Is the stock market going to go up, or down?

Yes.

We need to burn up all the fossil fuels. This will release all that missing carbon into the biosphere, which will in turn support lots more plant life. Then the deserts can be reclaimed for productive use.

I remember how the environmentalists in the early 1970s were warning that pollution would cause another ice age. When the ice age failed to materialize, they started crying global warming. Looks like its time to go back to crying ice age.

I really don't want to support the "Global Warming" thing..But I must say..here in Western PA..It's been WAY TOO mild of a winter. It's either that, or my blood is seriously thick this season..

Every 100,000 years, the global climate sharply transitions into a major ice age due to astronomical factors.

Guess what, that historical transition is due now.

I thought the ice age cycle was closer to 10,000 years.

Am I wrong???

Burn coal to fire the power plants to power the equipment to drill ANWR!

In recent millions of years, ice ages have been the norm and the "interglacial periods" have been typically short, on the order of 10,000 years long, with the typical ice ages lasting much longer.

We are currently near the end of a 10,000 year warm (interglacial) period.
