![]() How do you tell? In chaos theory, now called complexity science, when a system is driven far from equilibrium and to the edge. To it's breaking point. Something rather unique happens. The system behavior bifurcates into two, and only two pre-images. These two pre-images, static and chaotic, display the only two likely sustainable futures for that system. And in advance so we all can see. This remarkable effect, aside from it's obvious uses in such things as stock trading, can also help with this subject. When near the breaking point a system will begin to display it's equal and opposite extremes in possibility. Since this problem involves global temp, then the opposite extremes are of course hot and cold. If we should see such bifurcations of our biosphere into cold/static and hot/chaotic extremes, we should begin to worry ..a whole bunch! Alarm over dramatic weakening of Gulf Stream · Slowing of current by a third in 12 years could bring more extreme weather · Temperatures in Britain likely to drop by one degree in next decade http://www.guardian.co.uk/science/st...654803,00.html The melting of the ice caps may cause Europe to quickly chill/freeze/static The disruption of the Atlantic currents are causing our part of the world to quickly warm and become stormy/chaotic. Gee! I wonder what that means~ Jonathan s |

Gee! I wonder what that means~ Jonathan The last -- what is called the "Little" -- Ice Age began in about the mid 14th century and lasted until about the mid 19th century. Caused by Man of course: All those horsecart horse farts and hut, castle, and blacksmith shop fireplace smokes during the several hundred years previous producing greenhouse effects. Those hundreds of years previous being a global warming period. Once more caused by Man. On a less humorous historic note, even back then it was believed that every climate change for the worse, and every other bad event effecting Man and the Earth, was caused solely by Man's evil activities. The scientists, the priests, could always "prove it." GLB |
