Neither. Both are bad, and both lead to cold weather. Global cooling obviously leads to cold weather. Global warming does too, surprisingly. Here's why: the ice caps melt, and since only fresh water freezes, that means the melted ice is fresh water. The ocean is not as salty, which causes the currents to shut down. The currents regulate climate, and without them, the entire earth will get colder. We will enter another ice age.
Probably true, and that stinks.
I wish we could skip all that and have Jurassic-like weather world wide.
Steamy and stinky from dinosaur turd would suit me fine, as long as it's not cold.

We have the same preferences when it comes to weather. Will you ever get to move somewhere warm?

I am somewhere warm. (for Canada)
Maybe in a few years when I get more experience I will be able to get nice, high paying international work, but with my current skills and experience I'm only in moderate demand in Canada. (and obviously lesser demand internationally)

Have you thought about America? The good thing about America is no matter where you grow up, there's a place in the country where you'll like the weather. I leave for college next year. I don't know where yet, but I applied to warm colleges.

I "WAS" American until I was three-and-a-half.
Until on morning I asked are there two languages on my box of Cheerios.
My parents said "...Yes, English and French..."
I asked why.
They said because we're in Canada.
In a moment, my mind was racing because I've never heard of a place called "Canada",
even though I already knew at least 7 other countries,
like Italy, France, China, Mexico, Spain, Egypt
I believed we were in the U.S.A., so not only was I not in the country I thought I was, but also none of the people I knew were who I thought they were either.
All we have here is different kinds of cold climates.
Some will argue that Vancouver is warm,
but sorry, no, not even 74 F in the shade is warm to me,
so they actually get more cold days than we do.
(we just get more extreme cold days)
The wages in the U.S. are lower than what I can get here,
plus we have universal (though often mediocure) health care
so nobody loses their house because of a few month hospital stay.
If I was a dual citizen,
I would have moved back to the U.S. immediately after highschool,
but there's a lot of B.S. and red tape to go through if your not already American
all to get a lower paying job in my field...
(not saying it wouldn't be worthwhile, but certainly frustrating)
Let me tell you CC, I love your posts! The Cheerio box story is too cute, not to you maybe, but to me.
My moms parents were French Canadian and immigrated to the UP in the late 1800s. My grandfather never spoke English. When you check census records, its amazing the number of Canadians that came down to Michigan. My dads parents came from Sweden so I'm a great combo, French-Canadian Swede and maybe that is why I like the cold???

It's funny, but also at times it irritates me still.
But I'm certainly glad you enjoyed it.
Dunno,
but 95% of my ancestors are from the northern parts of Europe,
but for me "too warm" does not even exist;
(while you'll often hear other members mention "too warm")
when I'm not thirsty or or dizzy, I typically do not desire even slightly cooler temperatures.
I wonder if my family history is one of being bitter about living in cold places...
