Exxon Mobil accurately predicted global warming...

I heard some of that yesterday and was aghast for about 12 seconds before remembering that no one really cares. Well, not those who could actually make a difference. This article proves that. Same with guns in the US. Exxon could have done the right thing and still made billions.

 

[Rainblow]

I know, right? And they have the gall to blame it on the consumer for using their product.
Interesting to see what kind of spin, if any, the climate science deniers will put on big oil and gas predictions.

The weather will be more volatile for a while. Coastal areas and shipping lanes will get bitchslapped. And then it settles down with more land having tropical climates. More bikini weather.

So, if we enter an ice age, does that mean the "predictions" were wrong?

Climate change includes large swings of climate variations.

An ice age has nothing to do with man-made climate change, genius.

"even as the company made public statements that contradicted its own scientists' conclusions"
Say one thing in private, another in public. This is the company that gave the world the Exxon Valdez and worked its way down from there.

No.
Ice ages are followed by the earth warming up again. This is known as an interglacial period. It takes 10,000 years+ for greenhouse gas emissions to raise the earth's temperature, I think about 2°C, by the earth orbitting the sun. Due to anthropogenic activities we've increased the speed that greenhouse gas emissions are causing global warming. Since the start of the Industrial age to the present we've managed to raise the global temperature in 200 years to the same levels that historically takes 10,000 years.
By raising the earth's temperature glaciers break off in larger pieces and travel farther distances. This causes cooling and increased sea levels and creates an excessive amount of fresh water in one part of the ocean, let's say the South Sea, which due to currents, displaces that fresh water into the Atlantic Ocean. This creates an excessively salty South Sea and an excessive amount of fresh water in the Atlantic Ocean. The fresh water ocean then pulls carbon emissons out of the atmosphere cooling the earth down until another Ice Age occurs.
Tl;dr - We've increased the speed at which the earth warms up during interglacial periods from 10,000 years to 200 years. Which due to glacial and current activities can trigger an Ice Age, and will, if we don't control our carbon emissions.

It's not the icebergs themselves, it's the melting of the icebergs that's the problem.

You probably need to explain it to the smalldickenergy crowd in terms they can relate to.

Something along the lines of - Lack of emissions control and premature emissions will result in extreme disappointment from the planet.

The icebergs themselves will likely cause major global crises simply by raising ocean levels and threatening shipping lanes.

Civilization writ large could devolve into nuclear Armageddon / a starvation zombie apocalypse long before an anthropogenic climate change inspired premature ice age does it in.

Very true. I expect we'll see climate refugees quite soon.
In fact there is a village in Alaska, Shishmaref, whose residents have decided to move their entire community because of rising sea levels due to climate change. Keep in mind the arctic is warming at 4× the rate of the rest of the world.
Predictions are if we keep emitting greenhouse gases at the rate we do an Ice Age can be triggered by the end of this century.
Pretty bleak future for our grandchildren and great grandchildren.

I stumbled upon this today. Just to point out there are other views, since those who don't agree with "global warming - climate change" must be ignorant, small dicked neanderthals.

Well I'm not sure where you stumbled on it, took me a couple google searches to find it...buried down with all the other 4 Chan bullshit.....
Best $109.88 dollars you ever spent I'm guessing.......

The piece is purely targeted horseshit, which is why it focuses so much time talking about huge amounts of money rather than climate.acience.

You should skip to the last page,where they ask you to subscribe for $110.00 bucks a year for their "news letter".....

Post anything contrary to what you know it alls believe and everyone is wrong but you. Yeah right. Not everyone trusts the government.
But you go on believing what you want to believe. I know that the climate change is BS.

Your green agenda is killing whales and other fish off our east coast right now and eagles and other birds inland. Many of the wind turbines that have been installed are not working. But the company that made them got their profits. So, go ahead and praise your solution.
