global warming.

The problem is there's no† 'global warming' in Washington, D.C. and too much 'global warming' in Vancouver, B.C.

When they can show that it is colder in the winter in the USA AND the Arctic is re-freezing, with increasing ice cap and permafrost line moving north, they might have a point. But colder winters and cooler summers in the USA, AS A TREND, are almost required as a mechanism for arctic melting.
