Wow. The commenters are, for the most part, eating up this crap. What caused the MWP??? That’s easy, but you don’t want to hear it. You’d rather point to a REGIONAL variation in temperature and somehow think that means the rapidly increasing temps today have any relation. Increasing CO2 is not the only cause – it’s the cause for the current warming (given that they’re now 100 ppm above the natural high level of CO2 of 300 ppm). Other cause exist to temporarily warm a region on Earth. Low volcanic activity, increased solar radiation or an increase in the strength of the Gulf Stream can bring more warm air north. That alone can do it and the following LIA is indicative of the warming decreasing salinity in the North Atlantic and reducing the Gulf Stream. That is happening today as a side effect of climate change and will cool Europe while the rest of the planet continues to warm. Also, the MWP saw approx 0.2 increase in global temps – that’s over hundreds of years. We are currently seeing a 0.2 increase every decade.

Facts. They do the open minded good.

If global climate change science was only about temperatures in one or two locations–then you might have something here. But there is a lot more to the science than local temperatures…like global temperatures, composition of atmospheric gasses, ocean currents, glacial ice. An example of the problem that does not include temperature per se :Slowly melting glacial ice is the main water source for many people living near mountain glaciers. When the glacier completely melts there will be no more water. And it won’t matter if the earth is 1 degree or 10 degrees hotter, because those people still won’t have ANY water supply. It really isn’t about warming, its about global changes that will have a variety of effects across the globe.
