I saw a really stupid movie like that, but everyyone froze because of global warming, not cooked.
Whatta pimp.
I think it’s funny these people think the melting of the Arctic ice cap will raise sea levels. I guess their momma’s never read them the story or Archimedes. Eureaka!
ping
Archimedes is all Greek to them.
Sooner than their research grants run out?
Okay. So it happened. But, since Scotland in NOT tropical at this time that means it reversed.
But, wait!
Fred Pearce, of the New Scientist, has spent the past two years speaking to climate experts who are studying the possibility of "type 2" climate change - abrupt, catastrophic and irreversible.
It it's irreversible why isn't Scotland still tropical?
These people lie and can't keep track of the lies from one sentence to the next.
The religion of Global Warmism issues another dire warning to whip up the faithful.

"Climate refugees"? Has anyone heard this term used before? We may have a new global warming term.
Scientists might also point out that while this happened there wasnt a damned thing anyone could do about it.
Man does not run this planet, scientists are not in charge of weather, they cant even get tomorrow’s forecast right.
I am actually looking forward to it. You see, it will put my home in a Med climate one hour from the beach and 45 minutes from the mountains. Perfect. Just like back in the Cretaceous when the dinosaurs killed themselves with their SUVs and fluorcarbons.
And when was that? I would like to see some data. Or was it just a brief warm spell and then back to normal (at least for this millenia)?
...and yesterday I got to listen to John Kerry, talk about taxing carbon emissions, I believe the motivation might be to pay for the as yet unknown expenditures related to poor past energy policy, or lack of, and the overiding need of government to be in control of everything, including the climate.
The movie was stupid, but the idea of an ice age as the result of a preceeding warming period is not.
The best evidence is that ice ages are, and there’s even a proposed mechanism: the shut-down of thermohaline circulation in the oceans when the melting of ice partially desalinates the polar oceans. Heat is no longer moved from the tropics, the poles cool, the new ice and snow cover increase the albedo of the earth, and voila, an ice age.
The evidence we have for ice ages past also suggests they begin almost instantaneously (in geological terms) with the onset on the scale of a decade, not a century or millenium. Consistent with the next-winter sort of onset in the silly movie, though I suspect two decades is more like it.
Personally, I think global warming is 1. real, 2. caused by natural solar cycles and natural thawing and freezing cycles for polar ice and methane hydrates, *not* industrial CO_2 emissions, and 3. more likely to end in an ice age within the lifetime of our grandchildren than in a return to the temperature in the age of the dinosaurs.
It’s happening already on the East Coast ! Springtime overnight temps in the 20s. Gak ! We’re all gonna die of climate change here if it doesn’t warm up soon !
I don't disagree, but not overnight.
Ah, you have done considerable homework! well done.
