now, the mechanism is likely a global warming, causing ice cap melting and a change in albedo, causeing cooling, leading to ice age, thats the generally accepted mechanism. Its a form of control and cycle. Will the co2 going beyond what it gets too normally in that cycle change things? and how much?

We just had a ice age 10,000 years ago, but it seems humanity will cause another another, soon. 10,000 years ago is recent in terms of ice age cycles. >> <img src=http://aycu15.webshots.com/image/4254/2003253592012895950_rs.jpg><P> > > Note that if the current CO2 concentration were to be plotted on this graph, if > we be off the top of the graph. CO2 charts spanning hundreds of thousands of years show the CO2 levels go in cycles. Then all of a sudden CO2 levels explode ~5 times beyond any known CO2 levels between now and the dawn of the industrial age. That and a lot more are the reasons over 99% of such scientists (over 2000) now believe humanity is the cause of Global Warming. Regards, Paul Lowrance
