Global warming enthusiasts always have a way of explaining cold weather: it's either simply weather, not climate; or (and I really like the ingenuity of this): with global warming comes wild fluctuations of weather. That's what polar explorer Ann Bancroft and her companion used as an excuse last season when they were forced to abandon an expedition across Ellsmere Island because of extreme cold. The purpose of the trip was to demonstrate the effects of global warming in the arctic.
