Why is good weather not blamed on Global Warming?

It has been Beautiful in the desert southwest lately.

It seems that only bad weather events are blamed on global warming. But what about good weather?

How can GW only be responsible for the weather that we don't like?

120 Years Of Climate Doom: The 1970s Ice age Scare.

radio times ice age 1974
If you thought the Northwest Passage has never been ice-free, think again. During the warming period in the early 20th century, the NW passage was open during the summer, much like it is today.

The difference: today you have a trillion-dollar cottage industry based on climate warming scares. From Australian Climate Sceptic:

1845 – The whole of Sir John Franklin’s expedition to find the NW Passage died and their ships were crushed by the ice near Baffin Island

1909-1910 – Amundsen sailed an ice-free NW Passage

1922 – The Arctic is warming and fishermen are catching species that have never been seen there before.

1970 – Kenneth Field “The world is cooling and global temperatures could drop by up to 11ºC that would freeze the North Atlantic for 4- months of the year within 20 years.

@DogMan “The 1970’s Ice Age Scare” that you guys love to talk about refers to a couple of articles of idle speculation by journalists. Climate scientists never suggested that any ice age was on the horizon.

@Theyitis Lol, a COUPLE articles???? OK, whatever you say. 🙄 Whatever fits your narrative.

@Theyitis So what do you say about the warming phase over 100 years ago? How did that happen?

And how did it then start cooling again to close the northwest passage? It sounds to me like the climate
changes continuously. That is a proven fact. It will start cooling again, no matter what we do.

Will you then give credit to Elon for starting the EV craze?

@DogMan The Amundsen expedition took 3 years because the ships were repeatedly iced in. Historically the Northwest passage was a myth and no expedition ever made it through other than by going overland at great cost.
