@megamarsvin Do you want to hear my idea? I read the Wikipedia artile on Climate change, and there is the Vostok Ice Core graphs, according to which there has been an ice age every 100000 years or so and we are at the highest peak of temperature right now. So winters will get colder, summers will get hotter, and eventually the summers will turn into winters as the planet returns back to ice age for the next 90000 years. They only talk about 150 years which should be part of long term cooling.

I have no clue, personally, as to the validity of current climate change theories.
That said, this was definitely predicted by climate scientists as far back as 10 years at least. More erratic weather patterns, more rain, more flooding were all part of the prediction. Not to mention 2010 has so far been the hottest year on record following one of the coldest winters.
I don't know if that proves anything, but unless I were a scientist myself I wouldn't be so quick to dismiss this.

Euronews is implying that the climate theory has predicted that in 2010 there will so hard rain that it causes floods, because of the Greenhouse Effect. The media is trying to get your attention on their allegation that it is getting this bad. In reality, scientific theories never said that and it is not getting that bad because this is an isolated event and in accord with normal climate, even though an extreme. The mass media tells you lies to impress you, it wants you to buy more theirproduct.
