Runes saying Global warming is a myth places you in the same camp as people that believe in aliens hehe :) There is plenty of scientifically irrefutalable hard evidence you can touch it factual data to illustrate all I say. But it has little application to whether or not the US and it's incredibly pollution intensive culture is at fault. Mother nature can outdo the combined history of the US's contribution to global warming all causes no matter how remote, with simple vulcanism. Of course Bush's head in the sand I will pick my petty jobs over your environmental concerns stance will tend to irritate more responsible thinking people. But in the long term, nothing he or anyone else does, is going to prevent the next onset of glaciation. Might as well get over it eh. The only answer that is worth having, is once it starts, is anyone going to be ready for it with anything useful in the way of science to help cushion the effect. For those silly enough to think, oh we will have time. I don't think you have done enough research yet. For a good scenario, try reading The Coming Global Superstorm first, then adopt your complacent stance. Irony its all about irony too. Most are unaware, that the next ice age will wipe out humanity's worst offenders eh. When the ice returns, you can kiss western civilization good bye. It will wipe clean all evidence of Canada aside from Pacific Coast. The northern half of the US, Scandinavia, All of Europe save the mediteranean coastal regions European Russia and most of central Russia, and a large swath of our southern hemisphere. About the only places that won't get the chop, our the worlds currently most wretched places to live. Kinda funny in a way. Our worst off will have the best chance to survive. Assuming the considerable heat spell that precedes major glaciations doesn't get them first. Yeah a funny thing glaciations, they require a considerable warming first to work. Weird eh. This of course requires a big picture perspective. You warm the planet, and you melt ourr current ice. That ice is not saline. Yopu drop the overall oceanic salinity, and you disrupt global current patterns. Neat stuff salt eh. You change the predominant current patterns from north south (which keeps the place cool) to more east west, and you get **** cold northern and southern regions, and hotter equatorial regions. Not to mention weird weather. Oh and by weird weather, I mean the stuff we have as humans not yet experienced at all ever period. You want to view freaky weather, you have to go hunting with the proper sciences. An Ice age doesn't need oodles of years. It can happen in 2. No that wasn't a typo, I said two. I am not saying 1000 feet of snow in 2 (two) years. But after the first 50 feet, it doesn't matter, you won't be there to keep count. Again, I should point out, I don't follow the agends of hyper people like Greenpeace or any other reactionary cause dominated street rabble groups. I contain my reading to actual science text books. It could happen in my life time as easily as the next 1000 years of course. One of those shiit happens things.
