“Earth was once frozen entirely, down to the equator.”

Up from the South Pole too?

It’s those damn cavemen that discovered fire. Ever since man has been polluting the Earth’s atmosphere causing global warming. The first major catastrophe caused by man made glowbull warming was the killing off of the dinosaurs. We are next.

Then God created Carbon Dioxide and saved the planet.

And the Laurentide ice sheet was a mile thick from where I type (upper Midwest) forming the Great Lakes only 12,000 years ago. The global warmists don’t tell you that however.

“New findings from Colorado’s rock formations provide physical evidence supporting the Snowball Earth theory, which suggests Earth was once frozen entirely, down to the equator.”

And the marx-o-crats are trying to bring this back.

I wonder if they are taking into account continental drift.

First the earth cooled. And then the dinosaurs came, but they got too big and fat, so they all died and they turned into oil. And then the Arabs came and they bought Mercedes Benzes. And Prince Charles started wearing all of Lady Di’s clothes. I couldn’t believe it. He took her best summer dress, put it on and went to town.

That is a very good question. And that would have also affected ocean currents, would have in turn affected atmospheric currents.

We have a bad habit of only looking for just one cause of things when it might be several influences together in the right combination.

I think this may be why we can’t figure anything out. We are not open to looking for “combinations”.

Yup. And if the dinosaurs had been walking instead of flying everywhere on their private jets they wouldn’t have gotten fat and they’d still be around.

liberals look at just a few data points of a complex system and think they understand it and can control it.

Can we even count all the variables in climate?

I agree... A butterfly on one side of the earth could create a hurricane on the other side... lol

We really do not know it all.

No.

Weather is a dynamic system, always in a state of flux, which is why it’s next to impossible to accurately forecast anything more than a couple days out.

It’s like trying to hit a randomly moving target from a galloping horse.

Plus, I doubt we even know all the variables in what affects climate and weather and know HOW they affect them.

We cannot know what we do not know. That is why, all the “scientists” working backward from the desired outcome, must rely on something called the “Finagle Factor” to always make their calculations and predictions come out right, or at least seem to be plausible.

Science, REAL science, cannot predict anything, cannot explain fully any phenomena, and is never settled. The scientific method is a process, not a conclusion.

If I was to take a guess on what causes the cycles in the 3 graphs above in my post # 42, it'd be the Milankovitch cycles of the Earth.

My first old school statistics professor said day one, “Statistics never gives you an answer, at best it might give you another question.”

Is that said in any statistics class any more?

[Up from the South Pole too?]

Those are “undocumented glaciers”.
