Global Cooling

Whatever shall we do?

Nothing, we're doomed.

Is climate changing? Sure, just as it has been changing for 4+ Billion years from a earth completely covered in an ice sheet to deserts where the poles are.

The only thing I would add to the above is that it has changed back and forth between hot and cold periods numerous times within the above time frame and the cycles are in the 10s of thousands of years.

Might as well drink then.

Tin foil hat conspiracy stuff.

Like arguing with those that believe in chem-trails or alien abductions or orbs.
Arguing with someone about a faith-based belief is futile.

Outa here!

Do a little research, you will find this reported by credible mainstream sources. But then I guess the WSJ is a tin foil paper.

The root of all evil. Oh, wait, that is money.

But if you use it to buy black guns, all will be forgiven.

But if you use it to buy black guns, all will be forgiven.

And if you use it to buy carbon offsets, Al Gore will kiss you.

 

[jrbfishn]

In that case, no carbon offsets for me.

Pretty good correlation there, at least in the northern hemisphere, eh?

Actually, no. The southern hemisphere has a summer also, it is simply opposite ours. If I was there in Jan, Feb and March, I would be warmer there than here.

But you could fall off the edge.

Ummm, that was my point. Right now it is winter in the southern hemisphere.

Seems chilly this morning.

Yeah, we’re only at 82 of our expected 104. Down right nippley out there.

No, the cycles are about every few thousand years. The last ice age ended when the temperature very rapidly rose; something like less than a decade. It's been strangely warm and stable for the past 10000 years.

 

[AustinN4]

No, the cycles are about every few thousand years.

I have a friend in the UT Geophysics Lab whose job it is to measure such things and he says the cycle is roughly every 10,000 years from peak warm to peak cold.

Except for the mini ice age, also known as the dark ages.

Does your friend think there is something wrong with the data from the Greenland and Antarctic ice cores, or does it just not fit "common sense"?

Can't answer that, but the UTGL does do both ice and coral reef bores. What I should have mentioned in my previous post is the within the roughly 10,000 yr peak to peak there are also mini/micro swings during that larger period.
