    Breaking News! Man-Made Global Warming IS going to make us warmer!

    But not quite "day after tomorrow timescales".

    http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/sci/tech/7817684.stm

    The duo combined direct observations with projections from 23 global climate models that contributed to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change's (IPCC) 2007 global assessment.

    They calculate there is greater than 90% probability that by 2100, the average growing-season temperatures in the tropics and subtropics will be higher than any temperatures recorded there to date.



    So now it's delayed until 2100?

    I'm sure that "hockey stick" graph showed the temp rising in the next few years, not 90+ years.

      Mine said -12. What kind of car do you have? Maybe I should buy one.

        Volvo.

        My guess would be that the difference is due to the fact we are in different countries not that we drive different cars.

              So if(when?) they are wrong in 2100 can we sue?

              I predict that by 2100 that all the sea will have evaporated......

                Look at Newtons laws, Einsteins theories, Darwin

                not a 'might', 'maybe' , 'possibly' or other caveat amongst them.
                But this load of codswallop.........


                In December Al Gore said that there will be no ice in the Arctic in five years. Now he says there 'might' be no ice in the Arctic in five years.

                In other words, whatever happens he will have been right all along. These people should be writing horoscopes for the Sun.

                  They applied and the Sun told them to four cough, their predictions were too zany!!
