Why the World’s Climate is Changing.
Our climate is becoming milder. There are exceptions, of course, but generally speaking, extremes of cold in winter no longer occur as they did in years gone by. Nor does this apply only to our own country. It is the same all over the world. Iceland is no longer what its name implies—the land of ice. During the winter of 1920-21 there was neither snow nor frost there, and for many previous winters there has been very little.
The ice on the Neva River in Russia breaks up three weeks earlier than it did a generation ago. The Alpine glaciers are everywhere retreating, so that cultivation is now possible in valleys which, within the memory of people still alive, were icebound all the year round. In Candace, year by year the area under wheat is being extended northward, sure sign that the weather there is becoming milder. The Governor of the Falkland Islands reported recently that the climate there is not nearly so severe as it was seventy, or eighty years ago. Similar instances could be quoted almost indefinitely, and the combined evidence from so many different sources is irresistible. extremes of cold in winter no longer occur as they did in years gone by
In a book entitled “Warmer Wintersand the Earth’s Tilt,” Major R. A. Marriottsets forth his theory as to the reason for this world-wide phenomenon.
Briefly put, his contention is that the earth is gradually changing its position so as to bring the poles more directly under the sun’s rays, with the result that the ice-caps stored there during; past ages are gradually diminishing in size. ‘We are, in fact, at the tail end of the last great Ice Age, which was at its maximum about 15,000 years ago, when ;the greater part of Europe was shrouded under an ice-cap a mile or more!thick. This was the period when the earth was tilted in such a way; that the heat of the sun was concentrated on the tropical and sub-tropical regions of the globe, the poles getting hardly any.
The process is now being reversed.| So in a time which may not be very far off, large areas near the North Pole will be rendered productive for the requirements of mankind and-capable of supporting a large population. England will then return to the subtropical conditions which geologists as-‘sure us prevailed here before the beginning of the last great glacial period, some 30,000 years ago.

Funny to read how this journalist sees the positives from a warming world.
The point is, this report is from 1923, with a considerably lower CO2 concentration in the atmosphere, yet we are told we are currently warming out of control because of increasing CO2. Something of a disconnect I think, especially with no warming for at least 17 years and we are back in a likely cooling cycle, possibly of the order of the 60’s and 70’s, with that higher CO2.
Conclusion? CO2 does not do to the temperature of the earth what is claimed for it. End of scare.
“especially with no warming for at least 17 years”–and you would be exactly wrong:
“A July 2015 paper on the updated NOAA dataset cast doubt on the existence of this supposed hiatus, and found no indication of a slowdown.[10][11] This analysis incorporated the latest corrections for known biases in ocean temperature measurements, and new land temperature data. Scientists working on other datasets welcomed this study, though the view was expressed that the short term warming trend had been slower than in previous periods of the same length”–https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Global_warming_hiatus; see also: http://www.yaleclimateconnections.org/2015/06/new-noaa-reports-shows-no-recent-warming-slowdown-or-pause/
You sourced a paper on an updated NOAA dataset? LOL!!! NOBODY believes anything the NOAA has to say about global warming! Well, one person, anyway. How funny!
Yeah-who would believe anything the NOAA says-after all, it’s scientists are part of the Grand Conspiracy.
Now you’re catching on! There is hope yet!
may the march to enlightenment continue! next up: exposing the truth behind the so-called moon landing in 1969; and how the Jews were behind the 9-11 attacks. Are you with me, my fellow Mis Info Warrior?
Slow down there, Sparky. You are becoming a bit overzealous with your new-found Age of Freedom. You need to balance common sense and research before coming to any conclusions. Otherwise you will start sounding like one of those progressive/liberal/far-left/One World/truth is lies and lies is truth nutcases. Oh wait….you still believe NOAA in spite of their massive data tampering. There may not be any hope for you after all.
Naw. I’m just following the same conspiracy-laden logic that has led you onto your path of enlightenment…
