CFP: Sampling of Inconvenient Questions for Climate Fear Promoters
A list but by no means comprehensive...
Lemon juice supply goes sour
If you have tried to buy lemon juice lately, you may have noticed it can be tricky to find in stores.

That's because we're in the midst of a worldwide lemon juice concentrate shortage.
...
Your local grocery store isn't to blame for the shortage; international weather is the culprit, says Claire Smith, Sunkist's corporate communications director.

Freezing weather in California and Argentina in 2007 destroyed fruit and created shortages; drought conditions in Spain and Australia have also hurt crops.

"Basically all the folks who would be producing a lot of lemons had very short crops," she says.
Malaysia: Another global warming debate
The grand finals pitched SMK Methodist ACS, Ipoh, against Institute Perguruan Ipoh on the topic “Global warming is avoidable”. Both teams were very vocal.

Among the 300 people present was Perak State Education Department deputy director Mohd Yasin Mohamod, who gave away the prizes.

The opposing team from Institute Perguruan Ipoh — comprising Wee Vee Vien, Charlene Anak Charles Banyi, Shoba Andiappan and Nik Khairina Balqis Nik Mohd Asri — won the day and walked away with RM600 and the Dr P. Palani Velu challenge shield.
