Responses too a Story on Digg Concerning Global Warming

Filed under: science — 7:43 am

You guys do know that it’s not just the Earth heating up but the whole solar system right? - hollowex

Really?

Actually, on a larger scale, the entire Universe has been cooling since the great big bang, so we’re actually running under an eternal Universal cooling cycle from the very beginning :) - seandaly

While you are correct that the universe is cooling… Our solar system is showing signs of heating on all of the planets. I assume this is due to the solar system getting closer to the galactic equator of the milky way. Conversely I assume the ice ages are cycled around when we reach maximum distance from the galactic equator… I could be wrong though…

Sept 20, 2005 - “And for three Mars summers in a row, deposits of frozen carbon dioxide near Mars’ south pole have shrunk from the previous year’s size, suggesting a climate change in progress.”

Oct 9, 2002 - “BIRMINGHAM, Ala.–Pluto is undergoing global warming, as evidenced by a three-fold increase in the planet’s atmospheric pressure during the past 14 years,a team of astronomers from Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT),…”

1978 - “Abstract
………………..
Observational arguments in favor of such a cloud are presented, and implications of the presence of a nearby cloud are discussed, including possible changes in terrestrial climate. It is suggested that the postulated interstellar cloud should encounter the solar system at some unspecified time in the ‘near’ future and might have a drastic influence on terrestrial climate in the next 10,000 years.”

Aug 18, 2003 -”This weaker configuration of the magnetic shield is letting in two to three times more stardust than at the end of the 1990s. Moreover, this influx could increase by as much as ten times until the end of the current solar cycle in 2012.” - 2012 is when we transverse the galactic equator.
