Globally, the winter of 2014-15 was the warmest winter on record at that time, but it sure didn't seem that way for most of the eastern United States. This region
experienced record-low temperatures and extreme snowfall, especially in the
northern and coastal areas. During this period of extreme cold and snow, it was
not uncommon to see comments on social media disputing climate change. For
example, some commenters took pictures of huge piles of snow and added
comments such as, "This doesn't look like global warming."
Do these commenters have a point? Should extreme snowfall over the course of
a season cast doubt on the theory of global climate change? Make a scientific
argument explaining why you agree or disagree with these commenters.
