Eco, shmeco.

From The Washington Times' Inside the Beltway column by John McCaslin:

Hot and cold

Eco-doom-mongers, as they're called, don't know what to make of word, first reported by the scientific periodical Nature, that planet Earth is experiencing its first signs of a "new ice age."

Mark Steyn of the London Daily Telegraph quotes Steven Guilbeault of Greenpeace as explaining: "Global warming can mean colder, it can mean drier, it can mean wetter, that's what we're dealing with."

"Got that?" Mr. Steyn asks. "If it's hot, that's a sign of global warming, and, if it's cold, that's a sign of global warming."
