Anyone thinking their wife hasn’t aged too well should look at this lady. Most would have liked a session with her a few years ago.<laugh>

Age and fat shaming is fairly low mate, I’m sure she wished she still looked 20 again as do we all.
 
anyway, temporarily ignoring the societal pressure on this thread to be funny, here are a couple of sources that have been helping me not give a toss about the climate change religion. the ice age promised in the 1970s hasn't shown up and my house hasn't become an island in the middle of the tropical humber ocean. one of them is about a gap in data meant to be collected by satellite and how alternative data for the gap was fiddled by what would later become disciples of st greta the unschooled.

nasa: look, here's some scary data!
heller: yes, and here's what it looked like 50 years ago before you fiddled it.

The climate is changing, we're coming out of an ice age. We're still in one of the coldest periods that the planet has endured.

That is not true, as the issue is the global change in meteorological conditions over time.

The problem with only using that short time frame is that it misses by far and above the bulk of the context, and would lead to inaccurate conclusions and would be unscientific.

You could also make the mistake of looking at the historic temperatures in Britain, as measured by the Met Office, (which have issues with type, location and heat islands to be taken into account), and assume that there is no increase.
