Global Warming Will Cause - The Coming Ice Age
--The 30% increase in atmospheric CO2 over the past 100 years is from oceans releasing CO2 because they are heating up. Oceans heat the air, not the other way around.
--The oceans are heating because of undersea volcanoes, because of the movement of the earth's crust. Scientists recently discovered over 1,100 volcanoes near Easter Island! Some are huge - over 1.5 miles high. And we have only mapped 5% of the ocean so far!
--Most of us were taught in school that there was only one big ice age. Since that time, much new information has been learned. We have in fact had hundreds of ice ages. Many of them were "mini" ice ages, where most of Europe and the North American continent were covered in thousands of feet of ice all year round. However, at those times, temperatures below the ice line were only about 5 degrees F less than today, and temperatures at the equator were the same as today.

The sun is electromagnetic. That's what causes sun spots. These are increasing at the moment. The earth also is electromagnetic. At different times, magnetic north changes position, sometimes a little bit and sometimes doing a full reversal with magnetic south. It is possible that these changes are caused by our changing position in the galaxy.
In the past, when there were magnetic reversals, volcanic activity, earthquakes, ice ages and extinctions happened at the same time. New research indicates that ice ages do not start off slowly. They happen within a very short space of time - EVEN AS LITTLE AS TWO OR THREE YEARS. Worldwide temperatures in the past have dropped by 20 degrees F ALMOST OVERNIGHT.
Ice ages happen with regularity every 11,500 years. The last mini ice age ended almost 11,500 years ago.
Snow makes ice. When there is enough snow, it compacts the underneath snow into ice. Then it starts to flow south. That's how glaciers get made.
One inch of rain produces 10 inches of snow. In 2007 part of Colorado received THIRTY FEET of snow in ONE STORM. See the entry for Jan 7 2007 at http://www.iceagenow.com/Record_Lows_2007.htm
It's cold enough in the Arctic right now to cause an ice age. All that is needed is more moisture to produce enough snow. This is being provided by warming oceans caused by undersea volcanoes.
There are many indications that we will enter an ice age within our lifetime. Visit www.iceagenow.com to see the list of glaciers that are GROWING. (This is not reported in the media).
Al Gore's movie "An Inconvenient Truth" is mostly false. However, there is one thing that he got right: warming oceans can stop the oceanic "conveyor belt" which warms the northern part of the world. That can cause an ice age in a remarkably short space of time. It's strange that he didn't spend more time talking about he consequences of that happening.
The Oceanic Conveyor belt - the only thing keeping northern Europe and northern America free of ice.
Update: April 18 2007
Russian and the USA have announced a plan to build an underground tunnel between Siberia and the USA. Is this because they are planning for the next ice age, when Siberia will likely be free of ice? And planning later to extend the tunnel down to the ice-free parts of the USA? Here's another map of which lands were covered in ice during the last ice age:

Why This is Important to Everyone
Even if you don't live in an area that will be covered in hundreds or thousands of feet of ice, I strongly urge you to read "Not by Fire, but by Ice" to get an idea of how it's not just about an ice age. Because it's all to do with magnetic reversals of the poles. Direclty or indirectly, that is what is causing the increases in earthquakes, volcanoes, droughts and flooding and weird weather. And it is going to get worse.
When the ice age comes, everything happens at once - ice, volcanic activity, earthquakes and extinctions.
The worldwide supply of food willl be the thing that is most greatly affected by all of this, at least for several years. Without regular seasons and good weather, little can be grown, even in areas that aren't under ice. And if one of the big volcanoes go during this time, then we are all in for a lot of trouble. See our article "Global Cataclycsm in 535 A.D. - History's Greatest Secret".

"Not by Fire, but by Ice" by Robert Felix. A book that I urge everyone to read. The Author is an architect who has laboriously read through enough scientific papers so that the reference section is TWENTY EIGHT pages long. He puts it all together in a way that makes a lot of sense and in also in ways that anyone can understand it. See www.iceagenow.com.
