I had heard (when i was working at the newspaper) that human interference in global temperature could only amount to at most 3-4% or so total global warming (if not less) and that the recent changes are just another example of the continuing climate shifts that our earth goes through every century. I had some sites recently sent to me and they are quite interesting, apparently our sister plant, Mars, is going through something of a warming too... maybe its all those damn NASA probe emissions?
And just the other day i sat and watched the History Channel's 'The little ice age: The big chill' based of a book that reveals a climate shift between 1300 to 1850 called global cooling. Show more examples of our worlds constantly evolving pattern. According to the show it caused clataclysmic events and hazard the changed the path of humanity taking credit for the frozen Viking colonists in Greenland, accelerated the Black Death in Europe, decimated the Spanish Armada, and helped trigger the French Revolution in the 21st century.
Now these were only a few degrees but drastically change the natural balance of crops, water location and created once fruitful occupied areas into inhabitable barren tundras. which scares me as we inch toward slow water shortages and uncertain famine.
In my mind the best we can hope for is that it will be the smaller an shorter of the global changes and not to make it any worse than it already is.
