5 years later they are still warning that the melting permafrost is going to accelerate global warming slash global climate change slash weather. Let's keep this thread around and see what happens.

It is out of control and will get worse. I like warmer winters but if I get that, some states in US may have to be evacuated cause they get to much heat.
I guarantee the plastics used in your computer were NOT recycled plastic and even if they were, the process to recycle them requires the use of heat that is provided by the burning of fossil fuels in one means or another..

It is a matter of willingness to do what we have to do since it may have started already, our own children may be in trouble while we still are alive. Our life span are also increasing and there will come cures against aging. We can also get into cryonics and perhaps come back.

It is a slow process but we see extremes already. Methane will come with melting, that is 30 times worse than CO2.

It can be melted by any heat. But what is worse, my wife drives her car to work when she can walk

Global warming? Tell that to my testicles that are currently laying on the ground from being frozen off in the -40 degree weather we had this winter.

In 1971 the scientific community was proclaiming the beginning of a a new ice age. These crackpot wannabe scientists have you chasing your tail over the wrong elements of pollutants, but don't let your diatribe be persuaded by recent facts.

Exactly, some will get colder and some will get hotter. Northern US got colder and south is dry.

I recall that and bought an apt down south, but it was a short warning and it may take 10.000 years as a Natural variation. Burning up all coal we got is not one, it never happened before and we must change energysystems anyway, so why take any chances, instead see it as a challenge, as when we started using oil and coal.
92% experts and politicians all over have never agreed before.
