This news of a cool April is all over the news. By which I mean thrown onto the floors of newsrooms around the world.

Hey maybe all those Priuses and my buying “carbon credits” for my car are finally kicking in!
You won’t read about this anywhere because it wasn’t the warmest April in recent times. We only read about “man-made global warming” when it’s a big ole negative thing. If April was .0002 degrees warmer, it would be all over the news. A five-part “Passionate Eye” report on CBC would follow. The “Green Guru” would be interviewed for no particular reason (yes, some university professors too) for ingenious comments.
By the way, no comments will be allowed for this blog entry because we don’t need to hear from the April was cooler “deniers”… the science is settled. The debate: over.
