For as long as I can remember now I've been hearing the warmest, the coldest, there wettest and the dryest.... weather since.. and I know something's up.
I'm also a postgraduate scientist and can tell you statistical "proof" is an elusive goal. For many scientists there's not quite enough proof that the current weather patterns are man made and not part of a natural cycle.
Weather patterns are too complex to model scientifically and we'll all be either treading water or drinking our own piss before the scientists shout "eureka"
Too many politicians and counties have a short-term view of the world or have other priorities eg growth and I'm really pessimistic about our prospects.
