Yes, and cause for drowning polar bears by bringing the wrath of Global Warming down upon us all...
Meanwhile scientists are trying to salvage their credibility by asking if we are prepared enough for the "new ice age".
Ice Age Imminent (and similar articles)
*sigh*
I think those are different scientists. The iceagenow.info blog has been covering the school of climatology prevalent in Russia and Denmark that studies solar phenomena, rather than general circulation models of the earth’s atmosphere, all throughout the attempt to foist hysteria about anthropogenic global warming on the world. It is vilified as a “denier” site by the “scientists” you mistakenly believe are trying to salvage credibility.
I would note that the solar models of the earth’s climate the predict an approaching ice age agree with observation going back centuries, while the atmospheric models that support anthropogenic global warming can’t be forced to fit observation back even fifty years.
For the past 10 or 12 years, we have not had a proper summer.
Last year, in the beginning of October, we had a devastating *ice storm* that nearly took out my willows and mulberry.
I despise this “global warming” lie.
We used to be out on the Harleys by the end of March and rode clear into November.
Now, we’re lucky if we get out by mid-June and by mid-September, we’re done.
As the 33 year cycle has come full circle, we’re back to worrying about the next ice age...just like the late ‘70s, only the whole AGW thing has slowed the response to real data this time....
