this is from 1959.

the fact is that the factors underlying weakening in the polar vortex is something we understood before anybody even uttered the phrase "climate change".

we don't need new research to uncover something we've understood for decades. we just need to collect evidence and watch the theories we already have prove themselves - which is exactly what's happening.

the fundamental point is this: as the polar vortex is a solar phenomenon, you should consult solar scientists about how it works. and, when the solar scientists tell you "we don't need dubious speculations from people dabbling well outside their field about melting sea ice to understand how this works", that should be enough to put the issue to rest.

anthropogenic climate change is a real thing.

but, it has nothing to do with the polar vortex, which is controlled by the sun.
