Biggest difference:



People in the north are prepared for cold/weather. In the south, you prepare for 100+ degree summers, drought, snakes, zombie apoc...but Al Gore assured us things would ONLY get warmer......so we NEVER suspected he would be......[gasp] WRONG

Welllllllllllll...... that the globe, as a whole, would get warmer, which creates more chaotic systems, that result in more severe weather and disruption of traditional weather patterns. The problem with the way that the whole thing was approached, is that scientists tend to forget that regular people don't speak or understand thing like, well, scientists. That's one reason that the whole bloody thing has been rebadged as "climate change"; people didn't understand what the term "global warming" really meant.

It always cracks me up when people from New York or Chicago, etc. Make fun of us because we had an inch of snow and the schools, etc. shut down. I like to remind them we have something here they may not have heard of. Hills!
I wish they had called it climate change from the very beginning! I think it would have been taken seriously but, considering the average intelligence of those in power, it was beyond them to comprehend what global warming actually meant!

A friend of mine who grew up along the Niagara Escarpment and moved down to shitville, around 2002, was a little confused as to why a little freezing rain caused the business that she was working for to close. Then she saw the carnage that was mostly due to a complete lack of equipment to deal with it, and a complete lack of understanding on how to drive a vehicle in such conditions.

Actually it did come to pass and continues to, despite a complete failure of the general public to understand it.

Funny that most of the same people who argue against "global warming", aka "climate change", fail to believe in the one, despite scientific evidence of its existence, but were willing to believe the other based on just the word of people who lie for a living.
