Oh fck. Not good at all.

I fear the day something like this will happen here... trees burgeoning in february then freezing back two weeks later for a month... that would be disastrous. Ouch... the mental picture hurts.

I guess your "in land" climate is more stabil and normaly have much bigger differences in temperature, so you dont notice it that much as we do here in Scandinavia for example.

i agree, we do need to stop being so wasteful, and yes we almost certainly have contributed to speeding up this natural cycle, but i dont believe we have caused it entirely. it is possible to detect 'abnormalities' in weather and climate and its easy to attribute this to global warming, even if they might be completely unrelated, but its easy to find evidence of anything if you want to. im not saying the climate is not changing, as it surely is, and im not saying we shouldnt act at all, as we certainly should, even just for want of cleaner air, and preservation of fuel, but i think people are over-reacting slightly. i think global warming is a brilliant political instrument, political parties can play it up, create histeria, and then use it to gain votes and support by offering the best preventative measures etc. dont not act at all, but at the same time dont get suckered in by all the hype around global warming, which should, in my opinion, be taken with a pinch of salt.
