The oceans are the heat sink for the vast majority of solar radiation striking the planets surface. That visible light radiation varies insignificantly over a solar cycle. So think about that. Constant amount of energy entering the world’s oceans. How can they cool in that situation. Only one way, by giving up the heat. When this occurs, the Manbearpigs from planet Gorion come out and proclaim warming, when in fact the oceans are cooling and giving up some of that constant heat input. That heat leaves the ocean and resides in the atmosphere for a short period of time before exiting into space eventually. To address your point, as the oceans cool, the atmosphere warms. But, that ocean cooling is long term, while the atmospheric heating is short term. A very dynamic situation much too complex for progressive minds to handle. So they will continue to deny their error. But overall as the oceans cool, the average temperature will keep dropping and by the time you reach a snowball Earth situation, a significant amount of solar radiation is reflected back to space by snow and ice. So the dynamic changes as the planet cools or warms.

All well and good. But as the ocean gives up its heat it creates a cooling atmosphere which causes the freezing on clouds to produce snow. This snow usually falls on the northern hemisphere affecting old people and children. However, as you stated, the planet Gorion is actually producing warming at the same time, thus reducing the need for space heaters. Which proves that your theory about Gorion is absolutely wrong!

Do you not see the human element here? Mankind will throw the kind of money at this problem which will reduce the cooling or warming influence of any perceived problem of this drastic weather change. You sir, are an upstart! Your preconceived notions about a real disaster are unbecoming and crazed anti global warming hypocrisy! Thinly veiled in a pro man made global war diatribe!

And you have no clue about html or your spacing would be at least a tad readable! Therefore you are wrong sir, just wrong!
