The Earth isn’t warming right now, is why. It may even be cooling down somewhat.

Five major climate centers around the world agree that average global temperatures have not risen in the past 11 years, according to the BBC. In fact, in eight of those years, global average temperatures dipped a tad.

This issue is far from

settled. It is very likely

that man has affected

the climate on earth but

it is also likely that some

or much of the changes in

climate come from natural

causes and cycles.

Well, if someone were to study interglacial-periods and Ice-Ages, it's easy to see that we are due to be cooling, not warming.

Global warming is a myth - climate change isn't.

So why is the ice melting then ? Is it confused ice ?

This goes in cycles.

The arctic is a little warmer but other places are cooler.

So did the cold air get bored in the arctic and decide to go somewhere else ? Or is it that the jet streams are messed up along with the carbon cycle ?
