Summarize Argument: Counter-Position
The author concludes that England’s mild winters are not due to the Gulf Stream, which brings warm water to England.

Identify Conclusion
The conclusion is the author’s rejection of the wide belief regarding the cause of England’s mild winters: “[T]his belief is mistaken.”
