And ice caps growing or receding isn't as much a function of how cold the winters are, as how warm the summers are, get a crap summer and not as much melts as usual.
It's colder summers that bring on ice ages, not colder winters, so with warmer summers the ice caps will shrink.
As for CO2, what about all those damned beef cattle farting Methane into the atmosphere, a far more powerful greenhouse gas, beware, Mr. Gore will take away your burgers, and make you become vegetarians..........![]()
Technically the most enviromentally friendly diet includes some meat, think the study was done by Princeton cant quite remember. Look it up if you want. I like to mention it to **** off vegies.Originally posted by BTOG46:

LOL no they didnt. I seem to remember reading some IPCC documents on the effects the sun spots would have and there were plenty of news reports on it back at the start of 2008 on the BBC. Your bullsh1t news sources are the problem here. Is this the best you can do, gimme a break.Originally posted by Von_Rat:
wasnt the gw crowd telling us that the ice was going to totally melt at the noth pole this year.
i guess THEIR psuedo science didnt take sunspots into account either.

LOL yes they did.
it was clearly stated that gw scientists were predicting the north pole would be ice free this year and not a bloody word about sunspots.
this is what national geographic had to say,, or are they a bs news source to,, haha.

is that the best you can do to try to worm out of it,,, gimme a break.
ocean acidification is not a prediction , & its not a new claim
the worry is that CO2 uptake is slowing because the ocean is reaching a limit on the amount of CO2 it can absorb . the direct result of having too much CO2 in the system is that entire oceans are becoming more acidic
coral reefs in the water are the tunnel canary , as glacier's are above ground
