Sure, It's The Oil Sands...

Just a great cartoon from the Calgary Herald, posted on the Island Breezes blog. Meanwhile, a warm-mongering gathering in Washington D.C. was disrupted by a snow storm.
(CNSNews.com) – Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) had to cancel an appearance Monday at a global warming rally in Washington, D.C., that was hit by a snowstorm because her flight was delayed, her office told CNSNews.com.
...
A blizzard Sunday night and early Monday morning blanketed the nation’s capital with snow, causing events to be cancelled and delayed across the city.

House Select Energy Independence and Global Warming Chairman Edward Markey (D-Mass.), who was scheduled to speak at the global warming event, also canceled his appearance because of the inclement weather, a spokesman from his committee’s office told CNSNews.com on Monday.
Later Markey's communications director tried to blame his absence on a "scheduling conflict", but he wouldn't specify where exactly Markey was at the time the rally took place. So most likely - the weather was to blame.

And guess what - it's not the first time a warm-mongering event gets disrupted by a cold snap or a snow storm. Yeah, that must be because of those oil sands... not being developed intensively enough?...
