Global Cooling Is Coming -- and Beware the Big Chill, Scientist Warns
Contrary to the commonly held scientific conclusion that the Earth is getting warmer, a scientist who has written more than 150 peer-reviewed papers has unveiled evidence for his prediction that global cooling is coming soon.
The hottest new trend in climate change may be global cooling, some researchers say.
Contrary to the commonly held scientific conclusion that the Earth is getting warmer, Dr. Don Easterbrook, emeritus professor of geology at Western Washington University and author of more than 150 peer-reviewed papers, has unveiled evidence for his prediction that global cooling is coming soon.
“Rather than global warming at a rate of 1 F per decade, records of past natural cycles indicate there may be global cooling for the first few decades of the 21st century to about 2030,” said Easterbrook, speaking on a scientific panel discussion with other climatologists. This, he says, will likely be followed by “global warming from about 2030 to 2060,” which will then be followed by another cooling spell from 2060 to 2090.

Huh?I thought we were going to be under water from the melting ice caps?

:o :o :o :o...yeah cuz ..global warming means ....warm weather ...right?? ::) ::) ::)

Yep it is, it's going to go into a cooler period for the next decade i believe. This is what i've been reading for some time actually. I've even said it on here previously. One thing i find interesting is a lot of naysayers toe the line of 'they can't even predict the whether tomorrow how can they predict the future'? Yet when it shows a cooling period they believe it 100% science is correct. Kind of silly if you ask me. To believe scientists when they tell you what you want but when those same scientists don't discredit them. ???

I think a myth that too many people buy into regarding this issue is the name. Global warming. Basically it's correct but many people take it very literal without understanding the meaning behind it. Essentially the world is warming up, faster than we have seen data for the past, and it is believed to be because of fossil burning, chemical emissions and the like. This does not mean, repeat, does not mean we will not still go through natural cycles of warming and cooling what it means is that those cycles will likely be more ferocious i.e. wilder swings high and low and when looking back in say 100 years there will be a consistent trend of warming over the WHOLE period.
I hope many of you keep this in mind when reading anything regarding global warming, climate change etc.

So what your saying is the weather is getting hotter and colder in waves just as it has done for a billion freaking years.

1. Earthquake = global warming.
2. Tsunami = global warming
3. Rain = global warming
4. Freezing cold = global warming
5. Blazing hot = global warming
6. Windy outside = global warming
7. Leaves fall in the autumn = global warming
8. Snow falls in the winter = global warming
9. Grass grows in spring = global warming
Get the picture yet?

Analyzing non-linear data with linear approximations = look here! I solved another wild guess!
