    Latif, is a professor at the Leibniz Institute at Germany’s Kiel University and an author of the U.N.’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) report. Latif is a prominent scientist in the UN’s IPCC climate research group.

    Latif thinks the cold snap Americans, Brits, and Europeans have been suffering through is the beginning of another cycle, this one a down cycle. He says we’re in for 30 years of cooler temperatures. While maybe it is a harsh prediction, he calls it a “mini ice age”.
    To summarise, yes we had global warming but according a prominent member of the IPCC commitee we are now entering a new phase "A Mini Ice Age"....refereed paper to follow.

      Why can't we counter the warming by releasing loads of stuff that has no greenhouse potential like hydrogen or Helium? If we all took up ballooning as a hobby it might work.

        What about planting more trees to suck up the carbon dioxide?

        Oh wait, we need the land to house immigrants.
