Dear Winter,

Thanks for making such an early appearance in the Northern Hemisphere.

It’s like we skipped the entire season of fall.

How could the atmosphere be warming if the Earth still gets cold?

Dear Winter,

The environment is clearly healthy and thriving.

We’re on track to the good ol' days of endless snow days again.

Areas in Utah’s Wasatch Mountain Range have reported multiple feet of snow.

And can we really blame the poor air quality entirely on human activity?

Sorry Abasin, looks like they beat you to the punch.

Silverton consistently gets massive amounts of snowfall every year - their average is over 400+ inches a season.

This is not only good for snow activities, it’s beneficial for the rivers as well.

The snowmelt can help flush out toxic waste that might ‘accidentally’ end up in the river.

Luckily, the snowmelt from the San Juan Mountains diluted the toxins and made the river safe again.

Or, well, less-hazardous.

British Colombia has received this season’s early snowfall as well.

Revelstoke, Kicking Horse and Whistler Blackcomb have all shared photos of the first snowfall in the mountain.

Just about as good as it gets in the Rocky Mountain Range, eh?

The pipelines tend to poison water sources, leak toxic gases and cause chemical explosions.

Once again Winter, thanks for sticking around.

Looks like that whole “global warming” issue is officially cooling down.

Who else is stoked for this winter and winters to come?
