^ That's interesting stuff. The Arctic ice is shrinking while the Antarctic ice is increasing (and seems to be much more volatile).

As for hurricanes, I thought the problem was that they were fewer in number, but they ones that we got were more damaging. It's better to have lots of weak ones than several monsters, right?

 

Yes, but there is evidence that solar flares have been factors in these storms.

 

The conventional thinking is that warmer waters increase the storms (and thats true), but why does the additional heat have to come from below the storm? Additional heat hitting the top of the storm could do the same thing.

 

At the times of our largest hurricanes, we had lots of solar activity.

From what I understand I would have to say you're wrong here. The sheer quantity of thermal energy held in water is massive compared to the atmosphere above it. There simply isn't enough energy for the storm to be powered from the atmosphere or the sun.
