It’s the meltwater from Greenland/Arctic keeping a section of the north Atlantic subpolar gyre cooler. thank you nice

It appears to go in hand with greater warming over the south Atlantic, which would suggest something to do with the ocean overturning circulation, but that’s just speculation on my part.

Who do you believe? More bogus arguments and skewed logic. Give it a rest guys.

What you see in the film are the graphs of the astronauts’ vital signs slowly but inexorably going flat, as the visually-sanitized deed is done.

Since, in the intervening 40 years, our collective cinematic tastes have devolved to the point where nothing less than graphic splattery gore gets attention, perhaps it would be appropriate for someone to take that approach to the climate change maps. And yes, I’m as serious as a proverbial heart attack about this:

Set up an interactive climate map, where mousing-over any region on the globe brings up the most brutally graphic pictures of the consequences: Floating corpses of flood drowning victims here, skeletal children with distended bellies there, victims of water wars over there, heat wave casualties elsewhere.

This could also be done as a video and posted on video sharing sites.

That’s the same self-destructive logic that the re-puke-ians in congress are using in denying the 97% of scientist.
