在冰雪之下的哥本哈根与全球变暖作战?
上帝很有幽默感,上次在美国国会要在华盛顿召开全球变暖的听证会,结果是冰天雪地,听证会不得不推迟,本次在哥本哈根召开与全球变暖作战会议之际,哥本哈根迎来了罕见的大雪,有可能今年的圣诞节将是一个白色的圣诞节。按定义,白色圣诞节是国家90%有雪盖住,至少有两厘米的雪厚。
我敢说,如何不在哥本哈根开这个会,哥本哈根就不会有这样的大雪。
今年,美国多出创最早下雪的记录,相信人总丢全球变暖不是脑子有问题,就是受了欺骗。那些高喊在哥本哈根开会的人都不相信,否则就不去多排那么多气了。
Blizzard Dumps Snow on Copenhagen as Leaders Battle Warming...
By Christian Wienberg
Dec. 17 (Bloomberg) -- World leaders flying into Copenhagen today to discuss a solution to global warming will first face freezing weather as a blizzard dumped 10 centimeters (4 inches) of snow on the Danish capital overnight.
“Temperatures will stay low at least the next three days,” Henning Gisseloe, an official at Denmark’s Meteorological Institute, said today by telephone, forecasting more snow in coming days. “There’s a good chance of a white Christmas.”
Delegates from 193 countries have been in Copenhagen since Dec. 7 to discuss how to fund global greenhouse gas emission cuts. U.S. President Barack Obama will arrive before the summit is scheduled to end tomorrow.
Denmark has a maritime climate and milder winters than its Scandinavian neighbors. It hasn’t had a white Christmas for 14 years, under the DMI’s definition, and only had seven last century. Temperatures today fell as low as minus 4 Celsius (25 Fahrenheit).
DMI defines a white Christmas as 90 percent of the country being covered by at least 2 centimeters of snow on the afternoon of Dec. 24.
