It's going to freeze BEFORE it's going to melt. The Kerry Global Warming Scenario.
The science is settled, we are headed towards an ice age.

No, no, get with the program...
Global warming is going to cause the next ice age...
They've got their bases covered...
No matter what happens they're right...
I love the internet time machine!!
Time magazine? Dang! Does anyone still read that?
I specifically remember reading about our coming ice age back in the 1970s. You just don't understand the complexity of the situation, but I will explain it for you.
Climate problems increase only while there is a Republican president; under a Democrat, the climate gods are given all sorts of hugs and cute bumper stickers, so they are kinder to us then.
Also, there is an economic component. If there are no climate chicken littles, people will not send gobs of money to the liars at World Wildlife Federation, the Nature Conservancy, the Sierra Club, the Audubon Society, etc.
Chills and hot flashes?
Could the Mother Earth be going through menopause?
"Freeze or fry, the problem is always industrial capitalism, and the solution is always international socialism."
Dr . Malcolm Ross
"Whatever the cause of the cooling trend, its effects could be extremely serious, if not catastrophic. Scientists figure that only a 1% decrease in the amount of sunlight hitting the earth's surface could tip the climatic balance, and cool the planet enough to send it sliding down the road to another ice age..."
TIME Magazine, 2006:
"Never mind what you've heard about global warming as a slow-motion emergency that would take decades to play out. Suddenly and unexpectedly, the crisis is upon us..."
1974 - Ice Age - Nixon's fault
2006 - Global Warming - Bush's fault
And in between then and now we had the terrors of EL NINIO!
Considering how difficult it is for polar bears to get under water, this is ludicrous.
Here is the original Time article.. http://www.glennbeck.com/2006news/newsweek-coolingworld.pdf
Newsweek's article I meant .. oops
btt
Sorry, but thats over 30 years ago. Plenty has changed since then, science wise.
"Barf!" is correct. Gobal Climate Barf.
The question to ask here is:
If temps dropped globally by and average of 2.7 degrees, then could it not be argued that the RISE in average temps since 1974 brings us BACK to pre-1940 levels?
