Yes it affects it, as does Nino, but we are getting to the end of a solar period and IT IS GETTING HOTTER FASTER. 3. Ok you got Greenland. Where else is getting more productive? What percentage of land is getting less productive? How come the price of imported food has risen. Hoe come there is mass migration right now in Africa? I can keep going because clearly you got very little to substantiate the argument that it is "improving" the earth. That last point btw pisses me off royal. Someone should force you go to live in an already dry climate, such as south africa, and watch the rainfall percentage dwindle each yr. |
1) The Eemian was a recent interglacial period that had as a characteristic large changes in global temperature from warm periods to cold periods which represents much more rapid change than we're seeing today. It's called google, use it and stop believing what people who will make hundreds of millions of dollars if they can convince you we're in a massive crisis tell you.
2) So we should abandon science and just accept the religion of global warming when there is a viable alternative hypothesis that the object that is (directly or indirectly) responsible for the entire climate of the Earth may have an impact on its current state?
3) There has been several published articles which indicate that the majority of the change in temperature in the world at all periods of time is at the poles; and a 10 degree change in average worldwide temperature represents a 2 or 3 degree change around the equator and a 20 degree change at the poles.
Now, one thing I do wonder about but I have seen no discussion on is that as the temperature of the earth increases we should see greater evaporation of water from lakes and oceans which should translate into greater rainfall throughout most of the world. I could be wrong, and it would be worthwhile for someone to do research into it, but I suspect that you would probably find that the quantity of water brought inland from the oceans would be greater than what we see today and we would see an increase in the quantity of fresh water in most areas.
