10. Climate Change – An imminent ice age debunked
In 2005 the media told us we were on the brink of another ice age. What happened? SOURCES: (in chronological order) Movie clip at the beginning from “The Day After Tomorrow” Broeker’s hypothesis that melting ice will interrupt thermohaline circulation: “Thermohaline Circulation, the Achilles Heel of Our Climate System; Will Man-Made CO2 Upset the Current Balance?” — Wallace S. Broeker, Science (Nov 28 1997) Linkage of glaciation to shut down of AMOC: “A model for Northern Hemisphere continental ice sheet variation” — RG Johnson and BT McClure, Quaternary Research (Sep 1976) See also “Was the Younger Dryas Triggered by a Flood?” Wallace S. Broecker, Science (May 26, 2006) “Slowing of the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation at 25° N” — Harry L. Bryden et al, Nature (Dec 1, 2005) NEWSPAPER HEADLINES SHOWN: “Britain faces Big Freeze as Gulf Stream Loses Strength” — The Times (Dec 1, 2005) “New Gulf Stream fears bring UK Ice Age warning” — The Evening Standard (Sep 6, 2001) “Scientists probing a dying current bring worst climate fears to the surface.” — The Australian, (Dec 5, 2005) “Fears of Big Freeze as Scientists Detect Slower Gulf Stream” — The Independent (Dec 1, 2005) RealClimate quote “while continued monitoring of this key climatic area is clearly warranted, the imminent chilling of the (sic) Europe is a ways off yet” at www.realclimate.org Richard Wood saying Britain and Scandinavia should cool if Gulf Stream slowdown was real: “Failing ocean current …
(con’t…) A Mammoth with food still in its stomach means it froze instantly. The mammoth couldn’t have been in a place where there is a changing of the seasons, because the food would have decomposed. Now, during winter months, there is little vegetation. What on Earth would a mammoth live off of in the Artic if it did not freeze instantly?
What about Discovery magazine’s article called “The Global Warming Controversy” before 1992? It spoke of paleontologists who took samples in the Arctic and discovered through core samples that every previous Ice Age had temperatures warmer than today’s yearly temeratures? They discovered that previous Ice Ages occured not only in warmer and warmer temperatures but also occured more frequently. Consider these studies including the Mammoth with undecomposed food still in its stomach?
wow, this guy must be embarassed. imagine being so wrong and yet having a british accent. lollll
the current stopped july 2010. welcome to reality.
well i guess you were wrong lol
Anthropogenic Global Warming is caused by human increases in fossil fuel CO2 PPM from 300 PPM for the last 800,000 years at least to the industrial revolution, to 390 PPM now.
“Shutzpah”? Oy vey! The “ch” sound in “chutzpah” is a glottal fricative–made the same way as winging a hocker!
Type in Google – Winter Storm:Map shows most of the Northern Hemispere covered in snow, taken on the 3rd of feb.
Everything is ALLRIGHT, no problems whatsoever! Why bother? haha.
@potholer54 the reason i say all this is because, no matter what anyone says, or what data they have or what job they are in doesn’t give them the right to state they know what’s going to happen, and give people a false sense of security, putting them at risk.. all i can say is this….prepare for the worst, because a smart person, is prepared and alive. and ignorant sheep, end up dead. I’m not claiming to be Noah, and you may well laugh at me…but you wont be laughing if i’m right
@potholer54 These idiots will be sat under a glacier a mile thick, before they accept they are in an ice age, and if these pillocks on these news programs keep telling them they are not in an ice age, even though under a mile of ice, they will still trust the idiot on the TV and argue on here that people dont know what they are talking about…all i can say is this….Earth quakes, mass animal kills due to electromagnetic fields from earth quakes, storms from hell, and flooding beyond belief
@potholer54 when you block this circulation the engine overheats and the head gasket blows, the same with the conveyors, you cool them too much or place a pole in an ocean conveyor that circulates warmer water, your going to shut the thing down, this cooling will generate cooler weather systems and bring the temperature down, its not rocket science,it will bring the temp down until the conveyors and ocean currents start to find new paths, look at the flooding and earth quakes,this will get worse
@potholer54 As you may know, the UK is feeding off a siberian jet stream due to the planets crust being in another place, This film is rubbish btw,, we have an idiot telling people dont worry…well you all better worry, because the conveyor passes warm waters around the globe, and these sea temperatures effect or moderate the climate, when you cut off warm water in these water streams, you effect the whole climate. Its the same as a car engines cooling system, but keeping it warm, not cool.
