Now that they've renamed global warming to climate change, they can blame any weather event on climate change. I'm sure a plan is in the works to blame even this cold snap on climate change as well.

semi-autonomous nation of Greenland.</p> <P>On Disko Bay in western Greenland, where a number of prominent world leaders 
have visited in recent years to get a first-hand impression of climate change, 
temperatures have dropped so drastically that the water has frozen over for the 
first time in a decade.</p> <P>'The ice is up to 50cm thick,' said Henrik Matthiesen, an employee at 
Denmark's Meteorological Institute who has also sailed the Greenlandic coastline 
for the Royal Arctic Line. 'We've had loads of northerly winds since Christmas 
which has made the area miserably cold.'</p> <P>Matthiesen suggested the cold weather marked a return to the frigid 
temperatures common a decade ago.</p> <P>Temperatures plunged to -25°C earlier this month, clogging the bay with ice 
and making shipping impossible for small crafts, according to Anthon 
Frederiksen, the mayor of the town of Ilulissat, where Disko Bay is located.</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.cphpost.dk/get/105114.html">an advantage for fishermen who rely on dogsleds for
