‘Snowfalls are now just a thing of the past’

‘Snowfalls are now just a thing of the past’
By Robert Bradley Jr. -- March 5, 2025
“Children just aren’t going to know what snow is.”

– David Viner, Climatic Research Unit, University of East Anglia (2000)

One argument against the climate alarmism is the failed predictive record of the scientist-activists themselves. One salient example can be found in The Independent (March 20, 2000), “Snowfalls are now Just a Thing of the Past. The prediction belonged to David Viner, a senior research scientist at the climatic research unit (CRU) of the University of East Anglia (yes, of Climategate infamy).

The Independent has deleted this article, but secondary sources have captured it for posperity. As in: never forget….


“Britain’s winter ends tomorrow with further indications of a striking environmental change: snow is starting to disappear from our lives,” the article began. Continuing:

But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

I've had continuous snow cover in my yard since about mid-December. Must be my imagination.

Probably the same as what landed on ours.

I wish my back pain was just as imaginary as that white stuff I shoveled this morning.

Are there any good ski or snow-boarding resorts in East Anglia?

Eastern Mass finally had an old-fashioned colder winter this year.  The previous few were mild, but, not to worry, a steady flow of Alberta Clippers kept that fresh, dry, cold Arctic air coming.

Sounds like Dr. Viner might have a snow problem up his nose.

Hard to believe that North Florida had some areas receive like 6" of snow this year. The first major snow most of them had ever seen.

We had 5.5 inches here in the Redneck Riviera.  I'll take snow over hurricanes!

Plenty of jokes in the thread replies.

But what I find most interesting is this:
"The Independent has deleted this article..."

(even though it got "captured" by other sites, presumably waybackmachine, etc.)

Sounds like something right out of Orwell.
What we published in the past has been proven to be discredited?
Well, then, delete the source article.
