Okay, fine, but what to do?

Certainly not nothing. We know that the climate is changing. How do we adapt asap and with minimal cost.

We cannot let entire populations perish. It is our responsibility to not allow this. So what do to prepare? According to this, the answer is not to stop buring oil, but at least to prepare for the coming changes.

The coming of the next ice age, June 30, 2002

Reviewer:

Natalie Kilpatrick (Omaha, NE United States) - See all my reviews

After hearing an interview with Robert Felix on a radio show, I desperately wanted this book, but for some reason I just never ordered it. Well, after I finally did, I'm not disappointed in what I read.

Whether you believe that the next ice age is coming or not; and whether you believe that the dinosaurs, mammoths, etc. were wiped out by an ice age or not; there's more to this book than just that.

Mr. Felix goes into great details to explain what scientists theorize makes an ice age happens. He mainly describes polar-magnetic reversals (where the north and south poles flip); nuclear explosions on the sun, earth, and miles above the earth (those creating the Aurora Borealis); earthquakes and earthquake lightes; sudden climatic changes; etc.

The book also tells us how an instantaneous ice age can occur (feet upon feet of snow in hours). Notes are made about when 5 inches of rain falls that can actually add up to 50 inches of snow. He goes on and on about places that have received this much rain in such short periods of time, going on that it can happen with snow, not just rain. The only problem I have with this theory is that when it rains so much, its usually in an isolated area, not hemisphere-wide like he's trying to suggest.

All in all, I think it makes for one hell of a book. It's definitely one that I'm going to keep for years and years to come! But, when it starts snowing... Be afraid. Be very afraid.

AKKK, my eyes! Great research Ernest, but if I want to read it, I have to adjust my font size to the smallest size, then readjust it back to medium to read the comments. Is there a way to shrink the fonts back to normal?

Unghhh... My eyes.

Thanks

Nice advertisement for someone's book. Are you a friend of his?

Here's a clue... Before you can have an ice age, you need to evaporate a lot of sea water. A whole lot.

We haven't even started.

Okay, Everybody quit breathing for 5 minutes every hour. That ought to slow down the CO2 buildup and reverse this killer trend.

Thanks for the ping. Ice core data show that CO2 levels have risen *after* glaciation ended and the world warmed, lagging by hundreds of years, IOW, the CO2 rose as a byproduct of warming, not the other way.