@potholer54 The poles have changed, or should i say the earth has slipped, the poles stay in the same place relative to solar orbit etc….Now the ice is melting at the poles but will reform again when the higher solar EM field kicks in again, maybe next year, but the North pole is shifting 40 miles a year towards Russia due to this, it could be a gravitational effect due to low solar EM fields, but the earths core is holding the planet in orbit.
low sun spot activity at the moment,la nina the cooling effect in the pacific are contributing to colder winters as well.
Its the sun…and cosmic rays from interstellar space…thats all thanks.
@washmlakid Dude…all I am saying is the TITLE…the TITLE…the TITLE is what makes the claim it is science…that is why I clicked it in the first place. That is my point, ok. If your a physicist then you have intelligence and you will understand this, drop it! This conversation serves neither one of us.
You made your point…I made mine…leave it at that and let’s move on.
@aztecking21122012 The whole series is about de-bunking the ‘facts’ that uneducated people are passing off as science. Several soi-disant experts, widely quoted in the media, actually have no more expertise in this area than I do (my degree is in Physics). It makes no claim to be science, rather the opposite. It is clearly stated that the author is not a climatologist in any sense and that his sole purpose is to point out that one should check the facts, not blindly believe whatever one is told.
@MrGangaheaD88 every year as much as, or more than, this oil spill. Look up how much of the Louisiana coast has been eroded in the past few decades and explain to me how the huge loss of habitat for marine animals and plants due to it compares to that caused by the oil spill.
@MrGangaheaD88 As potholer54 said in this and numerous other videos, what are the facts and to how many decimal places? From the language used, I suspect you’re British; I also suspect you’ve been listening to too many Greens propaganda pieces.
What gases? How does ecosystem damage along the American gulf coast effect global climate? I lived in southeast Louisiana for over 20 years, still have many family there. Trust me, the biosphere in the Bayou Country is affected by the storms —
@washmlakid bollocks all the gases coming out of the ground WOULD cause severe damge to ecosystems and in turn would change climate.
The global warming theory is false, but what about a polar shift? That would also explain the melting of the ice along with increased volcano activity around the earth, earthquakes, etc.
@washmlakid Ran out of space…I mostly think it represents itself as science, the title alone says it. If it were not science then the title should be changed and a disclaimer added. He presents himself as a scientist.
@washmlakid I do believe that an ice age is imminent and not because of the GOM spill. I have thought about it and checked the facts, the ones I have found so far anyway. I don’t find this video educational, as a matter of fact exactly the opposite. It clouds the issue in my opinion. Just my opinion, OK? There are so many bad videos out there and I am trying to find good ones, and this video gets in my way. I wasted time watching it, I guess that’s my point.
@aztecking21122012 Why would anyone think this video is science? A well thought out piece of journalism certainly, but not science. Potholer54 has stated he’s a recognized journalist and has a degree in the sciences. This is an educational video on a topic currently in the news, which has been the subject of huge amounts of hype, and needed a voice of reason to debunk. The point is to get you to check the facts, not believe anything you hear or read without checking.
@MrGangaheaD88 The only thing the Gulf Stream and the Gulf of Mexico have in common is the word ‘gulf’. The oil spill last year was confined to a relatively small area in the Gulf and any small dilute amount of oil which eventually reaches the North Atlantic will have virtually no effect on climate. Also, as potholer54 has shown in other videos, climatologists have shown that weather in one part of the globe in one year doesn’t foretell global climate in that same year or any year.
