    Niño Brown?

    I think the real concern is that rising global temperatures will cause the ocean currents to fluctuate too wildly which could cause drastic climate changes in both directions.

    I don't know if this is good or bad for me.

    On the one hand, less winter.
    On the two hand, I'm vulnerable to heat and get 20% more damage from attacks based on it.
    On the third hand, has anyone noticed how bipolar the weather has been this summer? Sun and storm, bake and pour. And a bloody lot lightning.

    Still, as they say, global warming could contribute to the next ice-age, cause of the extra humidity in the air that is then trapped in the polar caps.

    So we have either a) natural fluctuations b) unnatural fluctuations, and both can be (1 a Waterworld 2) an Ice Age world.

    Ed forgot to mention that here in Chicago we actually hit a record low this summer where it was in the 30's or something like that. I was in Cancun at the time, though.

    On the other hand, we might see something like...



    Granted that's New York, but you get the point. All the damage we do will be irrepairable.

    Man that movie sucked...

    *Ahem* Yeah the enviroment is getting distroyed more day by day, yet no one(important) seems to care, especially not that president of ours who wants to tear the crap out of every wildlife reserve left in America.

    But to tell you the truth, I don't think any big things like this will happen. I think global warming theorys are bulltrout personally.

    What do you think happens when you drive your car? It burns the fuel, combine that with millions of cars, and it is going to heat up the asphalt, which retains heat very well. That alone is reason enough to believe the global warming theories, at least for me anyway. Combine that with all of the other things industrialization does, and to me, it looks like we are heading straight for disaster.

    True, and I'm not saying global warming is an impossibility, but I find it easier to believe the temperature trend theorys than the global warming ones.

    Don't get me wrong though, I too think mother nature's been wronged and she'll obtain her vengance on us in mere time.
    I like Kung-Fu.

    Could you be so kind as to explain the difference? I don't see one. Global warming is a trend.
