In the 1960's, National Geographic Magazine printed an article about global warming, saying it was happening.
They said that of all the places on earth, the Niagara Peninsula would benefit the most from warmer weather.
That's because we're in between the Great Lakes Erie and Ontario, both moderating influences. If global warming
is the best here, that means it has affected us the most. Birds don't fly south any more. Insects and frogs are
disappearing. When it gets warm in the winter, the trees and crops start to grow, and when it freezes they die.
People used to drive their cars out onto lakes and canals to ice-fish. Not now, no ice, or thin and melting ice.
The average temperature of the Niagara Peninsula has been warmer than Florida, five of the last seven years.
There can be no doubt global warming exists. It began with the over-population of Europe burning wood for
fireplaces, ovens and furnaces. By 1750, there wasn't a tree in England big enough to use for a boat mast.
The natives of southern Ontario noticed a change in their weather, saying winter used to be one long spring,
but now there is an unhealthy chill to the air, and the birds weren't singing as much. There is authentic reality.
