Could global warming cause an ice age?
On One Hand: Global Warming Could Cause Ice AgeAs global warming melts the polar ice caps, cold, fresh water would flow into the North Atlantic, making the ocean less salty, shutting down the ocean circulation system that produces the Gulf Stream, causing ice to grow and creating an ice age, according to articles at www.commondreams.org and at www.newscientist.com.On the Other: Scientists Debunk Ice Age TheoryStefan Rahmstorf of the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research in Germany said in a New Scientist article titled “Scientists stirred to ridicule ice age claims” that the possibility of melting ice caps making the ocean less salty and causing ice sheets to form is an “unlikely and extreme” scenario.Bottom LineSome scientists subscribe to a global warming theory that would result in melting polar ice caps, a less salty ocean and ultimately an ice age, according to articles at www.commondreams.org and at www.newscientist.com.
Doesn’t matter what the man-made climate change scammers say. They made it all up with phony computer models and junk science. 31,000 scientists say that it;s a hoax: http://www.petitionproject.org/ The founder of the Weather Channel says it’s a hoax: http://www.kusi.com/weather/colemanscorner/38574742.html TEN MYTHS of Global Warming MYTH 1: Global temperatures are rising at a rapid, unprecedented rate. FACT: Accurate satellite, balloon and mountain top observations made over the last three decades have not shown any significant change in the long term rate of increase in global temperatures. Average ground station readings do show a mild warming of 0.6 to 0.8Cover the last 100 years, which is well within the natural variations recorded in the last millennium. The ground station network suffers from an uneven distribution across the globe; the stations are preferentially located in growing urban and industrial areas (“heat islands”), which show substantially higher readings than adjac
