You see, both situations occur .... that's the earth's climate cycle ... we have glacial periodss (ice ages) and interglacial periods, where the earth is either coming OUT of an ice age (getting warmer, which is a very good thing for most living things) or we are on our way back INTO an ice age (getting colder, which is not a good thing for most living things).

So, you brilliant CD SCIENTISTS here please explain how you would conclude global cooling in that cycle if both warming and cooling = global warming? Hint: you're painting yourselves into a corner, but it's a corner you can easily get yourselves out of ... all that is required is to utilize that brain that you have obviously been neglecting ... and embrace a very easy to understand concept: "hotter = warmer" and "colder = cooler" !!!

I know you can do it ... you were born with more than enough mental ability to grasp such elementary concepts. Fact is, you need to work too hard to believe the opposite. And you look very silly when you do.
Tight back atcha. What else can you expect from a Texas Republican climate change denier?
That is, if you meant "faintest".

If you want a primer on how it happens this is it global warming can lead to cooling.

Seriously this is like 6th grade science class.
Sorry to inform you, but this is today's 6th grade science ... when I was in 6th grade we were not being taught that CO2 was a poison gas, like 6th graders are being told now.

Also, you're leaving out a few physics details about melting sea ice and freezing fresh water. #1, sea ice has negligable salinity over and above fresh water ice, which is why you can take sea ice and melt it for drinking water. In essense ... ice is ice, once it becomes ice. #2, pressure plays a role in the freezing/melting point too ... such pressure that exists at the mid point, and bottom of an ice shelf, measured against the top. So it ain't all about surface temperatures, if you REALLY want to talk physics at an advanced level beyond 6th grade. That is, if you are comfortable doing so?

How's it going down there in Texas, anyway? Still trying to eliminate critical thinking skills in schools?

GWers are really too stupid to live. They should all sacrifice themselves in a mass suicide for the sake of healing the planet from all the hot gas they expel. Let's start in Quebec.

You'll just need to rely on that advanced intellect you believe you have to discern what I meant to type ... there will likely be more opportunities for you, since I'm using a very small and very crappy tablet, with an even smaller and crappier keyboard, which is a bad combo with my 56 year old eyes.

Now, if you have anything of real substance to contribute, don't hold back ... and don't waste everyone else's time correcting typos. Okay ?

PS. It also reveals a weakness in position to address typos rather than points ...

Climate change deniers, bought and paid for by the Koch brothers, Prison Planet and Fox News are too stupid to live. They should all sacrifice themselves in a mass suicide, starting with republicans in Texas and California.

If you cant respond like an adult, do you typically tell the other person to kill themselves? Classy.

The warmers have been proven wrong time and again.

The science is not settled. Its only theory. Theory is not fact. Fact it stopped warming over 15 years ago.
Fact: the MWP was decidedly warmer then than now.
Fact: all GW figures have been revamped time and again to suit their masters theories.
Fact: Australia and Canada have stopped this carbon tax foolishness.
Theory: the earth is warming. Not proven

Fact: the earth heats and cools periodically.

Oh, I don't think we could even hope to do that as well as you liberals have managed to do in that area, and on a national scale no less!! At least, according to the world ranking charts which has seen the US plummet from #1 (when I was in school) to that of a third world nation, as it sadly sits today.

But that is really the only possible outcome when you train kids to think backwards, and embrace contradictory ideas. The human mind is damaged by this, as it wants rational thoughts, and doesn't do well with irrational ones, like warmer is warmer, and colder is warmer too.

Each time an irrational thought like this is allowed to take up residence in a person's mind, damage occurs. Given enough incidents like this, what you wind up with is a liberal for life

Hmmm .... I may have just uncovered a secret here ... maybe there is a method to you all's madness?

All this Orwellian double think ... good lord. Nobody is denying that the climate is changing, because it is ALWAYS changing ... it's either on a slow increasing trend, or slow decreasing trend! Nobody I know is denying that. What we deny is that CO2 has any role in it, since CO2 levels only increase as a RESPONSE to a warming cycle which occurred 800 years before the rise in CO2.

In other words, we believe in cause and effect, in that order, rather than what you're trying to sell, which is the reverse.

Sorry ... but the dent did not cause the accident ... it was the accident that caused the dent.

ACCI-DENT. get it?
