Exactly. "global warming isn't real because it's still snowing" gets ridiculed (as it rightly should), but I find it appalling that "global warming is real because it snowed really late where I lived" gets a free pass.

You really are scared of what's happening aren't you?

Of what? The climate/ecosystems as we know it dramatically changing? Yeah, but not "we're literally going extinct" scared.

Climate change is real, not global warming. Weather is now much more extreme due to human actions. "Global warming" does not get a free pass. Please do not spread misinformation.

Please re-read my comment. I'm not denying climate change, only expressing my disapproval of how flawed arguments in favor of climate change gets a free pass.
