I hope they’re correct, but if there’s a tremendous amount of magma pouring into the ocean I think we have a problem. The magma could be as much as 2,150 degrees Fahrenheit - 10 times the boiling point – which could lead to much warmer seas and thence to an ice age.

Where do they get these science writers? Good grief!

No matter, it's still Bush's fault.

Here's my preferred means of melting ice, with a bit of tonic mixed in:

See, this is what happens when you don't ratify the Kyoto Accord. Rising CO2 levels in the atmosphere coupled with oil drilling in Alaska has raised the temperature of the earth's crust...

"Underwater volcano erupting 700 miles SE of Tokyo - July 3, 2005 - The coast guard sent helicopters to monitor a huge column of steam more than half-a-mile wide rising above the Pacific Ocean southeast of Tokyo, and warned ships to stay away. The water in the area was brick-red."

Soon, Godzilla will be destroying Tokyo and there is nothing any one will be able to do to stop it.

India Daily? That's a New Jersey-based sham news blog.

Could also explain the increased number of really fierce hurricanes and typhoons.

They feed off of warmer water.

I guess this was just overlooked by the super genius's that blame Humans for Global Warming.

It's still Bush's fault ... somehow.

Global warming is real, not from above but, from below! I've read there are new islands forming below the ocean around Hawaii that will eventually add to the chain. Are there underwater volcanoes in the Caribbean?

Not to mention running submarines into seamounts.

I've long speculated that El Niño is created by underwater volcano vents. It's the only thing that makes sense to me. Some years the venting is worse than others, accounting for worse weather conditions.

i would have never thought about it... did not actually realize this even goes on, the sheer numbers...

Quick, sacrifice some SUVs and throw money at the alter of Global Warming.

Kind of reminds me of the sesQuest episode "An Ocean on Fire".

The warming effect of underwater volcanoes on ocean temps is insignificant compared to the effect of sunlight on the water
