Jeanne Shaheen: “Snowfall Is A Thing of the Past”

Ah, sure thing. Yep, she said that.  A few years ago, to be sure – I doubt that she even remembers. But the Internet never forgets, and neither does GraniteGrok:

Jeanne warned us of these risks on her 2008 Senate campaign site, a quote you won’t find anymore because it has all been scrubbed…

REVERSE GLOBAL WARMING
Reversing global warming is an economic, environmental and health imperative for New Hampshire. If we don’t act to reverse global warming, New Hampshire’s snow season is projected to shrink by almost 50 percent by mid-century, severely impacting our skiing and snowmobile industries. Increasing temperatures also will negatively impact fall foliage tourism, the hunting and fishing industries, and maple sugar production.

If I remember right, last winter wasn’t too shabby, given that the projection was that a two-year-old could do the shoveling of it. But certain, just like her SB711 bill she put in as a state senator that destroyed the medical insurance marketplace here in NH. But years down the line, she’s quite wrong. From the NY Times, she gets a spankin’:

 Lastly, California’s last day of snow skiing this year was. . . yesterday, August 6.

The New York Times was not happy about this climate narrative confounding story:

It’s August. Californians Are Still Skiing. Don’t Ask.

Two of the biggest ski resorts on Lake Tahoe were still hopping on the Fourth of July, a time of year when the mountains are usually full of wildflowers. Mammoth Mountain, 140 miles south of the lake, got a positively Alaskan 75 or so feet of snow at its summit and is only now celebrating the final day of the season. . .

In mid-July, well after all the hot dogs and fireworks, I headed up to the Sierra and ran into so much lingering snow that the road through Yosemite National Park hadn’t yet opened for the season. . .

Remember how we were told a decade ago that snowfalls would soon become a thing of the past, and ski resorts were threatened with extinction?

And California has gone from severe drought to bountiful snow in just a year’s time. Things change and change all the time. Especially the weather AND the climate. See, I’m no denier – and millions of years of history have taught us all that lesson. The only deniers are those religious bigots that believe that mankind can change, with our current puny technology, that climate.

Jeanne Shaheen, however, is no religious bigot when it comes to climate change – she’s far less than that. Merely a political opportunist.
