Could governments have done more in the past to prevent global warming?

Yes, we have known about global warming since about the middle of last century, but governments have been slow to act. Politicians rarely can see beyond the next election, and action on global warming takes some years before we see a result. Now, as global warming and its effects are beginning to be more obvious governments may act.

Is there snow in Merced?

last time that it snowed in merced where it was measurable snow was back in 1998. Since then there has been some occasional flurries and traces of snow in recent years. It can snow if conditions are right, and with global warming like it is, it could snow again. The last time it snowed in Merced was around 2006. I've lived here since the early 70's and it's snows consistently about once every ten years. It has nothing to do with global warming. Weather is cyclical.
