Snow in the deserts of Arabia

For those who despite the evidence still decide to believe in Global Warming, then take a look at the following video which shows recent snow falls in the deserts of Saudi Arabia - places where temperatures of 50 centigrade are nothing, and yet in these clips we see a winter wonderland.

No we're not heading for Global Warming. Based on these scenes you'd think we were heading for the next ice age.

Chinese Freeze

Mention global warming to anyone in China and they'll likely treat you as crazy. China is experiencing one of its most bitter winters on record. Widespread heavy snowfalls have brought chaos across the nation with heavy damage to homes and agriculture. For instance it is estimated that at least 300,00 homes have collapsed under the vast weight of snow and transport interrupted on a scale that is causing damage to the economy. There are also fears that crop damage will bring shortages later in the year with raised vegetable prices that will be shared across the world.

Conditions of extreme cold were also to be found in Vietnam, India and Afghanistan where some estimates believe that up to a 1000 people may have perished in the harsh winter conditions.

So where now for Global Warming? Seems like there's just as much evidence for a coming Ice Age. And one more thing. China is sometimes thought as one of the worst polluters on the planet with heavy smog conditions in the Capital Beijing. So with all that pollution swishing its way around you'd think that China would be a prime candidate for hotter conditions and yet as this winter shows the opposite is happening. It also shows that with regard to Global Warming you can't possibly hope to prove something that isn't happening.
