Maybe watch better news?

Climate is not the weather.
2021 was the 6th hottest year on record, I believe they've said.

It's been plenty warm over the whole course of last year. Don't let a short memory trick you into thinking this week's weather represents larger climate patterns.
@ViciDraco I think I am a bit older than you,,in my 30 years living hear January never been this cold,,you must live in Florida,or California,but hear it colder than a well diggers ass,,
@jackrabbit10 Here in the PNW the winters have been getting progressively warmer, just as the summers have steadily been getting hotter. Climate change can't really be denied any longer. At this point the argument seems to be whether the changes are naturally occurring cycles, or the direct results of man's activity.
My own belief is that it's better to err on the side of caution since we only get one earth.

@jackrabbit10 how cold it is right now has no bearing on climate. Climate is a pattern of weather. Variations in weather happen all the time. A month of freakish cold does not mean the climate has gotten colder.

If the winters become consistently colder year over year and begin driving average seasonal temperatures for the season down, then you can talk about the climate.
