NorthJersey.com: Residents discuss global warming
Some people expressed their displeasure with the recent frigid temperatures, something Mary Salpukas, who led the session, pointed out is linked to global warming — as the temperatures rise, the major leaps between temperatures are becoming more commonplace.Roger Pielke Jr.'s Blog: 2.5 Wind Turbines per Day
"We will get more extremes of weather," Salpukas said.
The average rate of offshore installation up to now has been one turbine every 11 days. To hit the government’s target that Britain should source 15 per cent of its energy from renewable sources by 2020, that figure will have to rise to more than two a day by the end of the decade.Warning Signs: Not by Fire but by Ice
Offshore wind is one of the most expensive forms of electricity available.
“Earth’s north magnetic pole is racing toward Russia at almost 40 miles a year due to magnetic changes in the planet’s core, new research says.” The article by Richard A. Lovett, noted that “The core is too deep for scientists to directly detect its magnetic field, but researchers can infer the field’s movements by tracking how Earth’s magnetic field has been changing at the surface and in space.”EU Referendum: Looks like climate from here

Since ice ages and magnetic reversals appear to occur together, it is entirely likely that what we’re really looking at is the next ice age and, to make matters much worse, a potential magnetic reversal.
And, for all Monbiot's prattling, this is not "freak" weather – it is part of a pattern that has been with us for three years, the inevitable result of an established cooling cycle, where we have seen each of the last three winters more severe than the rest.Climate Models Irreducibly Imprecise | The Resilient Earth
Scientists are currently arguing about temperature changes of tenths of degrees per decade or even per century. Given the state of GCM and available computer resources, valid predictions of climate changes of these magnitudes simply cannot be accurately calculated. This is not a mater of opinion, it is a statement of fact based in mathematical analysis of climate models by multiple scholars. To base the future of the world's economy and possibly the course of human civilization on climate model predictions is insanity.Livestock being frozen to death in their thousands - The Scotsman

“Addressing climate change is not just an environmental issue, it’s about creating green jobs,” Doyle said in a statement about the bill, named the Clean Energy Jobs Act.Cold Snap Lighting a Fire Under Energy Complex and Agri-Commodities
Even parts of the country that are used to subzero temperatures are likely to suffer some damage. About 500 million bushels of corn are stuck under snow in North Dakota, South Dakota, Minnesota, Nebraska and Wisconsin, according to Martell Crop Projections, Bloomberg reported.
