The Internet is starting to heat up over the Global Warming debate as the coldest winter on record snows in travelers this holiday season.

December 19, 2010. Snow continues to wreak havoc on Christmas travelers across Europe, with cancelled flights, blocked roads, and idle railways. Pure misery due to ice and snow reported in the UK as Heathrow airport remains closed. A snow storm in Eastern Canada shut down London, Ontario and Sarnia, Ontario was declared a natural disaster area due to snow squalls. The U.S. is also feeling the chill, with a brutally cold record setting arctic blast stretching across the Eastern U.S. from Minneapolis to Miami and a Western U.S. storm system moving in with California to bear the brunt.

Ironically, all this chill during another UN climate change summit. This year the summit took place in Cancun, where the coldest temperatures in over a hundred years hailed. Last year the Copenhagen Accord seemed to endure the same fate with IPS News in Berlin reporting the coldest winter in 50 years during Copenhagen talks.
Is it not suppose to be getting warmer?

Let us not forget, back in 2000 a senior research, Dr. David Viner, from the Climatic Research Unit of the University of East Anglia told the UK Independent that snowfall will become a thing of the past.

The article states: Sledges, snowmen, snowballs and the excitement of waking to find that the stuff has settled outside are all a rapidly diminishing part of Britain's culture, as warmer winters - which scientists are attributing to global climate change - produce not only fewer white Christmases, but fewer white Januaries and Februaries.

Dr. David Viner concluded, “Children just aren't going to know what snow is."

Ten years later, a recent article in the Telegraph titled, Are we freezing because of global warming? suggested that one of the effects of global warming is colder winters.

Skeptics of global warming are flooding the internet with debates over the science of climate change and the cold weather is inspiring their fight.

Global Warming Hoax news posts an array of news articles to debunk the theory of man made global warming, and they are not the only ones to claim global warming a hoax, about 1,420,000 other web pages also concur.

Skepticism is nothing new in 2006 Senator James Inhofe, Chairman of the Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works called global warming "the greatest hoax ever perpetrated on the American people." He also put together a guide for journalist entitled A Skeptics Guide to Debunking Global Warming Alarmism, a 68 page guide of documented scientific proof in regards to the lies of global warming.

In rebuttal, the global warming advocates have come up with their own ways of disputing anti-global warming science that is echoing across the internet. How to Talk to a Skeptic guide, lists all you need to know to debunk the debunkers including; stages of denial, scientific topics, types of arguments, and levels of sophistication.

Skeptical Science has also put out a guide, The Scientific Guide to Global Warming Skeptism. The guide looks at how human activity is causing global warming and how skeptic arguments are misleading.

In conclusion, the arguments will continue over global warming, and while we argue we can all bundle up and throw another log on the fire ‘cause damn, it sure is cold out there!
