Even in the face of such insurmountable odds, the powers-that-be are continuing to push their anthropogenic global warming narrative.
Record-breaking cold has swept large swathes of the planet of late: from
Alaska to
the Alps; from
India to
Iceland; and from

across central and eastern areas have plunged more than
