An interesting but very small gallery. This is surprising considering
most members live in Temperate Climates.

Over the last 15 years our climate here in Western Europe has become so
temperate that we hardly get to see any ice. Our last real snow that
lasted longer than 2 or 3 days was in 2010. But of course climate change
doesn't exist...

You know, Ralf, in the first 4 centuries when the Romans were in
Britain, Europe was very warm. The Romans were able to grow grapes as
far north as York. The human population was much smaller than today &
only coal,  peat & wood were used for energy so the human contribution
would have been very low. Much less livestock too. A Solar Cycle must
have played a part too but there are no proper records. Then in 404 came
the big freeze, The Huns were able to cross the frozen Rhine in huge
numbers which ultimately led to the collapse of the Roman Empire. The
Romans hurriedly left Britain, never to return. The masses left behind
had been well schooled in governance so a semblance of civilisation
remained. One stupid thing they did was to steal all the stones from the
Roman Roads for building purposes, leading to misery on the wet, muddy
roads for centuries.

Fast forward to the present day. The human & animal population is
massive by comparison - a big source of methane Together with Freons &
suchlike a major cause of global warming, much worse that all the CO2
which is a weak green house gas. One thing which is seldom mentioned is
the CO2 contribution from limestone during cement manufacture, I suggest
there is another warm solar cycle too. Man seems to be hell bent on self
destruction with a bunch off people only interested in profits i/c.  But
nature will sort things out. Perhaps Covid was a sort of final warning?

Without a doubt, there is Global Warning!
