This is why it's silly paying any attention to climate change hysterics.

From the Daily Caller -

"As the northeastern U.S. gets pummeled by Winter Storm Stella, it’s worth remembering The New York Times published an op-ed predicting the “end of snow” more than three years ago.

Peter Fox, the editor of Powder magazine, suggested “The End Of Snow?” in a February 2014 op-ed. Fox lamented the cancelation of two events at the winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia that year, and noted predictions that some cities would be too warm to even hold the winter games.

“[W]ith a rise in the average global temperature of more than 7 degrees Fahrenheit possible by 2100, there might not be that many snowy regions left in which to hold the Games,” Fox wrote for The NYT."

Do you know what "Op Ed" means?

Do you know what an "Editorial" is?

Why do conservatives keep making themselves look foolish by posting links to articles they haven't even read?

Newsflash, conservatives - the headline is not the entire article. 3 or 4 seconds to read the headline is not enough. You have to take at least 30 seconds to read the whole article, and hey- if you still don't understand what it says, ask a liberal to help you. If we're too busy, we'll send our pre-schooler over to explain it to you.

I see. The smart thing to do is to read the headline of an internet news article about an opinion piece and draw a conclusion about a scientific topic without bothering to look at what any actual scientists say. (And, just for kicks, elect a president who makes his decisions in essentially the same way.)

Indeed. The Mexican owned blog that calls itself the New York Times shills for this sort of thing and they are proved wrong time after time.

Hey, on that one they didn't use an "unnamed source" referencing a "secret report". Just an idiot.

It's amazing, isn't it. Careful though, the climate hysterics will demand to know if you actually read the article.

They are still hurting from the fact that MSNBC has revealed that Trump pays a 25% tax rate, while the climate change socialist Bernie Sanders only pays 13%.

They're also talking about a hypothetical scenario for the year 2100 - which, according to my calculator, is something like 83 years from now.

What part of that sailed over your head?

Jesus christ. Do you people even know how to read, or is it just that you think it is an unimportant detail?
