Ocean Cooling to Briefly Halt Global Warming, Researchers Say
Briefly, huh? I guess we'll just have to wait and see about that. These climate folks take Whack-A-Mole to a whole new level.Parts of North America and Europe may cool naturally over the next decade, as shifting ocean currents temporarily blunt the global-warming effect caused by mankind, Germany's Leibniz Institute of Marine Sciences said. "Those natural climate variations could be stronger than the global-warming trend over the next 10-year period," Wood said in an interview. "Without knowing that, you might erroneously think there's no global warming going on." "If we don't experience warming over the next 10 years, it doesn't mean that greenhouse-gas warming is not with us," Keenlyside said in an interview. "There can be natural fluctuations that may mask climate change in the short term." Posted by: eltoroverde 2008-05-01 |
