Up to 1 meter of snow in Happo, Japan
“Although Happo is situated in the mountains, one meter of snow before even the winter has begun, is not a thing to be very glad about,” says Argiris Diamantis.Enlightened Thinking From Al Gore | Real Science
Al Gore believes that sacrifice is needed to control the climate. The Mayans believed the same thing.A compliment from Al Gore?

That is cheering. We deniers have stopped the Warmists! Al Gore says so. Perhaps we should have a few victory celebrations.
Far more people die due to excessive cold than due to excessive warmth. Cold weather is obviously much harder on our bodies than is warm weather. That is why people retire to Florida or Arizona, and not Alaska.
History demonstrates that warming has been good, and cooling bad, for civilization. That is why geologists named past warm periods “optimums” and cold times “dark ages.”
It was during the warmest period since the end of the last ice age, a time called the Holocene Optimum between 9,000 and 5,000 years ago, that the first civilizations flourished in the Fertile Crescent of the Middle East. Other warm periods, climate optimums during Minoan, Roman, and Medieval times, and of course, the modern warm period, have all resulted in increased food productivity, lower death rates, and greater all-around prosperity.
In contrast, cold periods have been very rough on societies. The Dark Ages Cold Period between about 600 and 900 AD was a time of great retreat of agriculture and depression of human activity. There were plagues and starvation in many regions and people were forced to migrate away from farms in central Europe and Scandinavia.
The Little Ice Age (LIA) from about 1350 to 1850 was even worse; there was great misery for people around the world.
