As global warming seems to affect ski resorts would you consider
"paddleskiing" as an alternative sport for the winter?

Interesting thought although here we're burried under two feet of snow

Hmmm...perhaps without global warming, you'd be buried under four feet
of snow instead of just two? Even if two feet of snow seems plenty
to you, the effects of global warming are not necessarily noticed to
a uniform degree in all places at all times.

That said, the effects *are* noticeable worldwide...especially
worrying when considering the polar regions.

If you call it "global warming" whenever something melts, then I
suppose that would have to be true.

Some days you're the windshield,
Other days you're the bug.

HI Folks,

There's an article in the newest issue of Science, perhaps the pre-eminent
scientific journal in the world, about global warming, that talks about its
effects and establishes further evidence of human-caused climate change.

My understanding of current literature is that folks dependent on glacial
melt for their water supplies will be some of the hardest hit-- because
there aren't gonna be any glaciers.

Hi Mary,

I can't base my own comments on any personal scientific knowledge, but
I do have to at least consider the findings of people who really do
study these things, and perhaps have a better scientific
understanding than I do. The unusually large chunks of ice breaking
off of Antarctica are interesting to ponder.

By the way...I was able to reliably rule out global warming when my
beloved Godiva Belgian Dark Chocolate ice cream began to melt at an
alarming rate the other day, because we had a storm blow through,
which effectively disabled my electricity for several hours. :-(

My condolences on the Belgian chocolate ice cream tragedy.
There's no doubt about the climate warming up, and the effect on
winter sports is beginning to be noticed.
The question is whether snow skiers will look for close alternatives
such as paddleskiing
