no, global warming can cause many extremes in weather. like if it were to cause the ice caps to melt we will be stuck in another ice age.

Question:

If global warming causes temperature extremes, what does global cooling do to climate? Does cooling stabilize weather patterns or does it also cause extremes?

:crazy:

i understand that you are trying to hook me, but any major shift in the global climate will cause extremes in weather.

by the way, in a direct answer to your question, global cooling will cool the overall climate, that is kinda the definition.

Yeah, from what you are saying, global cooling will cause the world to get colder, but our summers will be hotter...
:crazy: :good!:

BTW, do you consider a .5 degree increase in avg. temperature over 100 years a "major shift"? :crazy:

sorry buddy, just because you don't like al gore, doesn't mean the science behind this is any less valid.

He told a half truth in The Inconvenient Truth (which means it was a lie). He showed a correlation between climate and CO2 levels and insinuated that CO2 caused temperature increases.

In fact, the actual data showed that CO2 LAGGED behind temperature by several hundred years. So in essence, temperature caused CO2 increases, not the other way around.

final point, during the "little ice age" average temperatures were only about 2 degrees colder than they are today, i would love to hear someone say that wasn't an extreme change in weather.

thanks for providing somewhat of a valid argument.

that being said, i refuse to watch it, as i don't trust al gore on scientific matters, but when a majority of the scientific community believes that global warming is in fact a real phenomena, i tend to take their word for it.

and that being said, i am not entirely convinced that global warming is "man-made" as much as a cyclical event.

That is just it... there is plenty of debate about if global warming is being caused by man or caused by "the sun"...

I am willing to bet that solar activity has a lot more influence than man...

even if man has a little influence, it would probably still be in man's interest to do whatever it takes to curb said influence.

A good start would be for all the environmentalist wack-Os to jump off a cliff like lemmings. Instant, massive reduction in the carbon footprint of humanity.
