Governments all over the world have been coming up with hard to sell ways to combat global warming, but I have discovered an easy way to do it.
BACKGROUND:
1) In 1974 Canada switched from Fahrenheit to Celsius.
2) First, we take the year the maximum temperature occurred in every Canadian province and territory during the 20th century. I think we would all agree that the average year would be around 1950. This comes about because 50 is the average of for numbers 1 to 100.
THEORY: The best way to combat global warming is to switch to Celsius.
PROOF:
The record temperatures for each province and territory occurred in the following years:
Saskatchewan - 1937
Manitoba - 1936
British Columbia - 1941
Alberta - 1931
Ontario - 1919
Newfoundland - 1914
Quebec - 1921
New Brunswick - 1935
Northwest - 1941
Nova Scotia - 1935
P.E.I - 1935
Yukon - 1969
Nunavut - 1973
average year - >1937
If my theory holds true we can ignore all years after 1974 because Celsius has such an effect on temperature that the probability of reaching a new record after 1974 would be 0%. interestingly enough, if you look at the data above, you can see that all maximum temperatures occurred prior to 1974.
So, now our new data set only included the years 1900 to 1974. With this data, completely random years would produce an average of 1937. AND look at that, the average year of maximum temperature in Canada is 1937. Not only that, but hottest temperature ever recorded in occurred in 1937.
Bonus INFO...
All temperatures were recorded in degrees F as shown below:
Midale/Sweetgrass -> 113 in 1937
St. Albans -> 112 in 1936
Lillooet/Lytton/Chinook Cove -> 112 in 1941
Bassano Dam -> 110 in 1931
Biscotasing -> 108 in 1919
Northwest River -> 107 in 1914
Ville Marie -> 104 in 1921
Nepisiguit Falls -> 103 in 1935
Fort Smith -> 103 in 1941
Collegeville -> 101 in 1935
Charlottetown -> 98 in 1935
Mayo -> 97 in 1969
Ariat -> 93 in 1973
