As if to back up the many, many recent reports of the onset of global cooling from distinguished scientists around the world, Brazil, whose northern border touches the Equator and lies in the Southern Hemisphere where seasons are opposite of ours in the Northern Hemisphere, meaning that when we have warm temperature months the lower half of the earth is experiencing cold weather. Equatorial countries rarely ever have weather cold enough to produce sleet and snow. So Brazil experiencing these latter weather-produced phenomena is an almost positive sign that the ridiculous blusterings of Al Gore and his sycophants calling for measures to stop global warming are fallacious and unfounded in fact.
