The NFL Game in Green Bay, Wisconsin, was -1 below 0, if there wasn't any global warming, what would the temp

Question

be?

Answer 1

Approximately -2 degrees fahrenheit.  Global temperature increase because of global warming is only about 1 degree.

Answer 2

Temperatures would have likely been the same. You're making the common mistake of mixing weather with climate. I can't tell you what the temperature would have been in Green Bay, Wisconsin during the game yesterday (weather), with or without climate change, but I can tell you that it would likely be colder than Cairo, Egypt (climate).

The temperature in Wisconsin yesterday was just normal winter weather, and winter will continue regardless of a gradual increase in global temps.

Answer 3

I think global warming effects isolated area on the globe primarily the the ice caps and their melting.

Answer 4

While the entire country is experiencing temperatures far below normal, and with record snow falls this year, the only thing we can be sure about is that Dr. Jim Hansen will declare 2008 as the warmest year ever recorded for the climate.

Just like periods of above average temps, below ave temps are normal as well. We are experiencing average weather.  Nothing to be alarmed over.

Answer 5

friggin cold

Answer 6

Global warming hasn't affected the planet so drastically in areas like Wisconsin yet. The temperature of the planet will rise gradually.

Answer 7

Global warming does not warm-up the planet evenly - there will be more extremes of weather conditions though with  warmer spells in some places, colder spells in others, far more precipitation(snow and rain) in some areas or more prolonged droughts.

Scientists talk about "average" rises in temperatures so it is hard to say whether it would have made much difference in this specific case.

Answer 8

Just get a dart board and put different temps on it, then throw darts at it and you will come up with your answer.

Answer 9

Be careful of the old "don't confuse temperature and climate" argument. Can they be different? Does it ever snow in the jungles of the Amazon? No. Does it ever hit 100 degrees in the Arctic circle? No. So there is a correlation between the two.

Ah and now we're getting the "global warming doesn't warm up the globe evenly" comment. That's brilliant. Somehow global warming is picking and choosing were it 'strikes'.
