Sweet ... that means that places like the Yukon, Russia and Alaska will become really livable.

As the sun continues to evolve, grow and get hotter, the climates of earth and Mars will continue to warm. Long before the sun has become a red giant, earth will have lost its oceans due to boiling off. This is not billions of years off. Much sooner, although by then humanity will have evolved into something else or died off altogether anyway. Humanity might have taken its ecosystem into deep space before then or not--looks like not--but that won't stop evolution, and humanity will have become something else by then. Whether it stays and dies with dignity or leaves, the billion hours of a species will end.

This global warming is due to the sun cycling more activity and then will return to normal. Then we will have ice caps enlarging and the winter season will be more violent. The last time I heard we have no control over the suns cycle.

The sun will either get better or worse. If it's going to get worse, then earth will become a more hostile place IMO.

Not anything we humans are in control of though.

They must have built that bridge underwater. Either that or the water was dramatically lower then too, centuries before Al Gore invented the SUV.

Bring back DDT!!

The senseless ban on DDT has killed more people than Hitler, Stalin, Mao, & Pol Pot combined!! If things are going to be warming up, we'll need it!!

(I really don't think that global warming exists, but I do believe that DDT should be broght back as a cheap, SAFE, effective way to control insect born diseases)

Global warming = Bullsh*t

Global warming "science" = Another Enviro-WHACKO "scientist" trying to get, or keep, a government grant.

Global warming = Enviro-WHACKO leftists trying to push their un-American agenda with so-called global warming as a "club" to use against us.

The weather comes in cycles, and it has for THOUSANDS and THOUSANDS of years.

We humans have little, if nothing to do with it.

The sun will continue to do its thing (hopefully), bovine creatures will continue to fart into the atmosphere, and those events, and many more natural events like them, will make the weather conditions change consistently over time.
