As the Arctic summer comes to an end, scientists have determined that the sea ice has shrunk to the second-smallest size on record, continuing the disturbing trend associated with a warming planet.

    Global Cooling is upon us. How will we grow food when it becomes too cold?

    Exactly. If they weren't then the headline would say, "More Arctic sea ice than last year. Possible hope for end of Global Warming?"

    The old polar bear at Winnipeg Zoo is dying.
    And Al Gore and David Suzuki know why.

    Not quite a record? Damn somebody had their hopes up. Now I'd hope it would of been somebody with money on it, but I highly doubt it...

    Yeah, a few hundred thousand square km is peanuts.
    Barely a difference.

    lakes vs intermittent lakes vs just another field.

    Thats the picture. The earth will still go round the sun. Species will either move, adapt or die out. The climate will change as it has done so for ages and ages.

    The questions are:

    1) How much of this is directly caused by humans?

    2) How much out of whack the natural balance is?

    3) Will the effects be something we are prepared to live with?

    4) Why go out for a hamburger when you have steak at home? (rip paul)
