There's a mini ice age coming, says man who beats weather experts

A man who uses solar activity to study weather, and has an amazing rate of accuracy, claims that his study shows we are heading into another ice age around 2035. Given that history shows ice ages follow periods of warming, and the weather patterns in Europe and the US this year, his warnings may be worth considering.

No it can't be true. Al Gore said we are causing the Earth to get hotter, and he can't be wrong.

I will give you another ice age is coming, and it looks like I will miss it. I would appreciate one to be frank, just because i prefer cold to hot. It will have not a thing to do with man and man's silly wants however.

All that's happened is the tide has changed, which always happens, and always will untill the sun expands and kills earth.

Global warming and cooling of the northern hemisphere are not antithetical concepts.

This is why they changed the term from Global Warming to Climate Change.

Because everyone assumes the entire planet will just get hotter. Some parts will while others will get colder.

I totally believe in it... I just am not sure that humans are the cause.
I think it is just a natural thing and there is nothing we can do about it. Although we should still try to limit our impact on this Earth of ours.

yeah weather is subject to change. You otter try living in NH. No matter what the weather is, if you don't like it, in a minute it will be different.

Yesterday it snowed 5 times added up to naught, the sun was out several times it cloulded over many more times , rained a second, then was calm and then windy with in a moment.

I object to the idea man altered the weather by driving cars, burning wood, and etc.

Choose any larger volcano going up in rock and smoke and then you get a weather system change, change ocean currents, add or subtract water from the 7 seas and you get changes, but these are not man made and man can't stop them.

We can pollute the hell out of the air and water, poision the earth, but we don't change the weather in the ways everyone thinks so commonly.

It's like blaming sailing ships for hurricanes or stuffing air from a box of Kleenx.

Every time a volcano goes off it releases more ozone depleting chemical than man has through all of time. Yet don't through out a fridge, every little bit helps, lol, lol!

I particularly love when someone in Cleveland says on a forum: "It snowed a foot today and it's 20 degrees! The Earth isn't warming!"

It is. But don't expect Floridian like winters here for at least 200 years... and that's if this hmmm.... new name for it, the "Natural Warming Trend" .... continues.

But I still firmly believe we should care about where our fridges go and where we get our energy from. Just because I believe it isn't our fault doesn't mean I agree with raping the Earth for oil. Some folks believe that if you think like I do, that it is natural, that I am pro fossil fuels or something... lol

No you can't change 'Global Warming' to 'Global Climate Change'. Don't you know that for the conservatives it is not a scientific issue but a political issue.
