Another Ice Age?

Thu., Jan. 19, 2012

Based on Gary Warren’s Jan. 11 screed (“Global warming a scam”) on the benefits of global warming, should we infer that we will soon be enveloped in another Ice Age, “an ice sheet one mile high,” if we are indeed able to reduce gaseous emissions?

Certainly a novel scientific theory. Hmmm, desert or ice, that’s a tough one.
