Here in London, we need a new word for the season we're having. Actually, it already exists- "sprinter." Spring and Winter is what we're having right now. On Sunday, I played in a frisbee tournament in Wimbledon Common. We arrived there at 9am and there was frost in the fields and mist in the air. We were all a bit cold and wore a couple of layers. By about 2pm, I was playing in a tank top (or in the British English, vest) and shorts. I think I got a tan that day. It was an absolutely wonderful day for us. We played 4 games and won 3. The sun was glorious! It was practically summer.
There are some people out there who think global warming doesn't exist - I urge them to get out of their office and house once in a while. On Sunday, it was about 13 degrees Celsius. According to Project Britain, the average temperature for February is about 7 degrees Celsius. This is a significant difference. How can we ignore climate change? Well, ignoring it is easy - doing something about it is different.
