTS

"Winter has gone for ever and we should officially bring spring forward instead, one of the country’s most respected gardeners said yesterday.
For climate change has wiped out the season of traditionally long, hard frosts and replaced it with brightly blossoming gardens bursting into flower months early.
The curator of Kew Gardens said that native plants which historically flower in May are already in leaf and a modern definition of the seasons was needed.
“Over the last 12 months there has been no winter,” said Dr Nigel Taylor. “Last year was extraordinary. Spring was in January, April was summer, the summer was cool, then it was warmer and sunny in autumn."
"“The climate is behaving very strangely. No one predicted winter was finished but these plants’ behaviour shows it has ended.
“There is no winter any more despite a cold snap before Christmas. It is nothing like years ago when I was younger. There is a real problem with spring because so much is flowering so early year to year. It’s hard to plan attractions as the marketing has to be planned. You do that relying on things happening at certain times.”
Dr Taylor added: “Like most scientists, I’m fairly convinced that climate change is down to man’s reckless use of fossil fuels and destruction of natural habitats."

today - Winter weather: December 'set to be coldest since 1910'

"December is on course to be the coldest since records began in 1910, the BBC weather centre has said.
Christmas Day was extremely cold in much of the UK and fresh snow fell in Aberdeen, Glasgow and Edinburgh, making it a white Christmas in those areas."
"Earlier, BBC forecaster Liam Dutton said December was likely to be the coldest for over a century, while the rest of the country will be dry and bright with patchy freezing fog.
Temperatures stayed below freezing in much of the UK following overnight temperatures which dropped to to minus 17C at Worcester and minus 18C at Altnaharra in northern Scotland."
