Does it matter why? There is a global warming going in as we speak. There is a
very fair chance that in a few years, the icecaps will melt and all the major
coast cities (NYC, Boston, LA, SF, need I continue?) will be flooded. Does it
really matter if it's because of a rebound from the Ice Age, or a result of
pollution? It's happening, and that's been confirmed much more than once.
(one could argue that it matters for the sake of what to do about it; and I
agree to that.)
gotta go now, or I'd expand :-)
