I find that very hard to believe.

Can't say that I have an answer but denying the problem is absurd. The rapid rise in global temperatures coincide with mankind's release of greenhouse gasses. I guess I'd start there.


Now we're starting to get somewhere.

Now then, let's go ahead and assume that we finally find causation and not just correlation, even though that is currently not the case. What are we going to do to force Asia to cooperate with whatever plan we have to eliminate our greenhouse gas emissions?

Someone already nailed the answer to this... weaponized Zika virus.

Like a karmic device come to punish our planetary transgressions, jellyfish thrive on the chaos humans create. Overfishing wipes out their competitors and predators; warmer water from climate change encourages the spread of some jellies; pollution from fertilizers causes the ocean to lose its oxygen, a deprivation to which jellyfish are uniquely tolerant; coastal developments provide convenient, safe habitat for their polyps to hide. In addition, the great mixing of species transported across the world in the ballasts of ships opens up new, vulnerable ecosystems to these super-adaptors.

Yea, cause it's a lie. There will be lots of animals that will be affected in a positive way by warmer oceans, off the top of my head sharks will be one of them.

Or...all the volcanoes? Or...methane from the oceans and ocean floor?

This is the only valid answer, and the gnome must go first, as he cares more than everyone else. I promise to go after he goes, of course...and I never lie.

I though it was going to be an ice age?

Make up your mind.

Yes, but until the true believers start suggesting this, I'm not going to believe this problem is near as serious as they want us to believe.

And there's no telling what it would do to the ocean current circulation

No significant difference. The world's major currents are predominantly wind driven.

Do you even Coriolis bro?

Of course it has, but over the course of millions of years not a couple (primarily one) centuries.


Are you suggesting that this has never happened before over a couple of centuries? That it truly is an unprecedented event? How do we know? The earth has been around a whole hell of a lot longer than we have.

Are you really suggesting it is unassailable that the increasing temperature trends are primarily the fault of manmade energy emissions? Who is really being unscientific here?
